Around SBN: Transfer Rumor: Bolton On Verge of First Signings

There's a Tube strike scheduled for Boxing Day, and as a result Arsenal may move their game against Wolves. For those of you who have never been to North London, the Emirates (and Highbury before it) is right in the middle of a residential neighborhood full of small streets, which means there's pretty much zero parking around the Emirates, so the vast majority of fans take the Tube to get there.

An aside:

when I went to London as part of spring break my junior year of college, one of my favorite pictures I took was of the sign in the Arsenal tube station.

My desktop at home is currently the old

“WELCOME TO HIGHBURY THE HOME OF FOOTBALL” sign that was right over the gates to the West Stand at Highbury.

I think the best line I’ve heard while I’ve been over here was when I was on the tube on the way to the CC game against Bolton:

“Please be advised that Holloway Road station is closed due to football.”
