Gunners or Gooners?

Over the years I've heard many people mistakenly use Gunner and Gooner interchangeably. Wrong! Now it's time to set this straight once and for all. Arsenal's nickname is the Gunners - the club was founded by a group of munitions factory workers in 1886 - hence a Gunner is someone who plays for the club or is on the coaching staff. A Gooner, on the other hand, is an Arsenal supporter. So, Thierry Henry is a Gunner while Kealo is a Gooner.
I never want to hear someone mistake the two again. You got that?
