Hello folks. I've been looking for a different Arsenal forum to post in. At 41, I feel I'm too old for the other ones since everyone puts bro at the end of each post. I have lurked on and off here for a few years, usually after a bad loss.

Born and grew up in Islington and have been an Arsenal fan since mid '89 - a couple of weeks before the greatest moment in English football. My dad had taken me to the home game against Derby County, which we bottled and lost 2-1.

    Welcome to the forum.

    Yeah I hate that too. Welcome to our much more adult and sophisticated forum, bruh.

          How long has it been since Tucker McRoy was born?

          mdgoonah41 I just checked mine - I joined here 2011 and joined A_M in December 2003! I just posted back on A-M to check my profile. Replied to a comment from one HomeSteak which was made 17 minutes ago. Anyone else also lurk or post over there? I hadn't been back for ages before that. It looks a bit daunting. I like it here better.

              Just logged in. It's very information dense, every reply seems to top post the previous post, often adding very little. Lots of interminable player threads with dad joke moderated titles. Looks fairly degraded relative to its pomp, though it might just be a lack of familiarity.
