Indeed, Stead made the fewest number of appearances for the two north London clubs of those who made the switch - just 16 in total.
His only first-team start for Arsenal came in a 1-0 win over Southampton in September 1978, one week after his debut as a substitute against Wolves.
Stead struggled to make an impact during his time at the Club and left in 1979. He later featured for Oxford.
