Someone working above Wenger :lol: That will work well.
LOL. I pity the poor eunuch who lands that role. You'd have to be a total fool to take it, especially having just watched Wenger run to Kroneke.Quote:

So just carrying on as normal then.
So come on. Now that this is done and dusted - and what a shocker - who are the Secret 7? Fess up. I assume at least half were joking, but there must be somebody out there who was serious and believes Wenger staying on for another 2 years (AT LEAST - OMG!) is a good thing. Would be genuinely amazedinterested to hear the reasoning.
I doubt even Arsenal would dare. It'd make the club a bigger laughing stock than it already is.Quote:

I'm sorry to say that next season Wenger & Kroenke deserve all the abuse and nasty vitriol directed at them from the stands at every match. We should show them the same contempt they have shown us.
If he thinks this season has been bad then wait until it actually turns nasty!
Really? Every match? Right from the start of the season? That seems a bit silly. Most of us don't want Wenger to be our manager, but he is.Quote:

But if you are going to go then get behind the team - if not the manager - FFS.
Otherwise it's a bit like thinking Ospina shouldn't have been picked for the Cup Final (arguably true, but I can see why Wenger did) and so booing him at every opportunity. How is that going to help? We want the team to win, don't we?
I'm sure everything will be reset now for the start of next season. There's no point in flying planes, booing, bringing banners etc. He's here for 2 more years at least, they obviously won't sack him no matter how hostile it gets.
The team will always have my support but I'm appalled with the people in charge of this club. Not going to spend another penny on them for a long time.
All I can say for Wenger is that he better hope and pray he can turn it around over the next 2 years, because this season will seem very pleasant in comparison to what will inevitably come his way.
Yet again, the "get behind the team" thing is a Wenger myth. The fans have always been behind the team. It's the decade long failure Wenger who they can't stand. It is quite possible to cheer the team on while jeering Wenger. 90 minutes is plenty of time to do both. And for those who reckon that would unsettle and disadvantage the players, perhaps. But nowhere near as much as that selfish bastard Wenger and his months long leaving or staying shite. Players have much bigger problems than the fans giving Wenger stick. They have to somehow drag results out of his incompetence.Quote:

This club has no bottle when it comes to making things happen, they're opportunists that take adavantage of situations to soften the blows of those decisions.
I'm one of them.Quote:

2 more years of the same shit!!! How does this man deserve a new contract? Tel he worst thing is it looks like he agreed the new deal ages ago, which means whatever the outcome was for this season he was gonna stay.
Now I'm wondering if he had lost the FA Cup final, would we have seen a different outcome.

Let's play a little game, how will next season go? Don't all answer at once.
Sigh...two more years of the same old shit, can't wait.
It's not just that, he's now deciding the role of a new appointment, it's not going to be a Director of Football because Arsene doesn't believe in that, it's going to be some technical director hybrid role, basically another Wenger Puppet, Dick Law is staying too, unbelievable stuff going on at the club, scary.Quote:

Though it's entirely likely he never once thought about changing the manager regardless of what happened this season.
Just so galling to know for sure now what a spineless and unambitious bunch are running our club.
Yes, every match and right from the start.Quote:

Well guess what, I've had enough.
I support the team no matter what but I will not support that arsehole with anything.
He doesn't give a fuck about me or any other fan, so I don't give a fuck about him.
He can fuck right off and I can't wait to shout it to him next season.
I'm so angry about this. I genuinely started to think that he might do the right thing and call it day, leave on a high. But no.
Selfish to the last. Ignorant, arrogant and deluded. Everyone else is wrong and he is right.
Blah, blah, blah.
Wanker, arsehole, bumbling idiot fuck face!!!!
Fucking fuming!!
Everything we ever said about him he has proven to be true!
Fucking cock ass!!!
You can't do it from the start, that really would be sabotaging the team and proving Wenger right about his contempt for the fans. Things were fine this year until the usual post-Christmas collapse, then it got ugly with good reason.
Those who still attend games will have to grin and bare it until the time is right to speak up again. I'm taking up an armchair role now because it's not worth my time and money anymore.
It's how I feel right now.
I'm sure I will calm down a bit nearer the time but right now he can kiss my arse.
I don't get that thinking. What's wrong with giving the team a rousing reception when they come onto the pitch and then do a chorus of "Fuck off Wenger you selfish cunt?" Every match. At the start and at the end regardless of the scoreline? In fact make a point of raising an extra cheer for the players, stick behind them through the good and the bad, but let Wenger have it full pelt every match. We all know the lying scumbag will carry on implying the fans are not behind the team, but the consistency of the unwavering support for the team and the unrelenting abuse for Wenger will unravel his lies and innuendos.Quote:

