Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Declan Rice seen singing along to North London Forever.
Declan Rice was called a ‘traitor’ and a ‘snake’ after being spotted singing ‘North London Forever’ ahead of his Premier League debut for Arsenal.
West Ham fans were not happy to see their former captain sing along to the Gunners anthem ahead of their opening game of the season.

But some fans watching on TV also saw Rice’s subtle action right before his Arsenal debut that convinced them that the 24-year-old ‘gets it already’ after signing from West Ham back in July. The midfielder switched east to north London on an initial five-year contract to 2028.
Eagle-eyed Arsenal supporters saw a glimpse of Rice singing along to the club’s pre-match anthem. The Gunners adopted Louis Dunford’s ‘The Angel’ during the 2021/22 campaign to help boost their pre-game atmosphere. It has since remained the club’s official go-to song.
Rice was making his first league appearance in an Arsenal shirt on Saturday against Nottingham Forest, following his £105million arrival from West Ham at the beginning of the summer transfer window.
A last-minute delay to kick-off meant Arsenal fans had to wait a further 30 minutes for their term to start. Issues with the Gunners’ new all-digital ticket process at the turnstiles meant hordes of fans remained stuck outside the ground. The match did not start until 13:00 BST.
