And to the point raised by HCZ on Wenger relenting if somebody on the board suddenly sprouts testicles, yes I think Wenger would back down too. Just to stay in the job. He's already shown how desperate beyond measure he is. But then he'd spend his time undermining the new guy. There's no upside to Wenger staying under any circumstances. There's nothing that can be done to mitigate him staying.
Of course, there is definitely a power struggle going on between him and Gazidis, quite sad really because if we were run like a proper football club then Gazidis or someone on the board would tell him to do as he is told or go and find another job.

Wenger is in no position to dictate, he is the manager of the football club not the owner.
