A Brave New World

Post by lowerwest »

Whats its going to take to get Usmanov in charge,Dein back on the board and rid of Wenger.

Without that its clear we are going nowhere. Remember the barren years of the early 80s another time when we couldnt keep anyone well its coming back. 7th or worse and clearly Londons 3rd best club.

Suggestion-a really crap finish this year will surely help Ussie's hand. We need rid of the dead wood on the pitch,in the dugout and on the board.

The Fight starts now..

The problem now is that Kroenke has a majority shareholding and therefore controls the shareholder vote, making it virtually impossible for Usmanov to get on to the board.

The only hope is that the value of Kroenke's investment declines significantly and Usmanov offers to take him out at a price where he can save face.

Sadly an Usmanov buy out is the only way. Kroenke will continue to focus on the club's commercial and property developments to maximise the cash return. The football business will be run as it is. Wenger is crucial to Kroenke because he is probably alone in world football in having a £6m per annum job but being excused from the pressure of winning trophies, in return for making Stan more money

i guess the only way is for the fans to vote with their feet. arsenal fans traditionally have been very patient.

are these mystical waiting lists exactly that?
