All of them have to be rooted out of the club and sent packing. Only the fans can do it through a sustained campaign, and that's not going to happen. Too many tourist fans who treat football as a consumer item, which is it. So they are getting what they are paying for, a day out in a comfy stadium and maybe a chance to get on the big screen and wave. Plus that kicking around thing that goes on on the grassy bit in the middle which the oiks seem to get excited about from time to time.Quote:

Let's face it. He is getting another contract. They are coining it in. The one thing I can take comfort from is that none of those coins are mine.
On the one hand you can say he's getting a big fat reward for failing to do his job for a decade now. On the other you can say he's getting a big fat reward for being the best in the business (emphasis on business). Depends how you are looking at it, from the comfortable armchair in the cigar club or from outside on the street, nose pressed against the window.Quote:

Can that be right? I had just assumed we were doing better against top 6 rivals. We've beaten the chavs, the gypos, I guess the 3-0 vs Utd has slipped out of the 21 game window. Fuck, that's really, really, bad. It's a shameful record. How the hell does he keep getting away with it?Quote:

The journos have given up doing even basic fact checking. Here the Sun just goes with the zero wins repetition:

Surely one of their "sports journalists" can remember the chav game? It wasn't so long ago.
It's away from Home, the only teams in the current top six we have beaten away from home in the last four years is City in 2015 and Spurs in 2014.Quote:

Not trying to downplay Wenger's shitty achievement of course. Well done him, I say give him 3 more years to see if he can beat that record by delivering just the one win.Quote:

While it looks bad and while Wenger should rightly be called up on such an atrocious record, it's still a shitty, almost meaningless statistic.
You can still win the league by not winning the so called big games. I'm sure Man Utd did it in the RVC season and Manchester City did when they won it the following season. We just don't show up against the likes of Everton or at home to flipping Middlesbrough.
Furthermore, that statistic blissfully ignores Leicester City. Current top 6 is convenient. It's the top 6 Sky wanted. The top 6 that should always be. Let them ignore the fact that we were the only team to beat the champions on their home turf last season. (Again, before anyone jumps on me, I reiterate that Wenger should be ashamed at constant non performances at Stamford Bridge and Old Trafford)
NQ doing a poor letters impression....jeez!
We're still better than the spuds.Quote:
