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.
Of course Durham and Gough are discussing it.
Chap called Richard just called. Probably pointless telling you if you didn't hear it but was just THE best call I've heard. £1700 ST holder who said he was in the same room as Wenger 6 years ago and was in awe of the man. Now he doesn't go to games cos he can't stand to be in the same stadium as him. But a really really passionate fan who didn't rant and rave just said it how it is.
If you're on here mate, take a bow son
the times when Wenger should be accessible to the fans and answer their questions such as the AGM have been controlled to make it impossible to question him (with wengers obvious agreement ) as has our right to express our unhappiness in the ground through banners etc so the only way to get our message across is to shout it at a train station....sad but created by the man himself ,his arrogance,stubborness and his support for those who currently run OUR club.....
All over the world, guns are being dropped, people are gathering in city centres, people are writing it down in their diaries whilst others will never forget where they were the day that.....
.....three drunken men at a train station shouted a few not very nice words to a football manager for 20 seconds
As long as Wenger still has the support of the board and people like geoffarsenal, he's not going anywhere. He's here to stay till he gets tired of playing with his toy, AFC.

There is a difference between abuse and criticism.
I really agree with Herd about the train station incident, it smacked of the type of thing Spurs or Chelsea fans would do.
The existing fans groups?
None of them exist for the purpose of removing Wenger...they all have other agendas.
I needs a new group solely for the purpose of getting in a new manager.
As for the mainstream media, it loves controversy and is not at all shy of ramping up the criticism of Wenger.
One Bard has the right idea, we all have our strengths and should combine them.
Quartz - how many people were involved in this incident at the train station (roughly)? Honestly, we are making the biggest 'non-story' in history headline news. Someone films themselves swearing at a famous person and uploads it to YouTube. Whoopee fucking doo. Its hardly 3,000 people baying for blood is it?

I know mate - That is Exactly how it feels.
And man it fucking hurts.
Yeah mate. Never in my life would i imagine that Wenger would turn out to be this way. I feel like we are North Koreans and Wenger is Kim Jong-un. Nobody dares to speak up and he gets to do whatever he wants.
there is frustration and no outlet, you can't get a chant going at the bowl thats for sure, and definitely not one that will criticize wenger. you get slagged off by the media if you bring a banner that politely asks him to leave and you get akbs and other deluded sods slagging you off online if you write an anti wenger post on the guardian website.
fact is, it's carried over a little bit. you have to expect that and I bet it was fucking satisfying for those fans to get it out at the station, hopefully it's the start of the revolution.

You can keep your pathetic "Swear at Wenger" protest, it is not something I would be a part of.
