TIME TO BE HEARD!

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 numbers just arent there and its sad.

Fair play to the BSM who dont share my exact sentiments, but the guys have done all they can to show some active form of protest at what is going on at our club.

(dont mean to bring this up as a dig at all)
But after our worst start ever you couldnt drum up the numbers to lift a banner, what kind of numbers will you get for a "wenger out" protest.

Fact is most are very quick to post their frustrastions on the net and then back a cause. But when it comes to physically doing something, the numbers diminish.

facebook, twitter, youtube....doesnt count for shit.

walk the walk.

Wenger Out......not gunna work.

A protest at the club as a whole has merit and will get far more support.

I just dont go anymore. I will not go the the souless bowl unless there is a change of leadership or a major shift in the clubs aspirations. Yes I will renew my membership but thats all the money that the club will get out of me. I'm not on Facebook and don't do twatter, so non attendance is my form of protest.

Arsenal FC not Arsene FC

I feel so upbeat today, I don't care about the defeat, the worm has finally turned and the dissent is sure to frow in the coming weeks.
We will be rid of him by the end of the season, of that there is no doubt. :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

Dream on. Self harm is here to stay.....well at least till 2014

I hope that every week of the next two and a bit years are so painful for him and that he's left standing in Basil Fawlty pose with 12000 in the bowl as we get rolled over in the Thursday night cup by some part-timers from Malta

Anyone noticed (or not as the case maybe) that the players that usual tweet even after a defeat appear to have gone into media lockdown.

The only mention was from Chesney which was along the line of "Need to grow up and delete Twitter".

Why say that after a game? :?
No other player (except Santos who I expect isn't in the county) has since Twitted.
Players have been silenced?
I guess it's been done as Wenger is feeling the pressure and doesn't want a potential Barton/Warnock sitation and be sack via social media. Or doesn't want players talking full stop.

It's not just him. No-one's said a dickie.

Jack, the Ox, Rambo, RVP, Benayoun, Sagna, TV5 and a few others are on twitter some post more then others. Usually it's more the younger gen like Jack and co tweet often and even after a defeat in some kind of brain washed Wenger-ism....but nothing. :shock:

Look if u r a season ticket holder u support kroenke who supports Wenger

So any season ticket holder who wants Wenger out and decides to renew this season is a complete and utter fucking moron

Do I have to make myself more clear?

I've had my ST longer than you've been alive, I was here long before the manager and current board and intend to be around after they've gone.

It's very easy when you're a Red Member to start demanding ST holders make the sacrifice. What fucking sacrifice will you be making? Not bothering to by a ticket for Wigan at home? I bet you'd take a **** one if it was offered.

For the record I have my ST, will probably give up next year due to financial reasons and yesterday was only the 2nd game I've attended at home.

I've seen more shit teams over The Arsenal than good ones, so no I won't be giving it up 'cos the team are shit, it'd be 'cos I can no longer afford it.

YOU ARE MY ARSENAL

Reg,

so let get this straight. You have attended 2 home games this season and you are a season ticket holder?? :shock:
what is the point of that? Im sorry but I just dont get that. From my point of view you are just lining the pockets of the yank who is the majority shareholder.

I guess you have your reasons so I won't take it any further and I usually respect most of your posts anyway, as I actually think you are doing a good job with the BSM. Much better than most of the posters on here who talk the talk but do fuck all about it.

I personally am boycotting all league games from now on until the board is removed. I already had boycotted all category A league games since we moved to the Emirates as I think the prices rip fans off.

Reg stated that he had only attended 2 home games this season, he didn't say that his season ticket had gone unused and the seat left empty.

As I think Chippy said on another thread, yesterday's booing is a turning point. It wasn't orchestrated, it was an instant reaction to the manager's tactics at a point when fans were on a high after the goal. The first time it has happened in 15 years and I can never remember Ferguson receiving that in 25 years. If only the 'You don't know what you're doing' was all around the ground like the '6% you're avin a larf' was last season then it would have been a real bullet.
I think he was shocked that some of us could turn on him like that and if February is a wash out too then....well.....the impossible might be looking like a reality!!

Why ? because I'm a supporter who has been through thick & thin with this club for over 40 years & had a season ticket for the last 32 seasons & believe me I've seen some shit home away & abroad. Why ? So that when morons ike you RM fuck off back inder the rock you crawled out from I may get MY Arsenal back
