Great, we're just gonna become another Chelsea/Man City, fake club with bought success.

You used to be everything to me
Now you're tired of fighting
An so that's where David Dein went too... is coming home.
Society is now one polished horde
Formed by two mighty tribes, the bores and the bored.
"After all, it was the Gunners’ goalkeeper who started the move that culminated in Thomas’ crowning glory. It was Lukic who, in injury time, decided to throw the ball out to Lee Dixon rather than lump it long..."
Hmmmm....not really that fussed who owns us. They seem keen on keeping Wenger so it would be interesting to see if much changed with new ownership. Not sure if they could pump much into the club with the FFP rules.
Hope it happens but I doubt it will. Most supporters sound as if they'd rather have Kroenke own the club than Arabs as well(which I don't understand tbh), so don't think it would go down well with a lot of the fans either.
I wonder what the point is of a takeover if FFP are coming in within the next 2 years. I think the story is BS but for me, I just want change at the club. Whatever we have out there is clearly not working, so I am down for Arabs or Indians or Pakistanis taking over, dont care!
Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..
Story is out on the Sun too, as 'exclusive'

So kroenke's ready to sell up, and that's his price: £400m profit for doing precisely fuck all? Not bad.
Still, if it forces the nutty professor to stand aside then hell why not.
I'm not a fan of this, in particular the "consortium" aspect of it. That's always a recipe for disaster and mismanagement.
If they were eager to purchase the club why hide behind an anonymous consortium? God knows what type of shady people could be in there. You only have to look at the likes of Portsmouth and Notts County to see some of the dodgy offshore consortiums who have sprung up, thrown a lot of money at the start, destroyed the stability and long term viability of the club and then done a runner after asset stripping the club.
Not that I would object that much to a takeover from another wealthy party who's prepared to at least increase investment in the club but it has to be someone out in the open, relatively well known and who's business history and finances can be publicly scrutinised.
Never thought I'd ever say this but I'd much rather keep Stan than this.
