Who's Next?

[Power n Glory]

This report seems more about villifying fans than anything, I wouldn't be surprised that it wasn't put out by the club as a way of briefing against fans so they can be dismissed as nasty malcontents.

There is a suggestion that Wenger was being called a c**t by fans near his dugout, but fans who have season tickets in this area have strenuously denied it and have suggested that there were calls for him to go, but no abusive language

Where did you see that?

And as NQ states I think anyone subjecting Wenger to vitriolic abuse would have been called out for it by other fans at the Emirates.

And should be, IMO.
There are surely more constructive ways of protesting.

Twittersphere......i know the article doesn't actually say what was said.

It doesn't matter because I don't believe it was said anyway

Marc did you go to the Palace game? What was the atmosphere like? Or were you at club level again?

I was sitting in club level for the game but there was next to no atmosphere throughout the stadium. Apart from the goal, the loudest the fans were all game was when the ref fell over and when Theo ran straight into his marker after coming on. The towel has well and truly been thrown in on this season.

The fans are too exasperated to even vent their anger, it's just resignation now.

The Theo bit

£140k for that eh

As JR would say for this season, Somebody stop the goddamn match!

I heard about that as well. Pathetic from Theo. But that was my general impression from the feedback. A lot of empty seats and no atmosphere.

From Arseblog. Sums it up really. Even he thinks we need to change manager. This part caught me.

There is likely to be a stark reminder of how poor performance is affecting the club when we play West Brom on Thursday. There were empty seats on Sunday, I suspect there’ll be even more for that game. I know that there are fewer people reading the blog, listening to the podcasts, and everything else. People are switching off.

Have to admit, I stopped tuning in to the podcast and blogs. Le Grove was also sayings there are loads of tickets up for resale each game. It looks like an organized boycott isn't even necessary. People are switching off.

Also from that blog:

Last summer was, in hindsight, a huge mistake. Wenger’s gamble on the fitness or ability to contribute of certain players has cost him badly. Not buying a single outfield player is something I’m positive he’d go back and change if he could.

But I don't agree with him. Wenger has already come out and spoken about the value of promoting from within, protecting the young players, etc. His usual code for shirking the transfer window. I don't think he regrets the summer at all. Rather, I suppose he views himself as desperately unlucky with the injury problems we have faced. Almost as if he's never seen the same, season after season.

We need a new Bergkamp or Ozil moment this summer, nothing else will do. There has to be a statement of intent from somebody at the club. Something that says we are in it and want to win it. Otherwise this all drifts on and with anything fan based (and increasingly fashion based) if you can't keep engaging the punters then you are going to fade out.

Of course that blog mentions what's really likely to engage us in the summer. Trying to get Ozil and Alexis to sign. If all they are promised is more of the same old shit then they'll be off and with no shortage of takers. A couple of fatal holes well below the waterline.

Even if we did sign a big name I wouldn't trust Wenger to get the most out of him performance wise or in mentality and lets be honest we should have a team strong in the all the key areas after spending 150 million since 2013.

And you want Spurs to win the league.



It's fun making stuff up, isn't it?
