You don't see the same level of protests this season not because the level of anti-Wenger sentiment has subsided (quite the opposite really) but more rather because people realise it's ultimately futile after last season. People are just tired and apathetic now.

Short of doing a Blackpool style protest where fans literally invade the pitch and stop a match I'm not sure what else is there left to do.
What helped Wenger a lot I think was the home form in general....won 16 out of 20 league games at the Emirates. On the very slight occasion where we won games away from home the reaction was more muted.

There is an element of Stockholm syndrome as well, I think the majority of fans want him gone but didn’t feel like they could bring themselves to hound him out. Whether that good will will last if he makes good on his stated intent to honour his contract....who knows.
