Arsenal Armory Square almost complete

Gunners' fans may already be aware of Armory Square; the new landmark at the Emirates Stadium where fans can dedicate a shiny granate stone to a friend or loved on. Quite a few of these have already been installed, and barriers are being removed to reveal the first personal dedications:

Some of the recently-installed dedications in the stadium grounds
At present, the stones only cover a smallish section of the stadium grounds, in front of the shop. But illustrations for the final walkway show that it will soon become a much larger feature.
Those wishing to celebrate their love for the team by buying and personalising a stone can do so here. Prices start at just £50, which seems quite a bargain for a message that will last a lifetime. Anyone buying a stone will also get their own certificate, including the inscription on the stone and a unique reference number. You'll also get a replica stone: a miniature version of the real thing that you can keep around the house.
Arsenal.com has provided a few examples of what fans may want to have written on a stone:The traditional "Arsenal Forever" and "gooner til I die" as well as the slightly weirder "Ouch Get Off My Brick!"
All profits from Armoury Square will go towards the "Arsenalisation" (what a great word!) of the
Emirates. Stones purchased now will be installed in Armoury
square early in 2010.
Would you like to dedicate a stone to anyone in Armory Square, and what would you like it to say?
