The 'Platform Art' images of memorable moments in Arsenals history have long been removed. I think the paragraph on this should be removed as it is of no encyclopedic value. Any objections? (HighburyVanguard 22:54, 7 May 2007 (UTC))[reply]

I think it could be shortened into a single sentence, and folded into the article about the club's departure from the area. I don't think it is totally unencyclopaedic, given the club's connection to the area, but others may disagree. Qwghlm 23:27, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually on second thoughts you can go ahead and delete it, I couldn't find a way of writing it in a single sentence that didn't look like crap. I'm not too fussed, as it happens, I just don't like deleting things from articles with no explanation in the edit summaries. Qwghlm 23:29, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Have decided not to delete it but I did shorten it and mentioned that it no longer exists. (HighburyVanguard 01:10, 10 May 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Drayton Park

Surely it's more the case that Drayton Park - and the whole Finsbury Park-Moorgate branch - is closed on weekends, regardless of whether there is a match on or not? Nick Cooper (talk) 07:31, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, I've updated the article to reflect this. Qwghlm (talk) 09:59, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Arsenal not the only tube station named after football club

What about West Ham? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.27.252.237 (talk) 10:24, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

They didn't move to their current ground until 1904, and the station opened in 1901. So, no. Britmax (talk) 14:37, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Besides which, West Ham station is named after the town of West Ham, which was there some 650 years before railway and 700 years before football. --Redrose64 (talk) 18:28, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
