Victory through Harmony: The Bbc And Popular Music In World War Ii

Product Information

The likes of myself will use platforms like this to question the owner’s ambition but there is a time and a place. If you asked that same Premier League fans who the biggest clubs in the league are, assuming they are rational, they would likely only put Liverpool and Manchester United ahead of the Gunners, and maybe Chelsea too if they’re feeling a little frisky. There is a famous motto for years we had on our shirts, Victoria Concordia Crescit, Latin for Victory through Harmony. For decades we had a reputation of being the club who acted with class and did things the right way. If you are a fan of the popular The Royal Mint series, which recently concluded in 2020, called the Queen's Beasts, you will love a new series of silver and gold coins being released by the East India Company over the next two and a half years. Dubbed the Queen's Virtues, the series will also tap into the widespread appeal of the symbolism and iconography of the British monarchy worldwide. Ingrained within the heritage of The Arsenal is the long standing latin motto “Victoria Concordia Crescit”. Over the years there have been a number of variations of the translation but all are roughly the same: “Victory Grows Through Harmony.”

The hosts were left to debate if this was the behaviour of a true fan? That’s not for me to say. I do feel that no team has a divine right to be successful and as much as we have enjoyed seeing our club win trophies, you can’t bail the moment things get hard.They created the symbol with the 'A' (standing for 'Arsenal'), the ball ('Football') and the 'C' ('Club'), which is in itself a fantastic piece of corporate branding. Invincible immortalises two of our greatest glories: the men’s invincible Premier League season of 2003/04 and the women’s Champions League winning team of 2006/07. Arsene Wenger’s team remain the only side to achieve this feat in the modern era, while Vic Akers’ Gunners are the only British team to lift Europe’s most prestigious club trophy. There’s a phone in from Talk Sport which has been trending where a caller (adamant they are a gooner) says they have chosen to go watch Man United this week rather than Arsenal because the return of Ronaldo would be more entertaining. Remember Who You Are pays homage to the memories and history of our former home, Highbury. This stunning representation of the stadium's East Stand – one of football’s architectural masterpieces – is firmly rooted in the club’s DNA, with special moments in time featuring some of our greatest players and managers included throughout the artwork.

If you’re paying a lot of money to see the team you love, you want to give them the best chance of winning. Booing and jeering wouldn’t do that. AM: It’s going to sound cliche, but one of the things they really impressed upon me was the fact they feel they have only had the freedom of being real owners since 2018. Whether you buy that or not, I do think it’s undeniable that from that point on they seemed laser focused on changing our perception of them. I’m the type of person who cares more about the consequences of your actions more than their intent, so for me, if we are feeling closer to them, it has to be the consequences of their choices.DG: You were also afforded opportunities to speak with the club hierarchy. What can you reveal about that, and how responsive were they to your input? The club’s first crest (1) initially appeared on 20 October, 1905, when the “Book of Football” published an article on Woolwich Arsenal football club written by the club's vice-chairman Arthur Kennedy, with the crest proudly accompanying the article. That was the question Mikel Arteta asked in the first episode of the new season of “All or Nothing”. Arsenal had just lost their first three matches of the 2021-22 season, a season in which Arsenal would feature in no European competitions for the first time in a quarter of a century. The Gunners had conceded nine goals, scored none, and sat dead last in the Premier League table. As the cherry on top, Spurs found themselves in first. In an era where many Youtubers build views on how loud they shout, well done to the majority of fans for putting the teams needs first.

All players, whether they played every game or one minute within their respective campaigns, are recognised either in illustration form or engraved onto the trophies No one is pretending that a 1-0 win over Norwich is anything to be excited about. Yet in a hard time, I was very proud to be a gooner yesterday. These sorts of actions make a difference to those that value football clubs for more than what they do on the pitch. After all, they are worth billions – if they are not helping out their community, then it’s an absolute waste. The innovative series is called theQueen's Virtues Collectionand focuses on six virtues associated with Queen Victoria – the great-great-grandmother of Queen Elizabeth II, who turned 95 in April and who will observe her 70th anniversary as monarch in 2022. In 2015 she became the longest-serving British monarch, overtaking that position from Victoria, who reigned for 63 years. AM: The platform has been wonderful. Not once did anyone at Arsenal try to censor or coach me into saying anything, they literally just handed me a mic and said have at it. Fantastic experience.

It was inlaid into the floor of the 'Marble Halls', it sat proudly over Highbury's main entrance on Avenell Road and was even forged onto the heavy steel doors themselves. If that classes me as anything other than being a true supporter then so be it…. and I wonder how many of the Wenger / Emery Out brigade class themselves as true supporters? Both Victoria and Elizabeth carried forward and embodied particular core virtues or principles. A virtue is a conscious effort to acquire and maintain one's own code of moral values. Diligently observing the practice of being virtuous as embodied in those core beliefs helps promote personal nurturing, leading to a more prosperous and happy life. The VCC crest (7), which the current crest replaced, had been Arsenal’s symbol since appearing in the first programme of season 1949/50. It would appear to have been in the minds of the Gunners hierarchy for at least a year prior to this. In the final matchday programme of the 1947/48 League Championship winning season, ‘Marksman’ (aka Harry Homer), the programme editor of the day, wrote: “...my mind seeks an apt quotation with which to close this season which has been such a glorious one for Tom Whittaker, Joe Mercer and all connected with The Gunners. Shall we turn for once to Latin? ‘Victoria Concordia Crescit’. Translation: ‘Victory grows out of harmony.’”

It looks as though Harry Homer came up with his “idea” whilst browsing through the club’s programme archive. He may have been a bit cheeky in taking the credit but I’m sure that we can all appreciate what Harry did. It is also good to see that the club has started to feature this classic Latin phrase more and more over recent months. Who knows, maybe we will see it once more become as prominent on the kit as it was during the 1990s. One of the first things Chapman and Claude Waterlow Ferrier [the architect of Highbury's East and West stands] did was to "rebrand" the club. Perhaps therein lies the reason why supporters identify so strongly with this side. On that pitch they see a group of players who care. Players who know what a privilege it is to play for The Arsenal. Players who fight tooth and nail for glory, just how those in the stands wish they could. Perhaps that is why it is so easy to root for this current Arsenal team. In addition to Edu’s chats in front of the camera, board member Josh Kroenke appeared as a guest on the Road Trippin’ podcast in February of this year. Among the subjects he discussed on the podcast was his experience with Arsenal. Kroenke detailed how his father’s company first acquired sole ownership of the club in 2018. He expressed his desire for Arsenal to return to the heights reached by the Invincibles. He also explained different elements of the leadership structure implemented at the club, as well as the thinking behind the team’s European Super League involvement. InclusionMost teams will be thinking the same when they travel to North London. The longer they stay in the game the more toxic the atmosphere becomes. At that point we often don’t have the leaders to respond. In direct response to this articles headline, I found the atmosphere inside the ground yesterday to be excellent, especially given the clubs current standing and the millions of opinions as to why we are where we are.
