An Arsenal fan has taken the rather extraordinary step of FAKING a letter to his son that he claims to be from Gunners boss Arsene Wenger.Diehard fan Paul Gardner was so worried his young son would start supporting Liverpool, he pulled of a little white lie in order to sway his allegiance to the North London giants.His son, Charlie, had expressed a desire to follow either Liverpool or Manchester City due to the fact many of his school friends supported the Premier League giants.Not happy with this, Gardner drafted the letter using the club’s standard letter head and claimed to be both Wenger AND even speaks on behalf of Chilean superstar Alexis Sanchez, his lad’s favourite player.
To top it all off, Paul even uses the signatures of both men in order to give the document an ‘official’ look.
‘Dear Charlie’, it reads.
‘Both myself and the players, especially Alexis Sanchez who I know is your favourite player, love having you as an Arsenal supporter and hope you carry on supporting us for many years along with your Daddy.’
‘We hope we can win the league & FA Cup this year, we are currently top of the league and as I am sure you know, we have won the FA Cup in the last two years.’
‘Why would you want to support Liverpool – a club who haven’t won anything for many years?’
‘I have told your daddy to bring you and your sister Evie to watch a game at Arsenal soon, Alexis has told me he can’t wait for you to see him play and he will try to score lots of goals for you.’
Fathers up and down the country may end up taking a leaf out of Paul’s book!
