“We have thousands of recognised supporters in the St Albans area, and it is a huge step forward for us to make official Club merchandise available through a local store. A wide range of Club merchandise will be available, along with Club memberships once the store is up and running. We look forward to seeing people there on launch day and hope it will be a great success.”
- Adrian Ford, Arsenal’s commercial director
Arsenal have opened a new club store. It is located at Unit 31, The Maltings Shopping Centre, St Albans, and it sells a wide range of Arsenal merchandise, including replica shirts, mugs, books, DVDs and leisure wear. The Arsenal Store — St Albans will be open Monday to Saturday 9.30am — 5.30pm and Sundays 11am-5pm.
It's not quite as exciting as signing Villa and Silva, now, is it? Still, baby steps. The profit from all those shirts and mugs and leisure wear will go into the "get Villa and Silva" fund, and one day, just maybe, we'll sign some amazingly prolific striker from a big, big club.
Not that I'm complaining, mind you. I realise it's better to sign a young, promising player as opposed to one who's at his peak and has nowhere to go but down. I just get a bit jaded when this is the most newsworthy thing I could find today.
Oh, and we're probably going to sell Adebayor for 30 million pounds to Barca.
