But we do now have the financial clout to compete. The players Wenger has bought in the last 3 years have made a difference, we should now be competing. But I'm not going to shout 'Wenger Out' at every bump in the road.

Doesn't matter, it is still a massive contradiction. Everyone throws out their criticism - poorly judged or not - but you are doing exactly the same by 'simply' saying he should be sacked if he doesn't win the league and there are no more excuses. It makes no difference how regularly or not you make that statement, making it once is enough to undermine yourself. If your point was that football management is far from as straight forward as we ALL suggest, then boiling your own stance down to 'win or be sacked' is nonsensical.

I didn't say he should be sacked if we don't win the league but I do expect us to properly challenge.
There's no contradiction. Our finances has changed, my expectations have changed.

It would have been had I said he should be sacked if he doesn't win the league :lol:
Kano's own link - I assume that was supposed to show this massive contradiction - shows me saying the exact same thing, "properly challenge".

You said he thought he should have been sacked last season but we won the FA Cup. You also say if we tail off this season because we don't sign a striker or have injury problems he should be sacked.

Kano is right. You've undermined your own argument.

Meh. Whatever.
