Mate. I agree emphatically that clubs like Citeh and the Chavs have a financial edge over us that we cannot bridge - however hard we try to run a successful commercial operation. There could be no more justifiable reason for our lack of success. But I think the real issue here - and the one that has worn many Gooners down, is that we could have done more these part few years with what we have had. And this season more than any other has shown that we are if anything regressing in terms of the efficacy of Wenger's methods. I for one believe that it is the manager's shortcomings, rather than our rivals' riches, that have sunk us this season. I know that you share many of the same frustrations on the playing side. And this is why I feel that finances have become a smokescreen hiding where we are going wrong under Wenger - and are really a different argument.
It could be the fact that I'm mentally exhausted after watching the FA cup semi mind and experiencing the full gamut of emotions there are to be had, but can't really disagree with you
