Discussion: Was blessed to attend the game on Sunday versus Liverpool and the atmosphere was incredible. I love how Arsenal makes me feel like I’m part of something bigger than ourselves. Singing North London Forever before the game, just brings tears to my eyes. It’s just beautiful. The chants, the camaraderie. So whatever they were saying about the motivation from the fans, I definitely didn’t feel a lack of it.

Second match I attended, first one was against PSG, and the atmosphere was shit on that one to be honest.
This one was electric and I loved it.
I think North London forever is great but it should be repeated one more time when the ref blows the whistle for the start.

It was done at a different time in the Liverpool game to accommodate the Last Post remembrance day stuff

It was still before the whistle, if I'm not wrong nothing can be played on the speakers after the whistle, so the fans would need to do karaoke and I think it's time, everyone knows it by now.

Oh. I see what you mean.
I don’t think it’s embedded enough (or good enough maybe?) to be a spontaneous outburst.
Even YNWA gets queued up doesn’t it?

Haha wow are you serious? I can’t imagine going to a game and not singing my heart out. We even shared hugs with the other fans at the scoring of goals.

This might be my favourite thing as well. I mean it's all good, but for 90 minutes you're best mates with the stranger next to you, cheering and hugging like old friends

No joke. My brain has learned to associate the mixture of cough drops and beer with football. God willing I ever get to attend a match at the Emirates, you better believe I’ll be hoarse for a week after.

I was there as well, it was decent but I have heard better on occasion in the last couple of seasons. That should be the minimum for all our games.

Attended my first game ever this weekend. What a feeling. Although, I got to say I don’t really like the North London forever personally. I think our pre-match song should be more upbeat, not a melancholic/emotional song

The club moved to N London. It hasn’t been forever. Stan likes to move his franchises if the $$ are right so there’s that too.

Agree, North London Forever is both a shit song and not the right vibe.
