In 1913, the club crossed the city to Arsenal Stadium in Highbury, becoming close neighbours of Tottenham Hotspur, and creating the North London derby. In 1919, The Arsenal saw the promotion of The Arsenal to The Football League voted into the newly enlarged First Division, despite only listing the club sixth in the pre-war First Division. Some books have speculated that the club won this year’s First Division election by dubious means. With a new First Division and home and away attendances double those at the Manor Ground, Arsenal’s budget grew rapidly. Their first trophies they won was the Kent Senior Cup and London Charity Cup in 1889–90 and the London Senior Cup in 1890–91 these were the only football association trophies Arsenal won during their time in South East London. In 1891, Royal Arsenal became the first London club to turn professional. They registered their new name as Woolwich Arsenal, with the Football League when the club ascended later that year.
The Arsenal started dropping its name in official documents, gradually shifting its name for the final time towards Arsenal, as it is generally known today. The long-standing Latin motto of the club is \”Victoria Concordia Crescit\”. In October 1886, Scotsman David Danskin and his fellow 15 munitions workers in Woolwich, Kent, now in South. East London, formed Arsenal asdial Square, with each member contributing sixpence and Danskins adding another three shillings to help form the club. In October 1891 the club became Royal Arsenal F. C.’s first home was Plumstead Common, though they spent most of their time on the other side of Plumstead, at the Manors Ground. In 1893, Royal. Arsenal became a limited liability company in 1893, and became The Arsenal. They moved to the new Arsenal stadium in 1913, soon after relegation back to the Second Division, and took the name of the whole complex a month later. In 2006, they move to the nearby Emirates Stadium, and in 2009, they moved to The Emirates Stadium. In the 1930s, Arsenal won five League Championships and two FA Cups and another FA Cup and two Championships after the war. In 1970–71, they won their first League and FA Cup Double, including two more Doubles. They completed the 20th century with the highest average league position. Arsène Wenger was the longest-serving manager and won the most trophies. He won a record seven FA Cups.
