I think we will send Santos out on loan because he carries a load of deep fat, Friar will see to it that Wenger's wishes are carried out.

I received the Black scarf movement end of season survey via e-mail earlier today, I was going to post a couple of bits on here but I don't think that would of given a fair view of the results.
Instead I will share a link so you can see the whole thing... Happy reading :roll:

Link deleted as there is now a separate thread for this.

Georgeknows89, is it just me or has all gone very very quiet on the usmanov front ? Earlier in the year you alluded to the fact that usmanov was working away behind the scenes and would make some sort of announcement in the summer but not alone has no statement been made but he seems to have disappeared from the radar altogether. Given our woeful lack of transfer activity thus far shouldnt this be the time to turn up the heat and gain favour with the disenchanted Gooner masses ? There is no point waiting until transfer window closes to speak up

What's the point Augie, he wants the c.unt Wenger to stay on if he ever took over?

I cant stand the ITK accusations when posting here even though thought purpose was to try exchange info and opinions but always seems that every thread ends up in slanging matches if people dont agree !, so tend to just sit back and absorb.

Usmanov remains absolutely committed to Arsenal in long term and there are lots of things he has done and is doing to reaffirm that but as has been well documented, unless and until something changes with SK there is nothing that can really be done as all options have been tried and exhausted bar making an audacious over priced bid for a club/team that will eventually be out of the CL and once out find it very hard to get back !!

Red & White have a reasonable relationship and dialogue with the club these days but SK will not entertain any form of communication regarding ownership etc so they are banging heads, frustrated and just sitting tight

The 30% threshold is well and truly passed but irrelevant now

although replied here, mods might deem your question and this post as more relevant to be on the boardroom etc thread in case others want to pick up the dialogue more.

augie- deffo not aimed at you just general comment re why not said any bits- reactive rather than pro active i think best way to describe, thanks

frank comment re usmanov - well if only we all believed everything that was in the press we would win the world cup.

usmanov wants to spend money thats for sure and said likes wenger but if the idiot can't ever get Dick the Prick or IG to negotiate their way out of a paper bag then none of them would be around but all hypothetical for now

I wonder Usmanov's actual thoughts on Wenger. Reality is that nobody is going to get popular support amongst the majority of fans if they come out against Wenger, and if Usmanov criticised the manager it would make it easier for the board to paint him as disruptive, greedy and impatient.

exactly and thats the point with usmanov generally when it comes to speaking out- if he says nothing fans says he has gone quiet , if he says something it is always skewed or misinterpreted and will never win having tried all options.

he has tried front door back door and side door , noisy and quiet, pro board and ante board but at the end of the day as long as stan is the man his only commitment can be patience
