that rumour comes from robson who has offered nothing substantial to back it up. it makes no sense to allow someone to start work, see it work well, then stop them. not even wenger is that nuts.
perhaps bould is just a shit defensive coach. sure he done alright with kids but this is with the big boys, different league and expectations. maybe what we saw at the start of the season was just enthusiasm from players and now that has worn off, i don't know.
Same was said about Theo and AOC
Funny he knows he is effective on the right but people on here are crying cause they think he is better up top. So why is he not signing a deal then. He does play on the right for us so it can't be that.
the only thing the board had going for them in previous years was hope. hope that our players would buck up and win something. unfortunately as time passed we sold them all, one by one, and negated our squad to the most average point it has been in years. now they cant fall back on that hope because a load of us have seen light. a lot of friends have stopped going and loads of arsenal fans have given up. ive boycotted home games because a. the atmosphere is rubbish b. for a home game its way too expensive c. the emirates doesnt feel like home. i go to away games because the old army are there and its great to see everyone (plus the fact i love away days) and i personally think the players deserve some sort of support when stepping foot in another territory, after all, its not their fault the board and manager are acting this way. but even that commitment has died down to once every so often.
its a shame but thats the way it is. i dont think the board want dinosaurs at the games anyway. we dont put up with this tosh, unlike the new breed.
The CF demand is purely to detract from the money he wants and the fact what he really wants is out, sadly. Can't blame him really...the club is a shambles right now - how he ever got down to his last year in his contract is incredible...and there is no way we'll be offering him CL at the end of this season - so he will refuse to sign and be sold in Jan to ...man u...can't really see any other scenario to be fair. Man u need an extra midfielder - he's played with van persie before, he's finally learnt how to cross and he scores a goal or two...they'll get him for less than we paid for him I'm sure as well.

Think that was the plan and winning the CC a few years ago, would have been something to shut the fans up. I agree with Bergkampwonderland10 i too don't want the fat russian in charge of this club, but something does need to be done.
Not sure why Dein thought it would be a good idea to ever bring Stan to the club.
He'd have to be much much better then he is to go to Utd. You have to be ready when you go there, no messing around and no time for his inconsistant performances. he would have to up his game 110%, funny though loads of utd fans i've asked if they would want him, not one did. Yeah i know it means nothing.
