36 years ago today, Arsenal were handed a 2 point deduction for misconduct on the pitch after a brawl in their game against Man United a few weeks earlier.
Man United were only deducted one point, but Arsenal still won the league title & only lost 1 game.
Following the incident, Arsenal manager George Graham addressed the team and said
“The majority of the media are enjoying it. Enjoying us getting all this stick.”
Graham also famously said
“ it’s fine that people hate us, it’s part of our history”
Vvsmygwen’s headline show last night was nothing short of historic.
The performance, the visuals, the support acts, the crowd engagement.
We are watching a superstar in the making.
