Who was the win against then? Or was that 3-0 city game more recent than I thought? I cant remember us beating anyone else away.

I'm not defending our record in any way, but is this right? I can think of three wins off the top of my head; 1-0 vs Utd in May 2011, 5-3 vs Chelsea in Oct 2011 and 1-0 vs City in Apr 2012. Even the 3-0 victory away at City is less than five years ago...

:?
It's based on away games and against teams that have been in the top 4 over the last 5 seasons. Yeah you are right. Besides the Chelsea game we have also won at city in 2010/2011 season. It should be 2 away win but still the record is atrocious

Actually I do hear that Sochaux have a terrific 17 year old midfielder, he's only 5ft 5 ins tall, but he's a tidy little player, with quick feet, and is a dab hand at playing square balls across the park against rubbish opposition...

Seriously, I do worry about David Moyes. If/when Utd turf him out for being crap and having absolutely no idea, might we hear that his experience there 'doesn't make him a bad manager' as he 'inherited an aging team', and next thing is he turns up in North London (should AW choose to go) and brings that carthorse Fellaini with him, plus the coaching skills of P Neville. It's easy to get rid of a manager, but a bit more difficult to get someone better in. I know that's a terrible reason not to act, but we could end up with someone truly awful.

I would give Wenger one more transfer window.

arsenalnewsreview.co.uk reckons the board are split into Kroenke plsu various others on one side wanting Wenger to stay, and various others wanting Wenger to leave.
Do any of our board members actually have opinions? Always imagined it like politics/a drug gang with Kroenke as PM/kingpin and Gazidis as enforcer with the rest of them being no-mark cowards.

Bracewell-Smith seemed to find one about 7 years too late.

There has only been one away win, 3-0 v Man C in 2010/11. We beat Chelsea 5-3 in 2011/12 but they finished 6th. 4 points from 45 is right.

So we've established that John Cross, Patrick Barclay and my Dad have all voted yes. Who else was on the list......I suppose depending which day of the week it was Piers Morgan and 1989 might also have voted yes :D
