£80m in the bank! Arsenal on a roll!
The Emirates project has been a huge success for Arsenal - it just goes to prove what good management can achieve when they have the right strategy and good execution - what a shame that we cannot seem to run public infrastructure projects as well - the Public Sector could learn a lot from projects like this.
Arsenal is currently generating about £3m per game at the new stadium, with near-capacity attendances, which must make Roman Abramovich choke on his pelmeni because Chelsea can barely scrape together 30,000 visitors these days.
All of this has lead to Arsenal become the richest football club in Britain and has secured our position as one of the world’s premier sports team - the turnover for this financial year will be over £200m.
Oh, it’s good to be a Gunner!

City are on your tails - I never thought I’d be typing that by the way.
See you at Wembley for the Carling Cup Final.
Hope all is well, say hi to Vicky for me.
