有個槍迷收到來自他太太給的生日禮物就是，參加海布里球場參觀的Legend tour，
也就是有槍手前球員會來解說，各位可以看一下他的敘述，那天解說的前槍手是前守門
Bob Wilson跟Peter Simpson，都是'70年代初槍手奪雙冠的球員。這裡作者有提到他
跟Bob Wilson聊天時，聽到Bob猜測溫格不愛簽英格蘭球員的原因（這也不是什麼新聞
了）。以下是他的敘述，蠻精彩的，當然也摻雜他自己的意見。
可以看看這槍迷的參觀時拍的照片，這就是花三十鎊的海布里之旅。
Me, Bob Wilson and Peter Simpson
Blimey, missed out on al the transfer deadline day excitement, if you can
call a loan deal for Mart Poom "Excitement".
Now, I have the utmost respect for Arsene, and generally like to believe that
he "knows" as we like to say in these parts. But we needed strengthening, and
all he has done is sign a goalkeeper on loan. Chelsea must be shitting
themselves. If Arsene can't find the players we need, what does that mean?
Are they not available? Or are they available and can he not find them? Or,
even more worryingly, does he not think we needed reinforcing? He's taken a
f****g huge gamble with my club this year, it better pay off.
Jenas to Spurs? I think Arsene could've made a better player of him. If he
wanted to. But I was speaking to Bob Wilson today, yes I was, more of that in
a second... and Bob confirmed what many already knew, and some knew but
didn't want to believe. Namely Arsene doesn't like english footballers,
doesn't think they're dedicated enough. So maybe that explains the lack of
movement on Jenas and the backtracking on Carrick (who would've been a useful
addition even with Vieira's u-turn last year).
So why was I talking to Bob Wilson? That got your attention I bet, chaps?
Well, the missus paid for me to go on a legends tour of Highbury for my
birthday. The tour was today, so I rolled up at Arsenal tube around 11:35 in
the A M to find that she was late. For once. As I waited in the sweltering
heat, I utilized my phone's video camera for a little bit of an intro to the
day. What kind of person AM I becoming? Anyway, she turned up a little late.
Problems on the Victoria line, apparently. I think she just got lost at
Finsbury Park tube as I had got through 5-10 minutes earlier with no sweat.
Well that's not quite true, but anyway...
We got to the main entrance and the Marble Halls unsure of who to speak to,
but someone stuck their head out of the door and asked if they could help. We
explained why we were there and were ushered in and presented with visitors'
passes- Jo has managed to hang onto hers! And a gift bag; containing a
Highbury pendant and key ring, a photo of Bob Wilson for signing purposes, a
letter from Arsene, fixture card and a team photo from last season! In
addition to the Arsenal magazine from November 2004. We were there then taken
upstairs to Arsenal's cocktail lounge (the firast of its' kind in the
country, fact fans) and served tea. Or in our case, orange juice and water.
After much milling around and trying not to act too touristy in a room filled
with people being just that, not to mention kids who I felt shouldn't really
have been there (another story, another day maybe), we were told that Bob had
broken down en route. And so the FA Cup and our little trophy in recognition
of the Unbeaten run were wheeled out for photographic purposes. As I remarked
to Jo, loads of people up before me looked like they were at a funeral rather
than standing behind the most famous trophy in football. The World Cup
excepted. But on getting a photo with it myself, I felt very self conscious,
like "OH. MY.GOD. It's the FA Cup. And loads of people are looking at me". So
I looked like I was at a funeral too.
So, we then headed out into the sun to enjoy the views from the directors'
box, Arsenal MD Keith Edelman's seats were the row behind me and Jo, and it
was all in the details. The bannister covering the the entrance/exit, the
little ashtrays attached to the back of each seat, and the flooring which
looked distinctly marbleesque in the entrance. But I only noticed that on the
way out, and Bob had turned up by then, so I'm getting ahead of myself. On
entering the box, two of the guys on ythe tour shook hands with a familiar
face. Familiar but couldn't place him. When Bob finally turned up, the
mystery was unravelled, it was Peter Simpson, who was part of the 71 Double
side!
So, Bob talked about Arsenal, about his time with us, and about the new
stadium, which you can catch a glimpse of from the East Stand. As ever with
Bob, he came across very knowledgable and very warm. And Arsenal mad. He then
took us down into the Marble Halls, before proceeding into the dressing room.
I'd heard it was smaller than expected, and it is. But the big huge bath the
players used to use was of great interest. It's disused now due to hygiene
reasons. But the baths and showers the players use these days are nothing
special. I'd like to think Arsene will have that resolved at Ashburton. It
was here that Bob talked about the bottle of brandy the players used to slug
from before games, with Peter sneaking of for a crafty fag (in the old days,
not now). It was also here that Bob talked about Arsene's distrust of the
english footballer and how it saddened him that Stuart Taylor was allowed to
leave, though Bob basically set the deal up. So after we'd had a look at all
the shirts hung up, from Lehmann to Pires, and then the subs bench- yes we
have one in our changing room- we headed out to the tunnel.
As we lined up there, I went right instinctively, Jo went left. Bob talked
about how we always lined up on the right, and also got a bannister whilst
the opposition didn't. He talked about how players just used to run out in
the old days rather than coming out together now, as is the norm. And then
out into what was almost blinding sunlight after the darkness and into the
dugout areas. Again, Jo went left and I went right. More chat from Bob,
whilst a guy on the tour seemed determined to turn it into the "me and Bob"
show. The sprinklers came on and at this point, or it might've been before
Bob revealed a fact he'd only discovered last month: There's a two foot slope
running down from the Clock End goal to the North Bank and the pitch is also
slanted, can't remember which direction, by a few feet!
The final stop on the tour was the museum, and Bob stayed and signed things
for about half an hour here, so I got my Bob Wilson autobiography signed, as
well as the photo. Jo got her members book signed next to a quote from Bob.
Bob and I talked briefly about his book, which he said he handwrote! I told
him it was the best book about Arsenal I'd ever read, which it is. He replied
"It gets a little sad in places, doesn't it?" and I told him that I cried and
that I'd been sorry to read about that. "That" being the death of his
daughter, Anna from a particularly agressive strain of cancer.
On that note, I thanked him and Jo and I went off to explore the memorabilia
accumulated over the years, before I got choked once more, reading tributes
to David Rocastle, by David Dein and Michael Thomas. Some good stuff in that
museum, though.
I talked to Peter, who confessed he was bored with football now, he preferred
playing to watching. As anyone with skill would, I guess! He likes golf
though. Belatedly, I got a photo taken with Peter and Bob. Who looked far
happier than I did!
And then Bob left, leaving us with a 25 minute whizz through the history of
Arsenal in a little screening room. That came to an end, and we were on our
way. At 3pm. A great afternoon.

還有前球員講古給你聽 :)
不知道當槍手搬到Ashburton Grove時
Legend Tour會不會添幾個剛退休的槍手球員？
也許各位會遇到的Legend會是Bergkamp，傳說他也有訂槍手所促銷的新球場附近
的公寓套房，以後說不定冰王子會跑跑龍套到新球場做解說員...猜猜而已.... :P
