The answer is YES which is NOT acceptable, not for any Gooner inc you.
If we stagnate, we will regress because others will improve. You keep on about points totals, compared to last year it is massive regression, not stagnation. The FA cup has turned out to be the worst thing to happen to us for our future success, is getting the monkey off our back worth another 3 years of "stagnation". I personally would have preffered to lose to Wigan in the semi's & finish 5th on the basis that we may now ave a manager who's team shows progress in relation to competing at the top.

Meh, whatever.
Stagnation or Regression - doesn't matter, simply not good enough from a guy paid £8 mill with a promise to fans that we are there to compete.Quote:

After 15 games last season: 35 points

Clear regression.
Wenger out.
My post was a response to Mr Letters who seems to argue that we are doing inexplicably shit this season, where as I'm pointing out its just another example of Groundhog season.Quote:

And what part of my message makes you believe I think it is acceptable, I am making the point that this isn't an extraordinary season it's just another turd sandwich....and despite what the media believe the fans don't want Wenger out because of the season we are having, it's because we have seen it one too many times before.Quote:

I think some people saw the FA cup win, the new finances in place & the Sanchez signing as the dawn of a new era. For others the new era needed a manager with a modern approach to the game & someone who would use the new finances properly, for the good of the team. This was the biggest concern for the Wenger doubters because of history not because of the "gift" & here we are. A defensive mess, no defensive midfielder of any substance & relying on Sanchez so heavily that we will burn him out.Quote:

You don't even have to look at points, we can all see on the pitch just how far standards have fallen. Even last season when we were winning consistently we were boring as fuck most of the time, most wins were by the odd goal or 2. Effective yes but unrecognisable and rarely convincing.
We are debating over various degrees of shit. It doesn't matter guys, it's still shit.
