Old Trafford and the Emirates

Write-up by Peter Spyr

If you aren’t a suitable football fan, but like to dabble in the glamour and pleasure of the winners and losers, or at least like the thought of indulging in a group away from property, then choosing an English premiership team is a fine idea. Some of the finest footballers from about the world flock to the English premiership, which is renowned for producing some of the most enjoyable games you’ll see.

If you’re venturing to England to examine out some of the primary attractions, then the historical football stadiums can certainly supply a spectacle.

The Emirates houses Arsenal, or ‘The Gunners’. The club actually started in Woolwich Arsenal when a group of workers at the Woolwich Arsenal Armament Factory formed a squad way back again in 1886. In 1913, it moved to Highbury prior to modifying names and venues yet again in 2006 from Highbury to The Emirates. Affectionately identified as ‘The Home of Football’ by gamers and fans, it can hold up to sixty,355 supporters (or haters if you’re a rival Tottenham fan spitting blood at the mention of this club – oh indeed football is THAT tribal). The royal household of Arsenal players is abundant and long: Ian Wright, Tony Adams, Thierry Henry, and Cesc Fabregas are a handful of renowned names that have played, or play for Arsenal. They have a popularity for playing some of the ‘prettiest’ and most poetic football in the premiership so if you want to witness some great action and aren’t aligned to a particular group, then Arsenal make an appealing alternative.
