As Arsenal fans are collectively dreaming of a first Premier League title in almost 20 years, a number of club legends have come together for a video to pray that Mikel Arteta’s side DON’T make it over the line…but all is not as it seems!
The video, released by online bookmaker Paddy Power, sees a number of Gooner icons, including Charlie Nicholas and Ray Parlour, all profess their hope that Arsenal let slip their six point lead at the Premier League summit, for the same hilarious reason. Nicholas begins the video “I can’t believe I’m about to confess to this on camera” before some sombre music takes hold with Parlour, Nigel Winterburn and Kevin Campbell all talking about the seemingly eternal wait they've endured for another title.
Former Soccer Saturday pundit Nicholas then continues: “It can’t happen, I’m sorry, but Arsenal winning the title this season, it can’t happen - Piers f******* Morgan” Three-time Premier League winner with Arsenal, Ray Parlour then chimes in: “I’d rather Arsenal never win another trophy than to see Piers Morgan happy and smiling. I actually feel sick just thinking about it”, Nicholas says before calling for a bucket and violently vomiting into it.
