    Indeed. Noticed that Pat Rice was at the Brighton game.
    "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    Double should not be capitalised following, as it does in your post, an indefinite article. Of course had you referred to The Double with the definite article, it would be correct.

    It's an interesting point, h. I'm not sure you're correct, but it's something to ponder.

    Your mum's an indefinite article.
    When I was young and full of rage
    I hated Tottenham to the core
    But now I've reached a gentler age
    I hate the fůckers even more.

    • 14 – Cech has failed to save 14 consecutive Premier League penalties at Arsenal, this is the 2nd worst rate just behind Brad Friedel and Craig Gordon who have the record with 15
    • 7 – Arsenal have lost 7 of their last 11 matches since selling Alexis Sanchez to Man U
    • 15 – Arsenal have lost 15 times in all competitions this season, losing just 3 of those matches with Alexis Sanchez in the team
    • 13 – Points Arsenal have taken from their first 15 away games, their worst record since 1989-90 when Beats International’s “Dub be good to me” knocked Sinead O’Connor’s “Nothing compares 2 U” off the number one hit charts in the UK.
    • 11 – Consecutive matches in the Premier League without a clean sheet, the worst run since 2002
    • 1983 – First time Brighton and Hove Albion beat Arsenal since 1983

    Odd that we had that poor run in 2002, given how the season ended.
