Rainbows appear at an angle of around 42 degrees, making 42 one of natureโs most fascinating numbers.
In computing, 42 is the ASCII code for the asterisk (*), the wildcard symbol that can stand in for almost anything.
Even in medicine, donated blood has a shelf life of 42 days, helping save countless lives.
But why 42?
Because, ladies and gentlemen, itโs been 42 days since Arsenal won the league title.
In 2016, during a pre-season trip to Seattle, a young Declan Rice was handed the No. 41 shirt by West Hamโs kitman. With the lower squad numbers already taken by senior players, academy prospects were typically given higher numbers.
Rice made his senior debut wearing No. 41, kept it throughout his rise at West Ham, and when he joined Arsenal in 2023, he chose to keep the number, prompting the club to make a rare exception to its usual squad number policy.
But why did he choose to keep the number 41 shirt and why bring up No. 41 today?
Because, ladies and gentlemen, it has been 41 days since Arsenal won the league title.

โจThe Flood lasted 40 days and 40 nights. Moses spent 40 days on Mount Sinai. The Israelites wandered the wilderness for 40 years. Jesus fasted for 40 days and Christ appeared for 40 days after his resurrection.
In Islam, 40 is also deeply significant:
The Qur'an associates 40 with maturity.

In football, it's been exactly 40 days since Arsenal won the Premier League.
There are 66 books in the Bible.
The Bible is divided into two parts: the Old Testament and the New Testament.
There are 39 books in the Old Testament and 27 books in the New Testament.
But today, I want you to pay attention to the 39 books of the Old Testament.
I know some of you are wondering why.
Because today marks 39 days since Arsenal won the Premier League title.
