Wenger out billboard

Post by **HashKads** » Mon Jan 23, 2012 10:37 pm

Do you reckon we could get enough of us together to get a billboard opposite the ground with the simple words: WENGER OUT on it? The directors and *word censored* will see it and won't be able to do anything about it.

I contacted the 2 companies that have boards next to the roundabout opposite the armoury and they charge around Â£450 - Â£700.

The club will probably try put a stop to it mind. I'm willing to put Â£25 into the pot and organise it. Only Â£675 to go

I am in!

I guess the question is does the company actually print this said banner as well, or is this an additional cost?

Its just a thought I had today so just collecting ideas. We'd have to pay extra to get it designed and printed.

How long will they have it up for given that price ?

If its a short amount of time you don't want to time it when we got a patch of away games.

But id be interested.

"Wenger Out" is not enough for it to say.

It must say why.

Something like "7 Trophyless seasons" or "From Invincibles to Unwinables" etc.

As soon as it is up, the press must be present to photo it, as the club would likely get it removed ASAP.

Good idea Quartz.

The club would have no authority to remove it as it would be on a privately rented billboard.

Correct me if I'm wrong,

The original BSM board was a lot more aggressive than just "FORWARD?"
But the company that owns the space/board refused to let them print what they were going to. Don't remember if was concerns over vandalising or something but very much doubt they would allow it.

Keeping on side with the club could prove more lucrative for them as well.

Yeah your right. The first design was rejected. We don't need to worry about keeping the club on side, because we just want the *word censored* gone.

I meant the club being kept on side by the billboard owners.
Imagine they are hoping for a big "armoury this way" type deal for a couple of years. Rather than a one off by some angry fans?

Failing that.....

"baaaa baaaa. Flock this way. Buy direct, help us pay for caviar in the boardroom"

That type of shit y'know

Bollocks am I.

Can't keep putting the club before my family when they play like they couldn't give 2 fucks.

You know anyone who wants my 2 spares? Seeing as you've gotta stand next to 'em
