What a crap season we are having and it's not much of a surprise. We'll be lucky to even get near the VT. It seems like we'll sink toward mid-table in the next few years, although the PL money deals will let TOF and The Syrup get away with further stagnation, after all the years of bullshit about winning the VT 19 seasons in a row (and reaching one CL final). The 'new normal' and all that. It looks like we'll be out of the Be All and End All two seasons in a row, so now we've been 'relegated' from the VT, the ground's the limit.
513 days to go (until TOF's next undeserved renewal; he'll be here until he is 90 - #May2040).
Mid table mediocrity (MTM) is well ahead of schedule, and we will lose our two biggest players....
When Ramsey/Welbeck start holding back on contract talks, you really know how low this club has gone
Perhaps the FA will do us a favour by banning Wenger for a year....
The lowering of expectations will be lowered even further to rationalize Wenger position at the club. Its gone from 'no right to win the league', to 'no right to finish in the top 4 ', and it will be 'no right to qualify for the Europea league' in due time
If this does happen, then those who supported Wenger - including Keown, Henry, and all the other Wenger apologists need to be named. I dont care how great a player you were for this club.
The writing has been on the wall for years yet many ignored them and stuck to the juvenile argument that only Wenger can manage Arsenal.

What exactly will that achieve? Naming them? It's not World War 2 with us identifying quislings to the resistance lynch mobs, it's not the Nuremberg trials ffs! And who exactly is going to "name them"? A few punters on a forum that they have never heard of? Ooh, I can see zero fucks being given.

I have said before on here that many of the Wenger apologists and supporters are only doing so because he is in power at this moment, when he is gone wait for the clatter of pundits changing their opinion and suddenly stating that he had stayed too long..
History will tell you that any leader/dictator with too much power loses the majority of his support on his departure.

That's exactly what will happen and no one will blink an eye when it does. It's like the way SlySports pundits cream themselves about the "quality" of the PL or the "brilliance" of Player A - it's accepted clichespeak and they all do it to make sure they fit in with the bland acceptable opinion and ensure they get more TV work. Everything is vanilla.

So Arsenal FC wont be like the Tower of London if the ravens left then?
Arsene Wenger faces further Football Association disciplinary action after describing disputed refereeing decisions as "concerning coincidences".
Before Wednesday's 2-2 draw with Chelsea the Arsenal boss criticised decisions and after the match said the awarding of a penalty was "farcical".
He claimed "when it's repeated it's not coincidence."
Wenger has already been charged with misconduct after criticising a late West Brom penalty in Sunday's draw.
The Frenchman has until 18:00 GMT on Friday to respond to that charge following his conduct in the referee's changing room at the Hawthorns after Calum Chambers was penalised for handball by referee Mike Dean.
Wenger said he would "100%" contest that charge, adding: "You can listen to every interview I said. I stick to everything I said without a problem."
Gosh! How unusual for him to think he is right about everything.
