Excellent and interesting article:thumbup:
A good read, thanks - that Caesar Jenkyns sounds a right clogger!
A couple of things I hope you won't mind me pointing out;-
1. The spelling of Caesyr Jenkins in the caption that appears under the photograph of him is different from how it appears in the body of the article.
2. It looks like you've missed out the number of goals Aaron Ramsey has scored for Arsenal.
Nice article :thumbup:
i'll ask the guy now because i dont have the logins to do it, hopefully he can, annoys me that i've done that
Im pretty sure that as a result of the goal let in by Dan Lewis, theres an Arsenal tradition/superstition of Arsenal keepers not wearing new jerseys.
Signed a fellow Maerdy boy!
That’s a great article made all the better for the photos of each player and details of the beginnings of Arsenal FC
Just one thing. When you refer to Ramsey’s career there is a sentence that does not quite make sense. It’s the bit about his career being temporarily stopped.
It was a fascinating article. There were a number of Welsh lads playing for Arsenal in the 50’s and then a huge gap of 40 years before Hartson made an impact.
there were a couple in between like peter nicholas but i felt he made more of an impact at other clubs
Nice article, I think its much more interesting as a timeline like this, than as an XI
yeah the xi was just something that came from the north vs south wales article i did
hope you don't mind, but I've just posted your article on an Arsenal site. prob should've asked first, but it was a really good read & just wanted to spread your piece. Thanx
Seems in the main that being Welsh and playing for Arsenal shortens your life expectancy a bit.
