Match Reaction vs Stoke City (away)

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

I definitely think everything is much more subdued, which I understand, the problem is you can see the manager clearly feels under less pressure now, his attitude in pres conferences is testament to that, he's now defending our points total and citing progress in the same sentence and in the last few matches has been talking about togetherness and mental strength which is ridiculous.

You can celebrate when you win, but that doesn't stop you from still maintaining the same line as you do when we lose, which is his time is up and change of tactics and a few wins changes nothing, seems to me that although people might well think that, it's no longer coming across to the club.

I definitely think you're full of shit

You are basing this opinion because fans aren't like you, and P n G mentions the Le Grove blogger you remind me of the term he coins "grief porn". I don't think bad results annoy you, they seem to be your sustenance. For fans who go week in, week out however maybe just maybe they don't get high on the same misery as you do and just want to see a good game of football and be able to suspend for a few hours the bigger context.

Football is a form of escapism after all, this idea that you need to reaffirm with every sentence that you want Wenger to go or somehow you are perpetuating the cycle is the kind of nonsense that only an armchair fan could come out with.

I think the boycott of the Sunderland game is a good idea, and you have nothing but pure supposition to suggest that people won't go along with it just because of what happened on Saturday
