I think thats what piresistable was trying to say, and I agree.
Fergie, despite winning four league titles, three league cups and the champions league in the last six years, bought in players over a month ago, they're prepped up, settled in, ready to go and all know their job.
Whereas we're a fucking mess. Our captain hasn't appeared all pre-season, one of the best players wants away, we can't get rid of the dross AND we have a cl qualifier coming up.
If you honestly believe 'people got irked at the result' over the weekend you really have no idea what's going on at our club.
It's hardly worth the bother, selsdon.
maybe I didnt make my point clearly. I know people werent just irked at the result, and its the whole shambles we're in at our club.
What im trying to say is that this situation is a powder keg now, and it cant go on like this with people on his back after every little thing and silly quote he makes
we still just about have a decent squad ready to start the new season, and a Whole stadium booing at the result of a friendly game, dosent do anything to help the mindset of the lads in their preparations, and must be pretty unsettling.
I am seriously dreading to think whats gonna happen at Toon, Munich and the emirates for our first 3 games if we dont get the right result. It will be carnage and will totally derail the season even before its begun. Also you are just giving wenger another excuse to say something like "well the fans weren't behind us from day 1 so what chance did we have"
The situation has become untenible now in my eyes and I genuinely feel its gonna get really ugly very rapidly.
I also want the guy to step aside, down or upwards, fuck I dont care as long as he gets out of the helm, and lets someone else have a go. But whilst he's at the helm hes in charge and I just dont see what pathetic booing will achieve. especially at a seasons start. Just put your feelings for wenger aside for now, and just think what sort of season did Villa have last year when O'Neill walked a week before the seasons start.
If 10 matches into the new season our record reads W:3 D:4 L:3 then lets all get down the emirates with "wenger out" placards, but until then lets just see how they get on.
