On this day 1928 The #Arsenal manager Herbert Chapman introduced shirt numbering for the first time as the Gunners lost a League game 2-3 away at Sheffield Wednesday. Chapman was however immediately told afterwards by the FA to desist. Sorry about the poor quality in paper clip.

If you're interested in The #Arsenal's history and stats like I am, here's my two 'bibles' that I use the most:
A Complete Record by late Fred Ollier (RIP) &
The Complete Record by Josh James, Andy Kelly and Mark Andrews.
Highly recommended.
