In this day and age, it's not uncommon to hear the odd tale of a football fan going to extraordinary lengths to declare their love for their team... but this one trumps them all.

The tweet below shows an extract from a magazine, which explains how an Arsenal fan tricked his wife into naming their daughter 'Lanesra' on the grounds that it was simply a nice name. Many of you will have twigged that the name is in fact Arsenal spelled backwards. Not only did he get away with it, Lanesra's mum only realised two years later - when he admitted it. https://twitter.com/nikpostinger/status/684002542808862720
