Another thrilling (albeit slightly disappointing) season in the books!

It didn't quite end the way we'd all hoped for way back in August, but that doesn't mean that the journey wasn't amazing!

Through red cards and injuries, our beloved Arsenal persevered through it all to finish 2nd in the Premier League behind Liverpool; along with reaching the semifinals of the UEFA Champions League for the first time in nearly TWO DECADES!

Long term injuries to our captain (Martin Ödegaard), Star Boy Bukayo Saka, our wall at the back Gabriel and Swiss Army Knife Kai Havertz derailed what could've been an historic season in N5. Not to mention the ULTRA-CONTROVERSIAL red cards that seemed to plague us through the Festive Fixtures. Yet here we are, Champions League secured for a third straight season and another runners-up finish to cement ourselves back among England's - and Europe's - elite.

And it all went down at our home base in Lawrenceville: Cork Harbour Pub! Tannor, Jackson and the entire staff at CHP have made our matchdays all that they could possibly be! For years we searched the city of Pittsburgh for a place we could call home. We finally found where we belong and Cork Harbour Pub hasn't disappointed!

Probably the biggest takeway from this season past isn't anything that actually happened on the pitch.

Thanks to all of YOU we finally secured ARSENAL AMERICA SUPPORTERS BRANCH STATUS!

We were the 83rd officially recognized supporters club in the United States! This is a mark we've been striving to hit for years. From your President and all of the SCG Board members we say THANK YOU!

The page now turns to the summer transfer window, loads of speculation over new players and a lot of stressing out.

"When are Arsenal gonna sign a striker?!??!"

The 2025-26 season will be upon us in less than 75 days. The Premier League will announce the fixture list for the new campaign on 18 June. Soon enough we'll have our next journey almost mapped out.

Again a big, heartfelt thank you to everyone who is a part of this amazing group! We hope to welcome in even more next season and the seasons to come!

Enjoy your summer everyone! COME ON YOU GUNNERS!!
