And how the fuck is Kroenke going to see it when he is in Denver? He wont be there for the Bayern game..He owns the club the other directors are just puppets.The banner when it is shown on live tv is shown all over the world
From Wikipedia:

Enos Stanley "Stan" Kroenke (/ˈkroʊŋki/; born July 29, 1947) is an American business entrepreneur.

He is the owner of Kroenke Sports Enterprises, which includes the Denver Nuggets of the NBA, Colorado Avalanche of the NHL, Colorado Rapids of Major League Soccer, Colorado Mammoth of the National Lacrosse League and the Los Angeles Rams of the NFL (the Colorado sports properties are in the name of Josh Kroenke, one of his children, to satisfy NFL ownership restrictions that forbid a team owner from owning teams in other markets). Kroenke is also the largest shareholder of English football club Arsenal.
Kroenke is named after St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Famers Enos Slaughter and Stan Musial. His wife, Ann Walton Kroenke, is the daughter of Walmart co-founder James Walton. Kroenke was estimated to be worth $US 8 billion by Forbes in 2016.


Enoscunto doesn't give a flying fart about Banners, protests etc - Not Unless they affect the cash register...and so if Protests can affect wenger his lap dog stool pigeon at Arsenal adversely which they will - Remember Wenger HATES Confrontation - He is 'Spineless'.

And If Protests can sway a percentage of the fans and the media - which in turn can cause negative publicity and so affect the money side of things then he will take notice..he is first and foremost interested in Profit above all else. If he thought he could get another manager in who could increase the profit margin he would drop Wenger like a safe.

So Banners may seem in-effectual to some...But, they are one aspect of protests, but also a very good visual means of letting the wig wearingcunt know that things are not all well across the pond.

We start with #WENGER OUT - It is the first of many steps. :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

Protesting outside the ground but not protesting in the ground seems counter productive to me, and for the media 'luvvies' it will smack of fickleness, happy to protest but also want to be entertained by the scinitllating football on show :rubchin:

Unfortunately the PR department will spin that out in about 5 seconds flat.... 'small group of protestors outside the ground, but as can be seen there was nothing but loyal fans enjoying the 'Dunkirk' victory our amazing manager and players put on to narrowly miss out within the stadium' :wink:

As people said this has to be done smart with no room for it to be spun out by the Club or his media darlings, and by 'Darlings' i mean sycophantic cnuts!!

I thought the point was that the majority of the protesters aren't going in? I know I'm not.

i dont think there is an easy answer to this.
I will be one of the protesters outside of the ground who wouldnt dream of getting a ticket for this dead rubber of a match.

however the fact is that this match will be full of "football tourists" who will have a ticket - who will not protest.
Gooner Muzz is correct in saying that the media will focus on these "fans" inside the ground.

It is a dilemma - of course back in the days when football was so cheap and you could just turn up on the night there would be protests outside of the ground that would then continue inside the ground. This just isn't possible though these days, and why it is so difficult to bring forcible change.

There is another way of spinning it as well... we are protesting outside the ground because we are not prepared to spend another penny getting into the ground until he goes and things change. If anybody does get asked, that should be the answer.

Its really frustrating that there hasn't been more protests inside the ground. I have pretty much lost hope of this ever happening inside the Emirates to be honest. But I think this protest is even for significant for the fact that many of us are only going to the ground for this reason alone .... and that wont be finishing our protest at 7:40 so we can go and queue at the turnstiles.

I should clarify that I am agreeing very reluctantly about this protest not turning abusive because lets be honest, Wenger deserves hostility way more than he deserves respect and dignity. If we could guarantee a big turn out, then I would definitely like to see it turned up a few notches - as Augie put it.

An intimidating Italian fan style protest would be my preference ... but sadly this will never happen at Arsenal. If Wenger had done what he has done with us at one of the big Italian clubs, then they would have driven him out a long time ago.

that will work IF the protest is still continuing outside the ground once the match has kicked off

There were some last year but the problem is trying to get enough people together in one place. At the end of the "Time for Change" game there were about half a dozen or more large banners in one area, which looked ok but most of them didn't turn up the next week.

We can get banners in and we can get them seem in the media, just not to numbers that would make a difference. :(

After the "time for a change" protest and the failed " walk out", I posted on here that I had given up. If other people couldn't be bothered to make an effort...why should I waste my time.

This thread, and seemingly good support, has rekindled a bit of fight in me though, and I will attend every one that life/work allows.
So I will be travelling up from Kent for this .....and I'm looking forward to it now. :twisted:
At least if we're still moaning about him in 2yrs time...we can say we tried.

As others have said, it really does need to be kept respectful though (as hard as that will be). Nothing to do with respect to him or showing Arsenal class....its the only way it will gather support, and not be written off as a handful of mouthy yobs.
I still believe the majority of fans feel it is time for him to go, unfortunately the majority of those don't want to hound him out....so a firm, non abusive "no new contract" message is the only option.
We also need the media cretins, if not on our side, at least with a sympathetic stance. Whatever we may think of him, he is still regarded by many in tv/press as a legend. Any over the top abuse will be met with scorn by them. Whilst we can see through their sycophantic bullshit, lots of the sheep hang on their every word.

Having said that.... I will probably have a few beers before hand.....so cant be held responsible for my actions :wink:

see you there

The best result that the protest could achieve would be vast banks of empty seats in the stadium for this non event. Sadly as posted elsewhere once the tickets went on ticket exchange they were snapped up by tourists etc. So you are correct in saying that the media will look at the full seats and the manufactured attendance figure rather than asking why genuine fans either protested or stayed away.
