Invincible during 55 - Gold Trophy?

[PerthRanger]

Might sound really random in the context of now, but saw a thing on twitter about John Terry talking about the Arsenal invincible side from 2004. It got me thinking, I’m sure Arsenal got a gold EPL trophy to commemorate the achievement.

Was that only an EPL one off thing or is it commonplace in other leagues?

I know before anyone says, we’re in Scotland, they did it first etc. it’s literally just a left field thought I’ve had after reading stuff online.

We did it first. 1899.

(Id imagine plenty have teams have done it around the world)

Presumably we didn’t get a gold trophy in 1899?

Could they not find anyone with an Arsenal connection to talk about it?

I just Googled "Arsenal gold trophy".

Odd that they'd make it so small.

His first point is completely false. They won it by drawing the 5th last game with 4 still to go, 2 draws (of 12 total) were after the league was won.

"I don't think it's a record that's ever going to be beaten" talking about the goals conceded, did we not break it in 20/21 season?

It looks like a Subbuteo trophy.

Do you not think a gold SPFL trophy would look good in our trophy room irrespective of size of it?

Unfortunately, in their eyes it wont count.

Folk who said ‘Covidball didn’t count’ are unwell.

He's probably just talking about the EPL rather than the British record no?

Not covid. Its Scottish Football, so therefore they dont register it.

 

[prenzlauerbear]

I always laugh when I see Wenger clutching that dinky gold trophy. Looks so crap.

 

[ClockworkOrange]

Arsenal would have won more that season if they hadn't focused so much on going unbeaten.

 

[Bluetyler]

TBH the full size EPL trophy looks shite as well. A bling trophy with no class IMO.

I think he's just talking about EPL, or maybe even major leagues.

I imagine other teams around the world have beaten it, where one or two decent teams are playing against absolute rubbish every week.

Nothing to do with covid and everything to do with how shite Scottish football is.
