That kind of behaviour is far more embarrassing than anything AFTV put out. Well, except for that stupid music video...

It's exploitative to an extent but you can't really say that it isn't a reflection on how we feel as a fanbase, because it is. Just maybe dialled up a notch. We've all been tearing our hair out now for a long time so it shouldn't come as a surprise to see others doing the same. AFTV is a great platform, it's far more likely to gain traction with the club than a few rants and rambles on Twitter/blogs are.
Arsenal Fan TV is an open forum. If we weren’t pulling off shocker after shocker in performances, it wouldn’t always be so negative. But I’d argue it’s the done more to put pressure on the club than any other platform. Most of the blogging sites like Arseblog have taken a passive stance and I guess that’s because it’s the opinion of one fan or a couple of like minded writers. Arsenal Fan TV won’t shy away from broadcasting the opinion of those unafraid of saying what the issue is and that’s helped to put the pressure on the manager.

We’ll see what Gazidis means by ‘catalyst of change’ but it’s the sort of platform that can’t be ignored. I can’t knock Robbie for making a success of the channel. It can be embarrassing but it’s not exploitation. I can only hope that anyone with enough anger and passion to attack Robbie has the same sort of anger for Wenger and the Board. If not, they’re an absolute idiot and deserve to be exploited by the club. If that’s the attitude, fuck the club. Let them have it their way.
