Shifty...... Really??

In June 2011, JustGiving claimed that it had provided its service for more than 9,000 UK registered charities and 1.9 million fundraising pages for users, collecting over £770 million since launch.[5] The cumulative total passed £1 billion in March 2012

Yeah, NOT really.

I've given on the site before, to family doing sponsored stuff.

Always worked for me.

Don't worry. Just give your money.

Don't criticise the team before or during a match???? Why not?????

I've sung myself to a standstill so many times with this lot ( never more than the CL Semi Final against Man Utd ) but they still poop their pants.

Maybe if they stopped collapsing like a drunk at closing time we'd get right behind them. Whatever flak this current shower get they deserve every bit of it.

They don't respond to encouragement

Tbf lads I admire your spirit, then again I admire feminists spirit but always chuckle when I see them on tv moaning at just about everything, including being born a woman no doubt.

But I think this is the milenium of protestors, those who voted to stay in eu, those who don't want trump in America, those who don't want trump in England, ban the hunt, keep the hunt, 5 Chileans who want Sanchez to leave Arsenal, :roll: :lol: , 150 gooners who want wenger out, let's not forget the 10 people in my road who protested to keep the local post office, I salute you all, but none of these marches changed a thing (my local post office is now a bookies :( ).

Wenger will go when he wants to go.

I agree with that 8) S

Society nowadays (in most situations) seems to expect people to hand over their hard earned money without any rights of expectation - go into a restaurant and get bad food or poor service and you would be expected to complain (regardless of the feelings of the maître D, or the waiters or the poor c.unts that cooked the food), but go to a footie match (and hand over a similar amount) and you are expected to blindly support in case you offend our poor timid excuses for footballers who are earning on average 100k per week :roll: These pampered prima donna's don't know what real pressure or abuse is - in days gone by players would be absolutely slaughtered for the shit they regularly serve us, and if they played in other countries their fans would go mental at them (only this week we seen examples of psg players cars get vandalized after barca game).

Totally agree. And, what is the point to protest after the game when everybody goes home and none is interested? The aim for the protest, any protest is to get attention and before the game is the only time to do it. If the players can't handle it... who cares!

Doesn't looks as tho I'll be out of work in time to attend today. Gutted, as Tuesday was the most fun I've had at Arsenal all season. Are those unable to be there doing the tweet on kick-off?

Speaking of tweets. Word of the plane has certainly put the cat amongst the pigeons. A lot of very unhappy akbs on twitter :lol: :lol: :barscarf:

Let's be honest here and admit that there will be players in that dressing room who will want wenker gone - I'm not saying that as a knock on wenker because it is a harsh reality that there will always be players in a squad that will have a dislike/distrust for their manager. Does anybody think that the ox will be hurt or offended by a sign calling for wenkers removal ? Would perez be disgusted ? Sanchez ? Players are by nature selfish b**tards and they will only support wenker for as long as they believe that there is a good chance that he will stay - if they feel that he is going, they will do or say nothing to offend the fans cos they will know that next season the fans will be here and wenker wont, and they wont want to be the next person they fans target

You miss 100% of the shots you never take.

We are doing something about it and Tuesday proved that this can be massively effective and bring about change.

Whether we achieve our ultimate aim or not is another matter.

I agree with you to the extent that this protest must focus on one man, and one man alone - Arsene Wenger. While many of us loathe Stan Kronke and have very little respect for the majority of the players, Kronke is for another day and those players are simply a reflection on the man who has bought them, coached them, paid them and selected them. They are not the object of our protest.

But if you're saying that we shouldn't be directing anti-Wenger protests within the eyesight or hearing of our delicate flowers while they are preparing for a match, then I disagree. As others have said, pre-match and during the match is the only sensible time to get the message across. So long as that message is all about Wenger then that's all that counts.
