The Royal Arsenal squad of the 1888–89 season The lyric is so drenched in thoughtless birthday card sentiment that it ends up damning those players with faint praise. However, the actual tune itself, most notably the memorable bassline, is left untampered with, which saves the song a little. As does the payoff line “keep telling us we’re boring, we’ll just keep on scoring now.”

Now this is a proper cup final song, blending Chas & Dave’s trademark style with references to Spurs players which – whisper it – actually works. The less said about the Ledley & the Kings cover, the better. The concept of big chorus and sort-of key change amid club-specific lyrics is good, but the song? The song is very bad.

Liverpool have a rich tradition of football songs. This is not included in that description. ‘We’re Never Gonna’ at least has the framework of a piece of music, but it’s instantly forgettable, somehow the kind of singalong that doesn’t have enough to entice anyone to actually sing along.The FA Cup resumed in 1945, but league football remained regionally structured until the start of the 1946–47 season. [67] Chelsea are 6 th in the league right now and with the form of Arsenal, Manchester City and Tottenham they need to keep winning if they want to keep up and have a chance of finishing this season in the top 4. Chelsea don’t have a good record against Arsenal recently, they have won just one of the last 6 competitive meetings although that was last season, so Potter needs to reverse this bad recent run for Chelsea to get a win here.

Sometimes less is more, and less in this case means one of The Spice Girls, Ocean Colour Scene and Echo and the Bunnymen has to go. Yeah, in retrospect that seems obvious.

Almost unrelentningly naff reworking of Donna Summer’s 1970s disco classic. But those of us of a certain age will probably forever hear the opening bars of the original and respond with “started out the season, nothing stopped us…..” Sung to the tune of ‘Rule Britannia’ the refrain is a simple and digestible one, explaining its enduring popularity. “Good old Arsenal / we’re proud to say that name / while we sing this song we’ll win the game” has a pleasantly quaint feel to it. Much like Constable Morgan and the Metropolitan Police Band that regularly played on the Highbury pitch at half time, it feels quite ‘Arsenal’ somehow. Its simplicity and relatability have given it a timeless quality.
