A part of The Emirates and the Training Ground will forever be for this man.
It is with deep regret that we report the passing of our Head Groundsman, Steve Braddock.
Rest in peace, Steve ❤️

Huge welcome to Flo Newton who has officially joined as First Team Doctor. Flo is a familiar face to all at Arsenal having worked as part of the Academy for a number of years. Flo will work alongside Gary and the rest of the team.

For so many reasons preventing all spitting on the pitch must be a non-negotiable on return to train and return to play.

the general public will be able to run, walk and cycle outside without restrictions. Professional athletes will be able to resume training after a health check. A yardstick for UK when it gets round to publishing its plans.

An interesting day ahead highlighting concussion in sport. @WillStewNeuro leading the way in football studies and reminding all that that more studies needed and to consider the benefits of football alongside current headlines. #UKSCRS19 #FIELD study.
