Gunners run the planet.
Arsenal is one of the prominent and well known clubs in
the world. Notably, this is because of their wide spread fan base all over the
world. Moreover a large number of gunners travel to London from different
continents like Asia, Africa and America; instead this make it not a mere trip
to watch soccer but a pilgrimage.
Here we look at where the
gunners hail and show you that amazing love the mass have towards Arsenal.
ENGLAND
London in England is the
heart of Arsenal fan Base. With the presence of the Emirates stadium, a
remarkable number of gunners attend to the matches; due to the high price of
the ticket not all of them attend to the Emirates stadium.
Arsenal have attracted a
very wide number of fans in other parts of England other than London.
ASIA
It is not by mistake that most of the Arsenal preseason tours
Asia is considered. Arsenal try to thank the Gunners from Asia for their great
support. Every time Arsenal venture to the Far East
ahead of a new season, they are met by eruptions of passion from supporters in
every city and stadium.
This year, one particularly
devoted Vietnamese supporter gained international recognition for
chasing the team bus for several miles.
The Gunners draw a substantial
amount of their support from a region that finds it difficult to watch matches
that often take place in the middle of the night. It is an ever-growing
section.
AFRICA
Though this is purely
anecdotal, the fact that a grossly disproportionate percentage of my Twitter
followers are from Nigeria (and, to a lesser extent, other African countries)
suggests something about the breadth and passion of the supporters in Africa.
Arsenal officially recognizes 10 supporters' clubs across
the continent, and a preseason voyage to Nigeria was cancelled last
year due to what were, ostensibly, logistical difficulties.
The marketing team really should attempt to make a
concerted effort to get the squad over to Africa at some point in the future. I
know from personal experience that there are oodles of vociferous fans eager to
engage with their favorite players and purchase tickets to matches.
