wenger and the media

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

no thats true, boycotting games is the best way to hit them but realistically speaking, when has that ever happened? when will it ever happen? there is always a conveyor belt of casual fans that will keep stan rich for at least the next couple of years. but i agree, people are starting to wake up and smell the coffee, although boycotting games is still a slow process. we still attract crowds of 55k so it'll take years to get it down to 20k-30k where it will actually make a difference. but by then stan will be long gone my friend, basking in his millions, sipping whiskey in barbados and asking hill-wood for a toke on his cuban cigar.

where will we be? fuck knows. hopefully not too screwed.

I don't know why PHW and his cronies are still here. They had their pay day. Continuity is one thing but what purpose can PHW possibly serve that couldn't be replicated by a much cheaper and more socially aware chimpanzee?

I don't think many games would have to be boycotted, and maybe not even the home games. If the hardcore away fans stopped turning up, just for a couple of games, that would be enough to cause a storm that might force Kroenke into making a few minor adjustments in the fan's favour. Empty sections at away matches would be pretty powerful. Like a half executed threat and a message the fans are prepared to do more than wave banners or wear T-shirts.

The fans could gather at the Emirates instead, maybe. In Scream masks with machetes.

stan will keep him here as a thank you for making him shit loads of money. hill-wood will no doubt have played the 'im arsenal through and through gov'nor, me old man and his dog used to come here and i inherited the shares through generations of family. i lurve the club more than anyone in this world' line. with fiszman gone, dein gone and lady nina gone, hill-wood is the last spearhead from The Arsenal remaining. he represents the past and wont be gone anytime soon, him and stan are probably best friends. hill-wood is a multimillionaire after selling up and stan's long term portfolio will now sky rocket.

will away fans really make a difference? im not sure. picture the imagery of an empty emirates though, the media would have a field day. that's where the money is and where it can really hurt stan. i wont stop going away days completely but it's now once every blue moon. away days are fun, well at least they used to be- stepping foot into another territory with your head held up high and a fuck you to everyone in the city centre cause you're the top dogs. long gone are them days im afraid, now we usually keep our head down in embarrassment post match.





how can he not miss these days? fucking brings a tear to my eye.

I am sure it is the same reason Wenger is still here; they think they have more to give (sorry, take)

Was shocked to find out guy I knew had packed up his (2) club level tickets after we sold RvC, this guy had been to every game home and away for years and years (inc the european matches); however I'm sure you saw the research re football tourists and how much they spend per game compared to the regulars (like myself that have learnt that a the new pies are gash), loyalty for Arsenal doesn't pay...

Not the away games though, you won't get the tourists on a train to Wigan on a snowy night.
