Yup. My sentiments exactly.

The thing is, you almost feel like a traitor or something for thinking it's time to give it a rest. But when you realise nobody at the club gives a fuck about you (only your money), it doesn't seem so bad.

You kind of want a blogger like Arseblog to say the same thing. Get it out there, that money has killed the club, the game and the family. But he's got too much vested interest in keeping the charade going himself....after all, what happens when nobody is interested anymore. Who is he gonna tell crap to? He's struggling to keep it going and sounding interesting even now.

I ducked out last year in a way. Sounds silly, but I've tried to keep some distance between me and Arsenal, and almost entirely from football and the bandwagon of mainstream media and social media which sucks it's rotten cock.

More important things out there.
