But he recognises that he has the chance to establish a legacy at a club with great ambitions. "When we started we set ourselves the target of getting to step six [tier 10] by the end of our fifth season," he says. "Hopefully one day people will feel the same way about Dial Square". "What was the point?" They have equal voting rights and every member is encouraged to voice their opinion concerning the day-to-day running of the club. He speaks of an idyllic setting where "it didn't matter how much money you had in the bank, all that mattered was you became part of the Arsenal. "I'll always be an Arsenal fan," says Dave Nathan, whose great-grandfather was a groundsman at Highbury in the 1920s. He's gifted his usual seat, to the right of the goal at the Clock End, to a mate. It's a sizeable number for a match in Division One of the Surrey County Intermediate League (Western) - the 12th tier of English football. It's not the Arsenal I fell in love with. The start of this tale is debatable. He's living every kick of the ball, nodding his head as if he was on the end of a Gabriel Martinelli cross.
