One last chance for me, if he can't sort out our boys against the big teams and actually compete in the transfer market then he can fuck right off.

Augie- just a bloody brilliant post.
The club no longer seems to even acknowledge that there were great Arsenal teams before Wenger.
Very sad.

Re: WENGER - Views For and Against.
Please stop with the "financially constrained" bullshit. It's one of the weakest arguments there is. Arsene has pissed away literally millions in the last 9 years on bumper pay deals, pay rises and contract extensions for average and shit players, often extending their contracts and upping their wages based on nothing but average performances and long after every fucker and his cousin could see most of those players were not good enough. The money was there, he just misspent it in a vanity driven effort to produce his idea of the perfect light framed tippy tappy purist football team. And then there is the fact he had no problem accepting £7million a year whilst talking about financial constraints stopping him buying better players.Demun210 wrote:I don't buy into this idea that we've had season upon season of failure, but that's besides the point. He'll be going anyway as this in all likelihood is his last contract, but yes I'd be baffled if he didn't make the most of this supposed period where we're not as financially constrained, and could mount a better title challenge.Leyton Gooner wrote:When he doesn't and we endure three more years of failure to mount a serious challenge for the league (one that lasts into the final three games at least) will you finally admit he has to go?Demun210 wrote:This is good news, I just hope he makes the most of these 3 years, and the resources available to him.
Diaby has (allegedly) been paid in excess of £27million from Arsenal and delivered fuck all. That is shameful. I wonder how much Bendtner robbed us of?

It used to be housed in the marble halls of Highbury, now I presume it's situated somewhere within the Emirates - probably in the boardroom, seeing as he's their God...

Re: WENGER - Views For and Against.
Im not sure its as straightforeward as what statues are where, its more the ethos thats changed, sadly a lot of the ethos is hard to statisicise- so to some it "doesnt matter", its the feeling for the club towards supporters, the Pravdarisation through the website, the inexplicable season ticket rise, the "hidden" rises in red/ silver membership, the appalling injury list, the horrible transfer windows despite the so say war chest, the humiliating defeats etc etc etc. The handling of the move to the Grove, with such initial lack of history being bought with it, other than in The Boardroom ( ) especially the way that season ticket holders were moved without seeming consideration of the relevance of knowing people around, singing etc . True some of that has been improved, but not an awful lot really.topcat wrote:If this club dosnt acknowledge our great history and thinks that its "arsene fc" then why was a herbet chapman statue put up in 2011 and not an arsene wenger one.
All are what we wouldnt begin to accept a few years ago.

Maybe the statue should manage the team - at least it wouldn't look like a right dick trying to do up the zip on a sleeping bag with sleeves.Theoperator wrote:Im not sure its as straightforeward as what statues are where, its more the ethos thats changed, sadly a lot of the ethos is hard to statisicise- so to some it "doesnt matter", its the feeling for the club towards supporters, the Pravdarisation through the website, the inexplicable season ticket rise, the "hidden" rises in red/ silver membership, the appalling injury list, the horrible transfer windows despite the so say war chest, the humiliating defeats etc etc etc. The handling of the move to the Grove, with such initial lack of history being bought with it, other than in The Boardroom ( ) especially the way that season ticket holders were moved without seeming consideration of the relevance of knowing people around, singing etc .
