The Banner

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.

Frank Butcher: well done sire.
Wanna know something? The producer on TalkSport is my best friend from childhood! Was best man at my wedding and is a die in the wool Gooner.
He told me the whole story yesterday. He texted me in the afternoon to say that you had apparently pulled out of the interview and asked me to PM you on OLG....Then he texted me a bit later to say it was AKBs trying to derail and silence you!

I'll buy you a pint for your superb performance on TS mate, very well done.

Next thing is, I am going to get my mate to put me on it.
You might think Babatunde sounds deranged on a forum but in real life the argument will be very different....

That's putting it as well as anyone can ....

So where's the march/demo starting tomorrow?

Agreed Baba - well done again Frank.

The most important thing we can all do now is to carry on as Frank has started - no insults, no swearing, just express our dismay and concerns at the direction our great club is heading under Wenger and the current board. If people start hooting and hollering it will be so easy to dismiss us as a bunch of nutters and we'll never have the chance to get our message out. Doing it the way Frank did it has so much more impact in these days of PR and image - and it will encourage any waverers to join in.

Baba - make sure you post nice and early to let us know when you're gonna be on Talk Sport mate. Don't want to miss that.

i want it shown too mate.

Sadly a few of aint going the game and i dont want SWL doing this on his own. This whole thing has got huge. There is a plan in place abd its crucial we have more numbers with us after the fuss we have made.

It will be at a game soon though. By the way if anyone wants to come on board and support us on this (in person) please get in touch.

I agree- Im not going to be able to help in an active capacity so I really respect wht you guys are doing but I think its all about doing it properly.

SWL Gooner and all of you have gone to great lengths to organise this so for my pennysworth the worst thing you can do is rush it and reduce the effect of it.

Whenever you are ready to do it, know that you have mine and many others morale support on the matter. Its important because this banner has become a symbol of supporters views and you guys take as long as it takes so that when it is ready we really ram the message home to the GIC and the board.

I agree mate

No mistakes can be made now, we have to be in numbers or we could end up looking bad.

Big group of us in one place, has to be an away game

Is there actually a protest tomorrow? This is the first I've heard of it. What exactly will it involve? I'd definitely be up for it but would like some info first (I'm not otherwise going to the match).
