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.

When no-one else would sign Koscielny
There’s no cover for Alex Song
You give me lots of poor excuses
And transfer windows that drag on
And you’re always there to spend five grand
On someone from Ligue Deux
That’s the wonder.....the wonder of you
And when you leave the future’s brighter
Cos when you’re here we win nothing,
To Ivan G, you’re worth a fortune
With all the bullshit that you spin
I’ll guess I’ll never know the reason why
Some love you like they do
But all I will say..
..is thanks for Abou
I really hope anybody participating in a Wenger out protest have thought about it twice and know what they are doing. For all his stubbornness and frustrating ideas I'm worried fans are actually going to drive Wenger out of the club for the sake of change, with very little idea of what they want instead.
I'm yet to hear anybody come up with a name that convinces me could do a better job....and even if there were managers I thought could do a better job, would I trust this board to bring any of them in?.... I'm certain the joy some people would have if Wenger was sacked / resigned would only last until the appointment of the next manager.
The only protest I would support is one where we point out to Wenger that he needs to realise what everybody else does..that we need players that are prepared to give 110% to win....instead of the 80% we currently are getting. Wenger doesn't have the mentality, and propbably never will have, but with people around him to provide it he will be ok...as history have shown .

i would run around highbury naked if wenger sacked or got so ill that he has to quit.
I don't want Arsene out but he must be made to change his ways.
His ideals are good but must be realistic. Yes play good football but supplement in the areas that really need it and of course get rid of all the average crap that we have.
As George used to say success is built on a solid foundation. This actually means a solid defence rather than a solid financial base (which does naturally help).
A little bit of speculate to accumulate is needed but i want Arsene to do this not some short term totally money dependent manager.

If I heard / read an equally rational explanation from somebody who wants Wenger out I would at least consider if it's a good idea to replace him with somebody else...

That's quality.
Agreed
and It's time for.....
time for adieu also scans quite nicely
certainly going to make a double sided banner and will join in with any chants - its out last chance to get a message accross to those $hit c4nt$ running the club (including AW the dictator). Any protest before hand, during or after definetly want to be in. Wouldn't be surprised to see a few conflicts seeing as (just even lookin at my twitter) there are still plenty of people willing to defend wenger when he is absolutely undefendable and living off the past.
Wenger - Beat It, sign in front of the Jackson statue, brilliant
I think it would get a lot of media attention as it's quite a clever little play. If you got a good picture of it snapped up and sent around the web, it could spread the message pretty well, or at least prove that there is noticible discontent abound.
It's not about numbers sometimes, it's about the appearance of numbers. Get that image making the rounds and you'll be gold.

Alternatively, if we want to make sure Wenger pesters the Board for all the transfer funds he'll need to make us successful again, the sign could read: Don't Stop Till You Get Enough!!
Off the top of my head and my apologies for going off-topic...........
At this time, we should all accept that we want AW to beat it, ‘cos he couldn’t heal the world. But do you remember the time that we ruled the league? It was a real thriller that season and a few of our players were smooth criminals. But AW should call it a day now as the league isn’t so black or white anymore. Human nature will take over as we start to accept our short-comings and we (hopefully) get back to victory! Or else I will just scream.
