This is the story of Arsenal and its move from south London to Highbury. The story is being published as it is written, and it is therefore possible that moments and issue may have been missed – and if you see anything amiss please do write to Tony@schools.co.uk with details and the details of the page you are questioning. The point about publishing this story here is that it can indeed be corrected if we have got anything wrong.
But I would ask that if you are correcting an error please do give your source as we have already found one or two books which have made statements about this era, but without any evidence.