It's easy to think that protests against Wenger and support for the team can be distinguished, but in practice it would only descend into a farce. Let's not forget the players were hammered this season as well.
The time will come again to fly the planes and boo the shit out of the arsehole, but let's just remember there is a half decent team there that needs backing too.
RIP Arsenal
I barely watched games this season because it just felt like a drag and it's going to be the same as long as he's here. The board have proven themselves to be spineless cunts only bothered about the cash too
I wonder how the AST meeting will go? The survey they did showed pretty much unanimous support for Wenger stepping down.
I think they also wanted assurances about a director of football, transfers, etc too.
I know they have as much sway as the rest of the doddering old cunts on the board but hopefully, someone brings a big bag of dogshit to throw at Arsene & Ivan.
That's how I see it. You can't really disentangle supporting the manager and the players. Especially if the players are behind him. And at times this year it's seemed like they weren't but if Sanchez does stay it will surely show he does have faith in Wenger and the reactions after the Cup Final looked like manager and players were a fairly tight unit.Quote:

I hate to say it but looks like the FA cup final was a real curse for us, a result we may be rueing for years
Wenger will have probably stayed but i don't think he will have been able to avoid a confrontation with the board to make him accept changes.
The Great Reset is well underway for another season. We're already hearing the bold cries of, "You can't do that at the START of a season!". Some fans don't seem to get that if you keep behaving the same way then you'll get the same result. Meanwhile, Stan and Arsene make up the rules as they go. But you have the "real" fans out there, telling everyone what can and can't be done. These are the same "real" fans who break into chants of "One Arsene Wenger" when push comes to shove. Entitled to their opinion but, fuck them anyway. They are ruining this club.
Yeah the way I see it there's no reason no to demonstrate throughout the match, not the players fault but at the end of the day the owner and manager don't give a damn so why should the fans, it's not like we're going to be competing for anything decent anyway so why should we care?
Best way would be to have a emptyish stadium every match of course, but that just isn't going to happen realistically, so the only other method is to make your feelings clear, sure Wenger will blame the fans etc, but he already does when anything goes wrong and quite frankly who cares what he thinks, his opinions are borderline ridiculous anyway, noone takes him seriously these days, opposition fans want him to stay on so they can see us fail year on year
Everyone believes the FA cup win was the trigger for this sad announcement. But the cup final was also the final match of the season, and I think that's always when they intended to announce what had been decided all season. I think what has surprised our lords and masters is the fans sticking their noses in and raising their voices at the uncertainty a failure to announce Wenger's fate was causing. Wenger and the gang would have initially had no concept of mere pleb fans being interested in "our affairs", so I guess the "disrespectful" baying of the unwashed came as a surprise. We're supposed to cheer when the team wins and stay quiet when they lose. Just as the board cheers when Wenger has a plan and shuts the fuck up when he invariably doesn't. Wenger said as much - be more like spud fans. His cynical calls for fans to "get behind the team", when there wasn't a single banner or plane displaying "Time for the team to leave".Quote:

Oh, and the team that ran its bollocks off for a trophy but jogged through the season, well those poor lambs were affected too. So says their daddy, even if players like Bellerin have relayed an entirely different story.
When the voices of the grubby fans became intolerable, then we started hearing about directors of football and almost signing Mbappe and Arsene being personally aggrieved than plebs had found the audacity to question his years of mediocrity.
Off we go again. Round and around. A manager and board completely out of touch, a fanbase divided between those who can see 10-2 defeats and 18 point deficits for what they really are and the rest who believe it is impolite to scream when their anus is tearing.

The announcement would have been made this week irregardlessQuote:
