The way to get their attention

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

The crucial thing now is that everybody weighs in fully behind this push cos a strong show of numbers is fundemental in getting momentum and appearing unified to both the club and media
I'll set it up later but the problem at the moment is the name, I'm thinking we may need a back up incase it is infringement.

I agree we need to do things properly and a paypal account is a good idea.

Obviously I will be available for 100% of anything that needs to be done.


As for new names Jay, what else do we have in mind?

How about putting The ed of the Gooner and those mods forward as the "leaders" for this?

We need to have a "board" in place to lead this. banners are def the way to start this off. If we wait until the end of the season then Gazidis and his cronies will be laughing as the season will be over and all will be quiet. then we have lost the momentum.

ED??????

King Jay seems to be a doing a very good job already mate.

I am sure in time a group will be formed that will push this forward. On the front line I am there for this and will help as much as I can both with ideas and implementing them.

I agree with steve o when he takes issue with the use of victory through harmony - the very essence of what we are doing is going to cause disharmony and the old *word censored* hill wood will be the first to point that out :roll: :x

I would also like something in a banner that refer's to us as The Arsenal - I would hope that it would highlight the pride that is so lacking amongst certain sections of the club

Just an idea but whoever takes control of this we must stop moaning on here and start doing something.

The AFC not PLC is a nice subtle way of getting teh attention of everyone in the ground.
It appears whoever you talk to feels the same although some are obviously more vocal than others.

At first glance, people might not get what we are about?

Possible alternative name:
FOOTBALL NOT FINANCE

Trust me we will do something. I will do this alone if need be.

The group setting this up are real gooners that know other real gooners. We will have the contacts and the support of other like minded fans.

This isn’t set up by keyboard warriors but by real fans that invest heavily in the club both financially and by effort of going week in week out.

Not saying it makes us better fans but it does give certainty that we will put our all into this and that it isn’t just talk
