    Our 'rowers' are a damn sight better than Stoke's...

    In our case it would be the Thames that swarmed all over the boat and held it back.
    Every time after a bad loss Wenger starts bleating at the defence. Disgraceful from a manager...it was the same last year after all those maulings we recieved. How do you go about blaming the players you bought trained and instructed for repeated bad performances. Our players have no discipline or game nous, to break up counter-attacks. Our most experienced CB is a beanpole with no physicality, who cannot run, cannot jump and rarely scores goals for someone so tall. Who is responsible for this mess?

    Well yes I don't think you will get any argument from me that a do nothing board should be held to account for giving Wenger free reign.

    Can blame Kroenke all you like, but Wenger was in total unquestioned control long before he became majority shareholder

    Should they have sacked him after the FA Cup win?

    The thing is we can't do much about the ownership of the club, if we had a manager who was more intent on winning however this would probably be a non-issue, he's go the money to spend it's his fault he doesn't spend it correctly.

    No owner is going to complain if you go out on a limb a spend money and win, they might if you do and don't deliver....seems Wenger is too risk averse, he's happy with 4th place and achievement he seems to value just as much as any of the major trophies.

    In the middle of the season when we're only 3 points away from the top 4?

    Stoke are not Oxford.
    On a normal calm river, on a lovely sunny day our rowers should out-row Stoke, but on a freezing cold day with turbulent water the strength of Stoke can prevail. Therefore we need rowers able to adapt to this situation whereas we go out on to turbulent waters with our fair weather rowers every week.

    F--k me you two - you're confusing me know. PnG's trying to stop Letter's from sacking Wenger - I need a lie down.
