THE WENGER THREAD

They have scored 28 goals more than us in 26 games.

I fancy them now to overtake us into 3rd, maybe even 2nd.

our squad has more talent and youth. its a crying shame.


I think its about time that the BSM, Supporters Trust, AISA etc. politely requested Wengers resignation for the sake of the club and its fans.
What - and risk missing out on those nice cosy meet-ups with Ivan and the Board?? :shock: :shock: :worried: :worried:

It has been said on here a gazillion times, but if the man (who is lauded the world over for his honesty and integrity) had genuine love of the club and had any integrity, then he would have walked after the 8-2 thrashing we took in mancland - the shame of being associated with the record defeat in our clubs 125 year history should have seen any decent manager do the honourable thing and resign but not this egotistical pric* of course :evil:

Now having sat back and doing nothing at the time and having also done nothing after the debacle in geordieland (and a few other shameful performances), the board have surely got to the point that they will take the decision out of le cock's hands - they have gotta to know that only a trophy will prevent the biggest number of season tickets being handed back to the club ever if wenker signs a new contract. Yes the top 4 money pleases them no end but dwindling ticket sales, lower attendances and negative exposure will all hit the club financially and no money motivated club will accept that

- Our pedestrian play/lack of pace
- How easily our predictable 4-5-1 was nullified
- Giroud coming up well short where a quality forward would probably have nicked a goal and certainly contributed a lot more
- Lack of substitutions

Is this what progress sounds like?
The worst thing is watching bloody Adebayor in form with Giroud playing like his feet are bricks.
When's Ramsey back (never thought i'd say that!).
At least Van Pussy didnt score

Wenger leaves the players with absolutely no direction on crucial games. When they win matches, its matches against smaller teams with less astute managers of which their own skills can see them through. But in games that matter and games that really need the input and direction of a manager, we are found wanting.

For anyone to trust this man to know what he is doing, is beyond me.

We can blame Wenger for many many things, but surely expecting him to resign over our worst ever defeat (8-0 vs Loughborough in 1896 :o ) is pushing it a little :shock: :? :lol:

sadly Augs, tonight was a success financially - game was a sell out.

Liverpool and Palace are sold out too.

And china claim that their human rights policy is totally above board but people can still see past the comments and see it for the bullshit that it is

Btw it should be noted that there seemed to be a lot of empty seats tonight so again the club can announce whatever attendance figures they want because people can still see the empty seats on tv

Fuck me giroud is slow, in fact without theo everything is slow, it's like watching a sloth in a mating ritual :roll:
Is Spuddy still emailing you his home made porno flicks, mate? :roll:
