There’s a topic about the Emirates already but it’s 10 years memories thing so I opened a new one.
While I was googling about the Emirates I was reminded of the Arsenal time capsule that is ‘buried’ (not properly) there I found a link that made me feel really good inside about our club. We love a really classy club… As if we didn’t already know.
Those who keep yapping about “Emirates was supposed to make us competitive” might wanna give this a read and understand what a world class stadium Emirates is.
It is a world class stadium to watch a sporting spectacle, perfect seats, great line of sight and all that.
But the atmosphere is shite, it is what it is. No getting away from it. Whatever great ergonomic plans they conceived for bouncing sound around a bowl-shaped stadium, it hasn’t worked, when there is no noise generated in the first place.
Even though I know it was a necessity to move I’ll always miss Highbury. I just loved the ground and everything about it and I even got nostalgic watching pre-2006 videos. It just felt like Arsenal and I’ve never really grown too attached to the Emirates even if it is a lovely stadium.
