The Emotional Highbury and The Grand Ashburton Grove

Highbury 1913-2006

For the majority of their time in south-east London, Arsenal played at the Manor Ground in Plumstead, a three-year period at the nearby Invicta Ground between 1890 and 1893 excepted. The Manor Ground was initially just a field, but the club installed stands and terracing in time for their first Football League match in September 1893. They played their home games there for the next twenty years (with two exceptions in 1894�95), until the move to north London in 1913.



Arsenal Stadium, widely referred to as Highbury, was Arsenal's home from September 1913 until May 2006. The original stadium was designed by the renowned football architect Archibald Leitch, and had a design common to many football grounds in the UK at the time, with a single covered stand and three open-air banks of terracing. In the 1930s, the entire stadium was given a massive overhaul, with new Art Deco West and East stands constructed, opening in 1932 and 1936 respectively; in addition, the North Bank terrace had a roof added, which was later bombed during World War II and not restored until 1956.

At its peak, Highbury could hold over 60,000 spectators, and had a capacity of 57,000 until the early 1990s. The Taylor Report and Premier League regulations forced Arsenal to convert Highbury into an all-seater in time for the 1993�94 season, reducing the capacity to 38,419 seated spectators. This capacity had to be reduced further during Champions League matches to accommodate additional advertising hoardings, so much so that for two seasons (1998�99 and 1999�00) Arsenal played Champions League home matches at Wembley, which could house more than 70,000 spectators.

Final moments - the emotions run high in Highbury



Ashburton Grove 2007-present

Expansion of Highbury was restricted because the East Stand had been designated as a Grade II listed building and the other three stands were close to residential properties. These limitations have prevented the club from maximising the revenue that their domestic form could have brought in recent seasons. After considering various options, in 2000 Arsenal proposed building a new 60,000-seater stadium at Ashburton Grove, since renamed the Emirates Stadium, about 500 metres south-west of Highbury. The project was initially delayed by red tape and rising costs, but construction was completed in July 2006, in time for the start of the 2006�07 season. The stadium is named after its sponsors, the airline company Emirates, with whom the club signed the largest sponsorship deal in English football history, worth approximately �100 million; however some fans refer to the ground as Ashburton Grove, or the Grove, as they do not agree with corporate sponsorship of stadium names.The stadium will be officially known as Emirates Stadium until at least 2012, and the airline will be the club's shirt sponsor until the end of the 2013�14 season.

wayne here report-in!!

2nd? oh yeah!!!

yeah new one...

damn it! late pulak.. ahahaha..

anyway, ryan taylor or steven taylor, both also don't like gunners la. I read somewhere.

even if Steven taylor come to Arsenal, where would he fit in. Definitely he's a good, strong player but will he be able to up the tempo when needed?

question: why some of the member list are in red?

edit: saw it, but another question: y bold it? it is important?
i rather you bold those are label as glory hunter or you-should-avoid-his-post

Those are female fans. If you guys have objections on this, I can disable it.

uih for the pole, there is no Robin's equalizer goal against Everton?

hahahaha.. damn! like that also can aaa kimhoong? ehehehe..

vote people! Dudu's beachball goal the besT!

I'm sorry to have disappointed you. I may have missed your suggestion in the previous thread. This is purely StarGhazzer's suggestion and I didn't notice any recommendations for other goals.

If you have objection on this poll, please vote Null. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Nasri second goal against Man United in Emirates not in the list ?

Nah!, it's ok!
Then I go for Dudu beach trick!

Ehem... You also forgot Nasri's 2nd goal against Man U

---

Edit: Oops someone brought it up already.

But while we're on the subject of goals... I was a bit disappointed with Cesc this year in terms of goal scoring. Last year he started out with a couple of sublime goals and then fizzled out. This year, he went backwards a bit in that department, and the only ones I remember are the equalising header against I can't remember what team and also the two he scored against Boro.

Please vote null then


Seriously, I really didn't notice there were so many other great goals recommended in previous thread.

No worries mate... I would have voted for Eduardo's beach shot anyway
