Forever Arsenal! Sports mad - Middlesex CC, and England at anything. Happy with my Sue. Love her to death. How she puts up with me i don't know!

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

That's why I don't listen to it anymore

[alan haywood @alan_alh]

wtf happened to @talkSPORT used be a great station for sports fans, now they just act like a bunch of amateur YouTubers and teenagers , fucking embarrassing

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

54 still a season ticket holder

[ADÉMỌ́LÁ @Oye440]

🗣️ Gooners, how long have you been Arsenal fans?

Me: 24 years 🔴⚪️

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

Absolutely

[Layth @laythy29]

If you’re an Arsenal supporter near or far who’s suffered & cheered & laughed & despaired & felt such deep, deep joy over the last few weeks savour it all. One day May 2026 will be 20 years ago, but you’ll still have your memories of such an incredible month to be a Gooner ❤️

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

Absolutely

[THE FOOTBALL SPEAKER BOX @footyspeakerbox]

I’ve seen a handful of tweets talking about a negative experience at the Parade.

There were 1.5million people there today, naturally there will be a few bad experiences.

All in all, a wonderful day with the vast majority celebrating our club and it’s achievements with the players

Together

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

What a day

[Charles Watts @charles_watts]

Yeah, so getting home from the parade was pretty mental wasn’t it???

Never walked so far to find an open tube station in my life. Utter chaos for miles and miles 😂

What a day though. What a demonstration of the sheer size of this club.

Champions 🔴⚪️ 🏆

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

Yes we are all paying for it

[Heidi Alexander MP @Heidi_Labour]

Today we've renationalised the UK's largest train operator.

Passengers will see fewer last-minute cancellations, cleaner toilets and more services to Gatwick Airport.

We are building Great British Railways. 🇬🇧🚆

Absolutely great atmosphere

[Adam Keys @adamkeys_]

There’s something incredibly special about #Arsenal that you only get when you experience it. Today was a day that will give so many a newfound connection with the club, and spurn on a new generation of fans. From oblivion to here in six years; Mikel Arteta truly is a genius.

I think there is now a total lack of public interest in this storyline. The mainstream media needs to understand that many people have seen through what they perceive to be a sustained attempt to undermine and destabilise Keir Starmer through an endless cycle of Westminster intrigue and media circus.

The reality is that most voters are not spending their time worrying about private messages, internal party gossip or political score settling. They are concerned about the cost of living, public services, housing, economic stability and the future direction of the country.

What is particularly striking is that despite months of speculation, briefing and commentary about potential challengers, there remains no obvious alternative candidate who has set out a compelling programme that differs significantly from the current leadership. Much of the discussion appears to be driven by personalities rather than policies.

At present, the public appears far less interested in leadership manoeuvring than many within the political and media establishment assume. If anything, the constant focus on internal drama risks having the opposite effect, reinforcing the view that some are more interested in Westminster politics than the issues that affect people's daily lives.

As things stand today, Keir Starmer would remain the overwhelming favourite in any Labour leadership contest, and the continued attempts to manufacture political excitement around hypothetical challenges seem increasingly detached from public opinion.

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

Are you mad the man ab idiot I'll put that politely

[Paul Gibson @PaulGib27705714]

WE'RE SAFER AND STRONGER WITH STARMER

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

So how are you going to change it

[Chris Ward MP @chriswardmp]

Southern and Thameslink are now back in public ownership, where they belong 🚂❤️

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

It certainly was

[HandofArsenal @HandofArsenal]

Madness. What a sight.

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

[You Are My Arsenal @YouAreMyArsenal]

@hidupkanlam @Arsenal Yeah let’s replace the guy who built us into Premier League title winners (finishing better than Pep 2 seasons in a row) and into CL contenders (took Pep 2 tried to win it with City) - we’re good mate. If you can’t handle it then perhaps supporting this club isn’t for you

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

Are you lot mad us working people are paying for it

[Al Carns @AlistairCarns]

⬇️⬇️👍👍
The money you spend on your ticket will now go back into fixing your train. Not a shareholder’s yacht.

This is what we were elected to do.

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

No question proved that that today and the last couple of weeks

[talkSPORT @talkSPORT]

Arsenal fans are out in full force today and have PACKED the streets for their parade. 🤯

Is London red? 🔴👀

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

So true

[Gooner Chris @ArsenalN7]

I have never in all my life seen so many fans from one team gathering together. We are MASSIVE

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

Totally agree

[Ian Mitchell @Imzattack]

I’ve been on previous parades but never seen anything like this one today. London is completely red and joyous. What a day this team has given us all. #ThanksMikel

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

Idiot us people are paying for it you wonder why we can't pay bills

[Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer]

I promised we would fix our broken railways.

Today Southern, Thameslink, Great Northern and Gatwick Express return to public ownership. Run for the public good, not private profit.

This Labour government is putting passengers first.

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

Absolutely

[Richard Gray @rmvgray]

Unlike some !!!! True fans support not moan when the team lose

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

Yes

[Colin Spencer @ColinSpenc4257]

DID YOU, ITS A YES FROM ME.

[Iain Messenger @mess1967]

Likewise

[Clive @clivepafc]

It’s match day - Normally my stomach is doing somersaults.

Can’t explain it but I am at peace.

I know we are going to do well.

I feel we are ready - that doesn’t guarantee a win but it for me it feels like this is our level.

We will be here again - enjoy 🔴🏆👊🏾
