Arsenal fans had some good news last month… the 2020/21 season finished!
After one of the least enjoyable campaigns to be a Gooner in recent memory (certainly for me), fans will be looking forward to starting afresh this summer - with hopefully a signing or two to boot.
The 2020/21 campaign is also the fiftieth anniversary of a happier time for the club, when Arsenal celebrated their first FA Cup/league title domestic double in 1970/71.
To celebrate, we have picked out ten alternative landmarks to visit during the off season so you can enjoy some places free from Kroenke Out banners!

A summer journey fills the pockets with scraps of nothing and bits of everything. The boarding coupon for seat 33F. A receipt for two crunchie bars, a ticket from that play in Galway, a few 20-pence pieces, a flat lake stone for skimming. And that slip of paper, scrawled with the name Dad mentioned as we traveled through Ireland in July.
“No one slept. Eight of us in the one car. We drove all night from Sneem to Cobh, May 19, 1949,” said Dad. “The tender left for the ship at 11 a.m. It was an old troop carrier. Frank sent me the ticket from Rhode Island.”
