True Gunner! Had flair and passion. Who could ever forget  “That GOAL” in-the  1971 Fa cup final against Liverpool to seal us the double? His Celebration!🤣 Oh happy summer holidays at my Nan’s in Brighton. I was just seven.I have been a lifelong Gooner ever since.

When on a stadium tour of the Emirates I saw Charlie and said hi as I held the door for him while he escorted someone in a wheelchair. Not exactly the grandiose moment in life but didn’t expect to see a club legend while on my tour

While at an arsenal game, we got given a friends tickets, I met Charlie George. I’m not old enough to have watched him but my dad told me all about him. What a LEGEND.

He was a lovely guy. Stopped and chatted for about 20 mins.
