Arsenal F.C.

Your assertion is false - not only have Arsenal been promoted to the top flight on merit - in 1903-04 - but in the same meeting as Arsenal's promotion in 1919 Chelsea were re-elected to the First Division despite being relegated in 1914-15. There was also Darwen when they were elected in 1890-91 and Sheffield Wednesday in 1891-92, despite other teams finishing higher in the Football Alliance. Qwghlm (talk) 21:58, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Chelsea have been relegated and promoted since 1919 thus earning their status by footballing merit. Darwen and Sheffield Wednesday are not currently top flight clubs. The statement is an undeniable fact. Arsenal are the only top flight club who haven't achieved their current position on footballing merit.(--BigTurnip (talk) 01:30, 24 December 2007 (UTC))

Please stop changing the edits back and calling it "speculation" - it is being broadcast live to about 30,000,000 people right now. That is why I put the current event tag on it. Turn on the BBC or Fox Soccer if you are in the US - they have special coverage on now. Please stop reverting my posts. I am trying to keep it updated via BBC and ITN reporting.

I am well aware, but saying that he has been rushed to hospital or died, when he was clearly still in the stadium being resuscitated is pure speculation. (BigTurnip (talk) 18:45, 17 March 2012 (UTC))
