Reigning Premier League champions Arsenal return to competitive action this Sunday, August 16, when they take on FA Cup holders Manchester City in the FA Community Shield.
The traditional season curtain-raiser at Cardiff's Principality Stadium comes just days before the new Premier League campaign kicks off on Friday, August 21, with top-flight newcomers Coventry City's trip to Arsenal.
Below, we present the concluding part of the 2026/27 edition of Music Week's annual music industry football supporters A-Z in association with Shoot Music.
Sign up here for the Shoot Music Week Fantasy League – the FPL league for the music industry – and pick your squad of 15 Premier League players, with a budget of £100 million, before 6.30pm on August 21. Enter league code: u0v14z. Or, if you already have a team, click here to auto-join.
Last year's winner of the Gold Disc prize was Mike Werbowy of Communion ONE. Previous victors have come from DF Concerts, EMI, Motive Unknown, Kobalt, PIAS and Decca.
