• A workman's horse, which died in an accident during construction of Arsenal FC's Highbury Stadium, was buried there and then under what is now the North Bank stand. It is said to bring the club good luck. The corridors of the stadium are also said to be haunted by the ghost of former manager, Herbert Chapman.
• The worst point in the club's history was their relegation in 1913 - they only managed 1 home win all season, which is an all-time record.
