Arsenal FC Supporters Liaison Officer Jill Smith and official Victor Wright were last night the guests of honour for the official opening of the Arsenal Supporters' Club (Malta) in Sta Venera. The two north London club representatives landed in Malta yesterday afternoon. With them were the FA Premiership Trophy and the FA Cup which the Gunners won last year to make it a memorable Double, the third for them since being established way back in 1886. Yesterday, Smith and Wright also took part in Channel 47's Kick-Off sports programme with the world-renowned cups on show. The supporters' club will be holding a bi-annual meeting today at the Hilton Hotel with photo sessions scheduled between 2.30 and 5.30 p.m. Another photo session is planned for tomorrow at the club in Sta Venera (tel. 21-470145) between 4 and 6 p.m.
