Brief Description: Will you do the Gooners proud as you display an impressive knowledge of your favourite club, Arsenal, or will you instead prove yourself to be a complete goon, as trip over your own feet in search of the answers to the 1,000 cunning questions in this quiz book?
Covering every aspect of the club’s history from players to managers and from national to international competitions since its foundation over a century ago, and with a fitting Foreword by former Scotland and Arsenal goalkeeping legend and TV presenter, Bob Wilson, this book will challenge Gooners fans of all ages as well as providing fascinating facts and figures both to enthral and to trigger fond memories and ardent discussions.
If you find yourself floundering, you can recover your dignity and find consolation in the fact that £1.00 from the sale of every book will go to the Willow Foundation, a charity founded by Bob and Megs Wilson and dedicated to arranging individually tailored ‘Special Days’ for seriously ill young adults.
