Imagine if there such a thing as an official whisky partner when we were at the Arsenal @WeeAlecJames ? 🥃

#Arsenal is raising a glass to its new partnership with Scottish whiskey brand, Chivas Regal. The collaboration, announced ahead of the 24/25 season, designates Chivas as the Gunners’ official whiskey partner and will see the opening of a dedicated #Chivas bar within the stadium.

@DBNJack @hente_afsc Aye Davy pal, since ma football banning I’ve spent a lot of time on the golf course. How’s life in Southend ? I heard you tried to sign six Scottish players last week. Desperate times? I’ll be down for the summer, I’m assuming Devon is still on the cards?

@WeeAlecJames @hente_afsc Golly Alec, it’s been a while since you were here, I had assumed you’d stopped corresponding via this method. Good to have you back. How’s everything in Scotland ? Getting in plenty of golf ?

OTD 1937 final #Arsenal appearance for Alex James, a Scottish inside left who many say is the best ever player to have played for the club.
A heart of the Gunners forward play, 261 games, 27 goals, four League titles, two FA Cup wins and club captain from 1932 to 1937.

@DBNJack @hente_afsc Good morning Davy pal! It’s Alec James calling! That’s quite a compliment coming from you.
English
@hente_afsc Wonderful player was @WeeAlecJames the Arsenal forward line would’ve scored fewer goals if it wasn’t for Alec’s ability to created opportunities for others.

@garythegooner56 @DBNJack Why am I always the one pouring the tea ??
English
@DBNJack Aye Davy pal, I’ll give you ma thoughts on the match tomorrow. I’ll say one thing, Chelsea are rubbish!
English
I heard that the Arsenal beat strugglers Chelsea 1-0 in front of 60,000 spectators at Highbury. Undoubtedly @WeeAlecJames will call me tomorrow to discuss the match. #1939

@DBNJack @histori_arsenal I prefer 'canny' but i'll take wily as well!
English
@histori_arsenal By the way I would never describe myself as wily. That’s a moniker for @WeeAlecJames he is as wily as they come. 😝

@DBNJack @Gooner_AK That 20 yards got me across the road Davy pal, it was enough the scare the burglars away!
English
@WeeAlecJames @Gooner_AK You also had a great turn of pace Alec. There aren’t many players who are faster than you over 20 yards.
English
@DBNJack @GoonerFrog Thanks Davy pal but after all the running I’ve done this season for the Arsenal I deserve to be in the chair and you need to make the tea!
English
Alec makes a fine cup of tea. Holidays by the seaside with the James family is always a highlight of the summer. #1937 This photograph beautifully coloured by @GoonerFrog

@gooner1947 @DBNJack I only use it as a therapeutic rub Peter pal, unless of course it's a bitterly cold January day!

@DBNJack @WeeAlecJames Wee drams pre match and at HT not a good idea!

Good luck to my auld pal (and I mean auld!) @DBNJack on his return to the football pitch today for Southend. I'm sure he will make a grand contribution in the forward line.
English
@gooner1947 @DBNJack @garythegooner56 I did try the pick and mix but I don't think the Finsbury Park crowd were ready for that sort of innovative thinking!
English
@WeeAlecJames @DBNJack @garythegooner56 Big mistake but alas too late. You cdve tried a sort of pick and mix but i doubt it wdve caught on.

@gooner1947 @DBNJack @garythegooner56 Hello Peter, we stocked mainly penny sweets but also a small selection of chocolates. Our most popular sweets were fruit salads and Black Jacks.

@DBNJack @gooner1947 @garythegooner56 Ye win some ye lose some! Davy is correct, it was not the most canny investment decision I have made. Aye the shop was small but ye could get at least three customers in there plus me!
English
@gooner1947 @garythegooner56 @WeeAlecJames The idea of a sweet shop was a good one, the choice of the shop was not so good. There were probably larger places he could have looked at.

@DBNJack I'm not concerned about the criticism I've had this season Davy pal and I'm not going to head into retirement just yet. I might have to put on a special performance against Charlton today just to remind a few people I can still play a wee bit.
English
@WeeAlecJames has been criticised by many this season, some suggesting he should retire sooner rather than later however he still has much to offer the Arsenal attack. I'm very keen to see how he performs today. #1936

I might as well make the announcement here, I have decided to put the boots back on and I'm making a comeback as a player for Southend United. #1936

@ArsenalNWales @DBNJack @Gooner_AK Are ye still loitering around Mr "Arsenal North Wales"? The only fraud is ye!!

@DBNJack I'm still contented here at Highbury Davy pal but thanks for the offer!
English
@WeeAlecJames Yes Alec and if you fancy a game here at Southend I'm more than happy to approach Mr Allison to get you released from the Arsenal.
