Gunnersaurus paid a surprise visit to Raglan Primary school in Enfield on Thursday, to tell nine-year-old Ollie Borowski that he would be Arsenal’s mascot for their FA Cup semi final with Wigan Athletic on Saturday, April 12.
Arsenal mad Ollie was presented with a special certificate, FA Cup tickets and an Arsenal strip in front of a packed assembly. He was told that he had been randomly selected from over 30,000 Junior Gunners to lead the team out onto the pitch at Wembley next week.
Ollie will also have the chance to visit the Gunners’ dressing room, before settling down to watch the game.
