Howdy Gooner,
We have a new featured Arsenal Fan of The Week , growing media mogul and a top Arsenal Fan. Tony Onwuchekwa has been a Gooner for a long time and describes his relationship with Arsenal as a marriage. He currently produces and anchors Nigeria’s first Arsenal Podcast and possibly the only football podcast done in Pidgin English, production however has slowed down for now as he re-brands the pod.
Our worry for “Tony though” (we wonder if his handle @tonydoe78 comes from misspelling “Tony Though”), anyways that is not the point, our worry for him is that by his own admission, he had a stint where he dumped our beloved Arsenal to support the Red Devils and since we play them this weekend in the form we are in, what are the chances he won’t divorce the club again! Guess there is only one way to find out…
So let’s meet Tony Onwuchekwa or @tonydoe78 as he is known on Twitter.
