I think you've summed that up pretty well there Clash. Arseblog did defend TOF for way too long for anyone who claims to have any perspective on the Arsenal. I've never had him down as being a younger fan and if he did experience the brief joys of 'Neil Out' and support that push then he has no excuse for prevaricating over pulling the trigger on TOF. When the time has come for someone to go, then it's time and he was several years too late on TOF.Clash wrote: ↑Tue Nov 12, 2019 12:28 amI’m 46 and I’m pretty sure Arseblog is older than me so he will have experienced as far back as the Terry Neill era at least.bunch wrote: ↑Mon Nov 11, 2019 11:01 pm
To be fair, I think Arseblog was calling for a change of manager at least 2 seasons before Wenger finally departed. Not as long as me and many others but it is understandable that younger fans like Arseblog, Gunnerblog and Stillman had a strong emotional attachment to the Frenchman as they grew into Arsenal knowing only Arsene.
Now its different. You fail you go. Emery has failed, he should go.
Personally I think he defended Wenger and the regime way beyond what was acceptable, especially for someone who’s now demanding the following manager be sacked after 18 months.
Makes me wonder if going with popular option to maximise their own revenue is the priority with a lot of these bloggers but only they know the truth.
I know we all feel that things are different now that TOF has gone and as the post above said - you fail you go - and that is certainly truer now following the last managerial departure but that is our take on it not the club's. Whether wiggy is prepared to get shot of Dick half way through the season is anyones guess. There is the argument that while Dick is taking the heat then Sanllehi and Edu have a bit of thinking time to start making plans so why put the pressure back on themselves by going to wiggy about making a new appointment when the guy who was also wiggy's first choice is failing. It's a job to these guys, it's not their life's passion and as long as we are still top 6 then this gets to rumble on for a bit longer.
