My Mother passed away exactly 1 year ago today of cancer. We all miss her very much.

Christopher Manns,

Fri Sep 08 04:38:37 EDT 2023

I donate, because it’s a great cause and a great community. Although, I don’t want to mention her by name, I dedicate my donation to my late mother, sadly taken many years ago by this awful disease, she was a diehard gooner, who arrived in the UK from Cyprus in the 60’s. She used to go to home games at Highbury with my Dad and then Emirates Stadium, along with some great away games in the clubs illustrious history. She adored Wrighty. (My Era) But always gave us good lessons about the past players too. This passion and love for The Arsenal unmatched and unwavering got through to me and my older brother. Not sure what happened to our older sister (Spurs fan) probably rebelling against our parents. x

Marios Vrachimi,

For all the circumstances, occasions & moments that draw the Gooner faithful together, possibly none is more important or unsung than when we drop a shoulder, sidestep and run full pelt en masse directly through the heart of an adversary like cancer.
