The best place to find that perfect Arsenal gift? It's Sportingdesires.com of course!

There are some football clubs that stand the test of time. New clubs with billionaire owners come and go like the wind. The title “The Bank of England club” has been attached to various football teams over the years. There are very few clubs that can boast a continual period of success over their rivals. The natural ebb and flow of the game of football and relegation has meant that some of the most powerful clubs in the game have dropped off and others have taken their place-
  •          The most successful club in the 1920’s were Huddersfield Town who won the league 3 years in a row
  •          The 1950’s saw back to back league wins for Wolverhampton Wanderers
  •          The late 1960’s saw a dominant Leeds United team
  •          Brian Clough took league titles to Derby County and Nottingham Forest in the 1970’s before 2 European Cups for Forest
  •          The late 1970’s and most of the 1980’s were completely dominated by the hugely successful Liverpool
  •          Manchester United won the league again in 1992-3 and this started a run of 8 league title wins in the next 11 seasons
  •          The rise of the billionaire owner has seen Chelsea win league titles, domestic cups and the Champions League, while Manchester City have got hold of two league titles but find the Champions League a little more of a challenge


But one team has been a constant presence in those seasons with a massive 13 league title wins in their history. They have the longest unbroken stay in the top flight if English football. They have been there since 1919.

Of course I am talking about Arsenal Football Club. They have a continued period of success that has stood the test of time-

  •          They won 5 league titles in the 1930’s, including a hat-trick of titles
  •          They followed this up after the war with titles in the 1940’s and 1950’s
  •          1970/71 was the season that they won the double of the league and the FA Cup
  •          The famous win with almost the last kick of the last game in 1988-89 will live forever in the memory
  •          3 titles in 7 seasons followed the appointment of Arsene Wenger


They are just simply the team that has been least affected by the changes in the game. This is the longest sustained period of success of any team in the game of English football. The fact is that the Gunners will be able to keep up this success in the modern game as they compete with the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City domestically, while battling in the Champions league year after year with opponents such as Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.

Their London base means that they can attract fans to their beautiful new stadium called the Emirates Stadium and delight fans worldwide through the various television deals the Premier League has been able to negotiate. Football is everywhere – from the streets to the stadia, from school to your place of work you find it all over the place.

When you get big enough to walk around and kick a football then the Arsenal FC 4 inch soft ball is an excellent way to learn the basics of the game. If you think that you have a budding Thierry Henry or Alexis Sanchez in the home then you will want them to practice as much as possible.
