I've been supporting Arsenal since 1971. My great-grandfather actually worked at Woolwich Arsenal, but I think it was peer pressure that got me into the Gunners! The first time I watched Arsenal for the full 90 minutes was the 1972 FA Cup final defeat against Leeds. My first game at Highbury was a 2-2 draw in the same cup against Leicester on 13th January 1973. The football bug bit me and less than a year later, I was supporting Millwall as well! I know you're not supposed to support two clubs and I've been called a 'football slut' as a result but, to be honest, I just love football . . . but not always the results!
