Thought what I was going through is very similar to what is happening to AFC, only difference is I am much better!

Having supported the Arsenal since 1971, I too have seen some frustrating rubbish, However, if we had not had the golden first 10 years of Wenger, most supporters would probably be a lot happier with the last 5 years. After 18 years of disappointment before we won in 1989, the current drought is not long. A manager who regularly got us 4th or better over 5 years would have been considered good before Graham/Wenger. Most other teams have supporters who have to see themselves ending up with bugger all for decades but they still turn up and they still support.

However, I still hope that the team will turn it around. Maybe it won't happen but it won't stop me hoping that it will. Being a supporter sucks sometimes especially after a bad run like this but if you really care about the Arsenal you have to stick with it. Criticise players and/or the manager for reasons - that is OK - but don't ever stop wanting the team to win, wanting it to get better.

That was beautiful Coney. . . .I would like to invite you to be a nember of GWs very dead poets society. I was still waiting to happen in 1971 but was weened on a diet of 80s Arsenal which was after the 1980 loss to WHU/Paul Allen in the FAC came nowhere near anything till Graham era. Can anyone imagine the pure joy of that night at Anfield, the relief, the sight of seeing Liverpool who shat on most losing their power? It was. . . .like nothing else!

No fault of anybody cos you cant help when you are born but those who have only had Wenger should count themselves very lucky and try to accept that bad times always accompany the good, fuck try being a Citeh fan!
the decline has been painful, and long and for some with evident and obvious flaws. . . .tactis, subsitutions, transfer windows but we are supporters and it is us the club needseven though we feel unappreciated at time. . .we have to srand ip, dust ourselvrd snd scream our fucking voices hoarse for the team. . .I aint as old as Coney but an older than a fair few on GW. . .but I still feel gutted when we lose especually at games like last season Newcastle, I loe awake muttering

I dont consider myself any more of a supporter than any of you, maube I am still to grow up but please dont stop caring. . .the pain of a defeat should hit you as hard as the joy of a win. . .Coney back me up. . .Paul Allen. . .Stein in the LC. . .Rix Euro missed PK. . .hurt but Micky Thomas. . .Wright . . .Invincibles. . .pure joy

Looking forward to the next game? Well I fucking ain't! We will struggle to win five games this season! Championship next year! Wenger you cunt!

[Niall_Quinn]

Yes.

It's worth trying anything once and if you don't like it just don't do it again.

[Niall_Quinn]

We are not in the 60s

WTF? Since when? Why are you talking such crazy shit?

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Football isnt as enjoyable as it once was. Not just Arsenal but overall.

This, Football is shite in general these days. Maybe its because im getting older so i don't get excited as much unless its like an important game

[Olivier's xmas twist]

We're in the age of diminished expectations at Arsenal. Sure, growing up is part of the reason why a lot of fans aren't as bothered when we lose as before, and some of it is due to the fact that many players don't seem to give a damn when we lose (look at Traore against United for example) But I think another obvious reason is that losing these days is just not particularly unexpected. Before, we believed we could win every game, and any defeat was a shock to the system. Now, with Wenger having dismantled our squad over successive seasons and left it threadbare, we're not surprised when we drop points given the lack of quality in the starting XI. This is why so many people are satisfied with a 1-0 win against Swansea and a draw at Dortmund. Our expectations have been significantly lowered due to the actions by the board and the manager, so much so that results which in the past would have been cause for concern are now seen as good ones.

My expectations were lowered because i knew we'd struggle to compete with Barcelona/mancs city or Chavs even if we spent a bundle. I have also felt we have no right to be in the top 4 tbh and will take the season as it comes. i think we'd only get upset if we thought we'd win the league but now we no we have no chance people are not so bothered.

I think we have a chance to get top 4 as pool and spuds will struggle so no too upset.

Maybe its just growing up, but when we used to get beaten, I would be so annoyed that night, but these days, I just dont care that much. Dont get me wrong, I love to see them win, but when they do lose, I dont let it get to me. Most of the players dont care, so why should I.

Same here smashed a few radios in my time and Cried a few times too, But as my old man pointed out to me wh get so angry its not like Arsenal pay me anything or my mortgage. so liek you say if the players who they pay don't get upset why should i when we loose.
