Kroenke and Abramovich are opposite ends of the spectrum. I'd rather someone in the middle, who was responsible and made money available but wouldn't tolerate this 'Fourth place is a trophy' shit.

Biggest matchday revenue in world football, doesn't it make you proud ?

Happy to charge the fans top price, while rummaging in the bargain basement.

That's business I'm afraid,throughout the whole of industry the aim is maximum profit for minimum outlay/spend....never mind the fact Arsenal began as a football club,we are still a fantastic business model whether us fan's like it or not,and that's exactly what the board want. :banghead:

Has the wig wearing wanker driven all of his other franchises into oblivion yet? I do hope so, despicable c.unt

I'll buy a round of 60,000 luke warm Fosters at the Bowl the day that fucking wanker puts his wig in his pocket and fucks off for good. Apart from the fella at Leeds he's the worst fucking owner in all 4 divisions

If you can't organise a simple BBQ what are the odds of you sorting out 60,000 pts of lager.
