John Cross Comedy Special

Finally got around to watching that last night.

How John Cross is able to call himself an objective journalist is beyond me - nothing more than a sycophant for Kroenke. Bigging him up here just so he hopefully can get more "exclusives".

"No other owner including Abromovich & the Glazers have spoken to the media as much as the Kroenkes"

Well, no shit dummy, as they care more about delivering on the pitch and don't need puff PR pieces to demonstrate their ambition. They don't need to talk to your shithouse rag as actions speak louder than words!

I think it was a Jeremy Wilson on he ArseAmericapodcast who pretty much said the same thing to be honest. It is an interesting point of view but if course in any case it doesn't mean Kroenke is a good owner or speaking as much as he should given his actions to date or lack of action.

Great post, letters has always loved Venga and when it was fashionable to be open about the love for the guy he was alwasy there make a joke about what others said, now he's a closet fan who pipes up anytime anyone dares say something less than complimentary about him whilst trying to convince others he actually doesn't rate him by using the lines your very correctly highlighted.

In the past he would use the "he's not a bumbling idiot" line, but now that it appears even that is diffcult to use he's found some new material to use.

*sigh*

This really isn't difficult to understand. Please try.
I DO think Wenger has failed and if we had a board who cared about progress on the field rather than on the balance sheet he'd have been sacked by now.
I DON'T think he will ever win the biggest prizes again for us.
I DON'T jump into every conversation where people criticise Wenger. If I did I'd get involved in every conversation on here which I don't.
I DO respond to some of the more extreme nonsense because...well, I think it's nonsense.
When you start saying stuff like we have an "average squad" and "awful manager" then yes, I will challenge that. It is self-evidently not true.
That doesn't mean I secretly still want Wenger to be our manager.
Is this really so difficult to grasp?
The other day I responded to a post where you said it doesn't matter how Wenger does, I said obviously that's not true but the board don't have the same goals as the fans - it was a pretty clear dig at the board and not a defence of Wenger or anyone else and I still not accused of defending Wenger.

This board is becoming like the gun lobby in the US when someone says "Umm. Maybe we should take big guns away from mentally ill people or people on no fly lists who the FBI have suspicions about?" the response is always "FUCK YOU! YOU WANT TO TAKE EVERYONE'S GUNS AWAY!". It makes sensible conversation about the issue very difficult and debate is similarly difficult on here because responding to some of the nonsense on here always leads to accusations like the above.

And people wonder why the more sensible debaters left.

When have you ever tried to get involved with a sensible debate? You chime in to challenge the most extreme or exaggerated thing in a post and choose to focus on that. Just above your post you have people talking about the AGM event and you decide to drag this one back up with saying what you've said a million times already.

Engage with what I've said or fuck off. I've had enough of your shit.
And I replied to this late because I was on a work trip and have been travelling.

Is this really the type of language and behaviour that should be coming from a mod?

Yeah.

[Cripps]

Yeah.

Well it isn't.

A moderator should be setting an example. If you can't see it maybe you should step down.
