Middle East consortium 'to bid for Arsenal'

[Xhaka Can’t]

If a group came in and invested the fans would be getting their money's worth at least and might see the money spent go elsewhere but some rich man's pockets, .

If we had owners that invested what this Club generates, what we as fans put in it and strive for success for love of the Club, I'll be as happy as a pig in shit. Even if we didn't win, as long as I see someone doing what it takes, I'll respect that.

I have no fucking respect for the current Owner/Board and am quickly losing a lot of respect I held for Wenger who is complicit in all this shit. Neither do I have any respect for someone who just comes in and fires money at everything just because he can.

Where is the skill, fun and excitement if you strip away all the risk in a transfer market? That £50m signing din't work out? Oh well, lets sign another couple more and keep doing it til it all works out.

I'm pretty much coming to terms that I've seen the best of Arsenal and have experienced the greatest joy I'm going to get out of football, and that I'll never experience that genuine joy again.

Arsenal was a passion for me, now it is a habit.

Most people would jump on board as fans are fickle whatever they say...sure they might jump up and down now (it's easy to when it's not reality) but when the club is doing well on the pitch all will be forgotten just like at every other club.

Football has changed that's the reality and you have to move with the times.

No you don't.

You can call it quits and invest your time in something you still give two fucks about.

No you don't.

It's easy to say that now, but if the team was playing great football, had quality players that entertained and also picked up the odd trophy I find it hard to believe any Arsenal fan wouldn't enjoy it.

What happens on the pitch is what matters to me the most, right now we're awful and it's made worse by the attitude of the people at the top and the way they are just counting the money, I don't see how someone coming in and investing money (as has happened at many clubs in the past) can be any worse.

Are you telling me that if we had players like Ronaldo, RVP etc you'd not watch because they happened to have cost a lot of money? I certainly would watch because football would be exciting and unpredictable again and hope would be back, these days there's no hope and it's predictable as can be and well.....boring.

Real, Barca, Bayern, Juve etc have always spent a lot and their fans don't seem to complain about it too much.

I would welcome anything at the moment. We are a rudderless cashpoint for a **** that doesnt give a shit about us. I would love to return to the days of trophies, and journalists writing superlatives about us. In 10 years, we have become what we are today, a feeder club for the 'haves' whilst we drift into oblivion.

I concur.

It's hard to imagine fans walking away if we started playing 'Champaign football' again signing up world class talent and actually competing for silverware. Even with a change of ownership there is no guarantee we'd sweep the league because there are still other teams in the Prem with good players, spending power and good managers. Wouldn't it just be evening up the odds?

[Dennis Bendtner]

At the same time I find it hard to believe that a fanbase that places such value in the memories of great teams we've had in recent years would be so happy to embrace a great oil/grocery team.

You miss the point entirely. I can't think of one person on this Board that approves of the current ownership strategy. Make appropriate use of the resources we generate, and we'll be fine and I can have pride in that.

I'm never going to have pride in someone else's ego when Arsenal is reduce to some oligarch/consortium's toy. I have other things to invest my time in. And for the record, for all this talk of 'great football' the rich bastards bring in, I can't remember a time when the quality has been so shit - in the league and at most of the recent World Cups and European Championships.

[Power n Glory]

Why not just boycott matches now if football if you've lost the passion for the game?

I don't understand why anyone gives a fuck what journos write. I would love a return to great football and competing for trophies, but the key word is 'competing' winning is the bonus - the cherry on top. And when it is earned as it was up until the recent past, nothing tastes sweeter. This Club has the capacity to achieve success that way, but not under the current ownership, nor can it be achieved by some consortium that reduces the Club to a penis extension.

I'm not about to cheer for that.
