Bergy 0 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Hi Gers fans!I'm an Arsenal fan myself but came on here to see if I could get any information from you guys regarding games that took place between both sides.In particular I'd be gratefull for information from a game in December '89 were we played at Ibrox in match sponsored by Zenith Data Sytems. Also both side's met in the unofficial British Championship (way before my time) but was there a lot of prestige on winning it at the time? The name would suggest so but it's difficult to find out much about the British Championship. There is a lot of history between both clib's dating back to the 30's.Any info would be appreciated.Kind Regards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOLUWDC 1 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 December 19th 1989 - Rangers 1-2 Arsenal - British Championship (Zenith Data Systems Cup)Attendance was 31,118.Rangers played Arsenal a lot decades ago and had a strong friendship with them. They own some shares in Rangers too I believe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

caseyjones 3,009 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 The British Championship was played in the 1933-34 season. Rangers won the home leg 2-0 and the away leg 3-1. There were another 4 fixtures in that decade. The 50's and 60's saw a return to regular fixtures between the sides. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DadoPrso9 7 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 There was also a bit of a friendship between Bill Struth and that Arsenal chairman (whos name escapes me for some reason) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the fact he is defending his players is a good thing, he does take it to extremes though. But he is responsible for the invincible team and they were something else. He is a great manager.

There seem to be conflicting reports though as to what the name of the trophy Arsenal won. I've heard British Champions Cup, Zenith Data Systems Cup, Zenith Data Systems Challenge and so on. Anyone know?I've heard that as well (re the shares) how much truth there is I'm unsure as I'd asume one can not have shares in another. Maybe we did one time but certainly there was a strong connection back to the Great Herbert Chapman and Bill Struth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totaly agree mate, we can all see how the taigs players are responding to mowbrays public comments by saying basicly use arent good enough, and by saying that they have proved him right, they havent got the will to prove him wrong.
