He can fuck off!
5 points thrown away in 7 days against pure and utter shite sides!
So why doesn't the Board tell him to fuck off then? They have done anything but that in fact.
Yes wenger should have been given a severe bollocking by the board a long time ago and yes I wish they would all fcuk off but just cos the board have not sacked him does not negate the responsibilty for the fcuk up's wenger is making on an all to regular basis
Thing is Augie he made plenty of the same sort of fuckups from 1998-2005 but had some financial backing and as a result the sort of team that covered those mistakes constantly. He made plenty of the same errors in those years but we still finished top two every year. Now its getting be we'll finish top, ummmmmmmmmm....... because these teams can't cover those mistakes .
Yes - it's okay to slag a manager here even if it may not be entirely justified but not a Board that has used and lied to the supporters repeatedly to make itself even wealthier - they're proper businessmen and cheating the people who trust you is proper business today not to be discussed by us common rabble. Not our place.

Thank you! You have your board thread. I think two so please as a kind request leave this one alone
I said I'm not going to get into a flaming contest with you. I'm not going to pretend that this doesn't have anything to do with the Board's policies either. You want to aid and abet their deception of all of us fine but I won't. If that is appropraite I'll mention it, and I think it is given how the Board seems solely focussed on celebrating more records profits right now.
You want to pretend that's okay fine. You don't want to talk about it that's fine but don't tell me or anyone else we can't because its not irrelevant to this.

Again you fail to understand the comment. This thread is about the game today and the teams performance. Its not about the performance of the board for which there are other threads available. I am not telling you or anyone to keep shut about it but post on the relevant thread.
it wasnt anyones fault we lost today..It was MINE...I was in the fecking lower tiers and ive never seen us win in the lowers.
Unfortunately we are gonna get fucked at home to Birmingham coz im fecking sitting behing Alex mcleish..

I want Sagna and Clichy out of the team aswell, Eboue and Gibbs would be my first choice full backs.
Best player was Nasri, he carried the team yet again..
3-2 flattered us, we were so bad we could had lost by 5 or 6..
But of course Arsene Knows
Why Sagna?
He was diabolical on their 1st goal, maybe he's getting lessons on how to defend from Gael Clichy.
Its been two years since both Clichy and Sagna were anything like top class.The way Sagna got done up like a kipper for the 1st goal you would have thought he was against Messi not a championship player,But the alternative is that clown Eboue that says it all

It's quite clear . At elast before you could say either we can't afford to or don't want to invest in a squad of sufficemnt quality to win the League. Now its pretty clear we don't want to invest in such a squad. And the manager is fine with that or unwilling to risk his very well-paying job to demand the support he needs obviously.
The one way to take the heat off the of everyone - the Club, the Board, The Manager, and the Team would be to at least genuinely c hallenge to win the Premiership, and on today's performance they already had given up that idea ahead of today which is inexcusable and really sad.

Probably most fans will agree with me that if we finish 3rd or 4th (and not challenge for the league) and win the fa cup and carling cup, they will be quite happy
Todays result is another example of the Wenger traits that those like myself on here have been highlighting for as long as I have been a member of this forum.
ARROGANCE the notion that he could field an even weeker side than he already had available and still have enough to beat the baggies.
STUBBORNNESS the refusal to admit after 20-30minutes that this wasn't the case so carry on regardless, when all around knew he was wrong.
BELEF IN FUCKING AWFUL PLAYERS ie Almunia Diaby etc, the fact that thes players are at our club is a disgrace in itself. Almunia in particular because he is actually unbelieveably the best keeper we have available (I know people will say whar abour scezeny, but at the end of the day he is unproven, the only footage I've seen of him for us was in austria in pre-season, and he didn't look like anything special)
Defeat at chavski next week would mean 1 point form a possible 9, if there is a Wengerite on here who believes that is the form of champions then he should come forward now and explain how.

I am a wengerite and already mentioned my disappointment as to what went on today. Give WS a chance as fans are so frustrated with Almunia they will actually accept errors by the number 4 choice GK.
