Moose Salehin
Moose has been a fan of the Arsenal since 1998. When he moved to the US in 2006, he felt like a forlorn missionary trying to find other local zealots in the Indianapolis area. Now, as a part of the Indy Gooners board, he gets to share the meandering journey of a season with a hundred other members. It’s one of the things he cherishes most in the world and he was honored to be elected Branch Manager in 2025.
In his professional life, Moose tries to look sage as he dispenses advice on the stock market. He is an avid reader and loves traveling the world, particularly when time doesn’t permit. If you ever run into him and you have 3.5 hours to lose, ask him about his favorite Dennis Bergkamp pass or Robert Pires half-volley. His eyes will be a’gleam and your ears will be a’sore. You will regret it.

Seth Thomas
Seth is passionate about football, has watched all his kids play football at various levels, and is a licensed USSF referee. A frequent traveler, Seth was introduced to the Arsenal by a friend in 2010 while traveling on mission work in Nairobi, Kenya. He has been following the Gunners ever since. This past year, Seth and his son Seth Mark made their first trip to the Emirates, watching in the North Bank as Eddie touched in the stoppage time winner over Manchester United.
Seth works as an attorney working in environmental cleanup, insurance coverage, and toxic tort litigation matters. While most of Seth's career has been in private practice, he has also worked overseas as Special Counsel supporting anti-human trafficking work in Manila Philippines.
Seth joined the IndyGooners leadership in 2022.

Schyler Rahman
Schyler's love for the Arsenal was born in the doldrums of the banter years where, like many prospective American football fans, he chose a team based on the most superficial reason: to play Fifa. At the time he gave himself a pat on the back for not simply choosing the sqaud with the best ratings - instead choosing the one with the coolest badge. Little did he know how serendipitous his choice would be. A decade on, if he's not watching the Arsenal at the Tap, there is a fair chance he's thinking about them. The tears, disappointments, and triumphs are all well worth it.
A proud IU grad with a Masters in Public Adminstration, he works in finance and is also a musician, video and tabletop gamer, basketball lover, and all-around useless trivia nerd. He is very happy to talk your ear off about all of the above (especially The Arsenal).

Clayton Maddox
Although born to be a Gooner, Clayton didn’t pledge his allegiance to Arsenal until 2011, when he and his friends chose their clubs while facing off in FIFA. The Giroud-and-Walcott era will always hold a special place in his heart—no matter how frustrating it could be at times. And while he still carries a grudge over Oxlade-Chamberlain’s double-agent performance and subsequent transfer to Liverpool, he does regret dropping his kit off at Goodwill.
As a member of the Indy Gooners board, Clayton puts his graphic design skills to use on everything from scarves and shot glasses to social media posts. Professionally, he works in digital marketing within the grocery industry. When he’s not watching Arsenal, he’s likely cooking a new meal with his wife from their collection of cookbooks, walking on the Monon, or relaxing on the couch with their two Shih Tzus. -
Sonni Simon
From birth Sonni was a Gooner. She watched Arsenal games throughout her childhood, inspiring her to play soccer for 12 years. In her teens and early adult years she was a silent supporter until her father, Brandy Simon, took her to an Indy Gooners match day. She’s been an avid member since.
Within the board, Sonni helps out with social media presence as well as giving a youthful perspective on decisions. Professionally, she works as a SpEd assistant in an elementary school. When not working or watching a game, you can find her gaming with her friends, playing dnd, or working on a new crafting project. -
Peter Elliott
Pete has been a proud Indy Gooner since 2013 and was the Branch Manager from 2019 to 2025. When he is not gathering with fellow Gooners to support the Arsenal, Pete is an attorney that helps with resolving business and commercial disputes and is active in his local bar associations.
Along with his lovely and very understanding wife, Pete has two young kids, and when they give him some spare time, he enjoys gardening, cooking, and playing whatever rec sport is in season at the time. Pete and family recently transitioned on loan to the Chicago Gooners, but was granted emeritus board status in light of his many years of service Feel free to say hey to Pete whenever you see him back at the pub but be ready to hear some theories about Yaya Sanogo's secret genius or how Laurant Koscielny was set up to be a scapegoat when he left.
