The football world has spoken.

And Arsenal fans are leading the calls. The Gunners supporters sent out a resounding message to refugees that they are welcome by the club with a huge banner displayed at Saturday's game with Stoke. It is brilliant. https://twitter.com/ArsenalLineups/status/642688730621440001 It's a truly fantastic show of support and it oozes class. Thankfully, most people supported the message. https://twitter.com/anirudh_arsenal/status/642683893108207616 This being Twitter though, it was never going to be unanimous. Right? They're fooling no-one apparently. https://twitter.com/lethabomaesela1/status/642687655776493569 Someone else is expecting a trek of supporters arriving from the west. https://twitter.com/Psilosophical/status/642692350733520896 But hats off to the fans. This is a real good gesture. And we have definitive proof that it is. A supporter of another club has ratified the good deed. https://twitter.com/DavidMercatali/status/642691698351558656
