    It was a simple question with an obvious answer.

    Why would you bother watching if you thought that?

    And when we were at our best were the refs in our pay, or does that only work when we're not at the top?

    Come on now.

    You can't honestly look at some of the dodgy decisions that are made and think it's all on the level.

    And please don't say they even themselves out.
    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    We've never had the refs under our influence.

    we were just too good at the time and everyone hated us even more because of it.

    It sounds pretty paranoid to say that when we were top it was despite the corruption and that when other teams are doing well it's all because of corruption.
    Especially when other teams' fans are equally paranoid and saying how much the media love Arsenal (have a look at glory glory, for example)
    We can't lol at them and dismiss them as ridiculous without thinking a bit carefully about making the same claims ourselves.

    Yes, they are corrupt.

    Man City has probably not had a bad decision against them all season so far. Barcelona get away with shit 99% of the time. Chelsea, Madrid, City, Monaco, PSG gives two fucks about the Fair Play rules and so far, nothing has happened to them!

    Qatar were awarded the world cup.

    Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..

    Nothing paranoid about pointing out the shocking string of decisions city have been getting recently.
