Time To Man Up

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 ManUre fans bought 100,000 green and yellow scarves and others formed FC United. What did the Glazers do? Fuck All. The fans are nothing to the owners of a football club, we're all replaceable by the thousands on the waiting lists.
I applaud the sentiment but if we're all brutally honest the club will just regard the marchers as 'silly' and 'the sort they don't want', snear and just carrying on sipping the champers in the Boardroom

I am a believer that any protest will put pressure on wenger as he is a guy that doesnt like to be questioned or challenged in any way sort or form :roll: If he feels presure or feels that he is being scrutinised on the back of this protest then it is a good days work imo 8)

I would also point out that it is very important to send a message to kroenke......the fans are not willing to put up with this shit any longer. Yes the same board are largely still in place but we have an owner now as opposed to a co-operative and he will not want opposition to his regime from the get go either

But the protests are not aimed at him. I agree with Eboue's post above - no matter how much you say or do nothing will change. Gazidis and co. are only here as part of their latest career development. Their aim is to max out in the next 3 years or so, then fuck off with their share options and bonuses nicely paid out.

There's still thousands of newbies on the member list waiting to take photos of themselves on their iPhones inside the bowl (I think its called the 'matchday experience' or some such bollocks now)
