    I am a real Arsenal Fan but I have never been to the Highbury stadium but I have seen the times when they still played the league matches in Highbury and also played the cup matches and the FA community shield I have seen those matches on TV but that's about it but this video of the demolition of Highbury Stadium reminded me what these were then beautiful years with beautiful football from Arsenal I do miss the Highbury stadium 😥😥

    Went to Highbury for the first time in 86’ with my old man and at 6 years old became a life long Gunner. Thanks Dad So many great memories here it was home I will always have them memories till the day I die. West stand was our seat for 10 years until my dad passed away but I carried on going and always felt him with me. RIP Highbury RIP Dad

    This is for my mate George, an Arsenal nut all his life. George used to always go to Highbury with his dad as a kid, and has nothing but fond memories of the stadium. Through the good times and the bad, Highbury was always strong. George is 79 in December, and although the stadium is gone, the spirit lives on through George.

    Highbury was and still is the classiest football stadium in the country and we destroyed our real home to move into this soulless corporate bowl called the Emirates. Highbury had magical moments and history more than Emirates or should I say Ashburton Grove because that was the area were Emirates was built on. Highbury will always forever be in every gooners heart

    Horrible, horrible, horrible. Altho it had some incredible face lift in the 20 years before demolition I mourn the demise of Highbury along with every other old ground. The game as a whole is a million light years from when I attended my first match in 1975. It really is a struggle sometimes to keep some sense of 'passion' for the game.
