45 minutes from our first league title in 22 years, to say I'm a wreck is an understatement. Been a supporter since I was born (40 years). Just ordered a bottle of champagne via Just Eat just in case....

Bet I've bloody jinxed it now!!!!

Also been a supporter for 40 years, but I'm nearly 60!

My DS is at uni in Southampton and is a season ticket holder there. He was there through the grim winless winter and has tickets for Saturday. Since he was born a Gooner let's hope this goes our way....

It was very tense here as well!

@CollectingAllTheACEs Glad you got your evening off to watch. Xx

My son in law supports the Gunners. We have a lot of banter because I’m a Spurs fan (sorry but I am). It’s all good natured and he’s so excited and anxious about tonight’s game. Bless him. I guess I love him more than I hate Arsenal, because I hope they win. Mainly because he’ll take my very hard working DD out for a slap up meal Saturday to celebrate.

Mudslideal · 19/05/2026 21:28

Congratulations 🙌🏻 🙌🏻🙌🏻 things we can only dream of in the championship, I have a soft spot for Arsenal after meeting Arsene Wenger in Nice airport what a lovely man sat and chatted with us about football ⚽️

Manifesto · 19/05/2026 21:28

Nice one Arsenal!!

VeggieParishLunch · 19/05/2026 21:35

I’m totally uninterested but my DH and DS are fans- they’re chuffed to bits. Well done Arsenal! 👏🏻 🏆

Sandsnake · 19/05/2026 22:03

You’re welcome, from a Bournemouth fan! Gutted not to win it though, we really deserved the three points. Congrats Arsenal!

Endofyear · 19/05/2026 22:05

We are an Arsenal family. So happy tonight!! ☺️ I feel my lovely dad will be looking down from Heaven and cheering ❤️ 🏆
