    What City are doing may be bad for football, but they're not the first club to do so. The rot started when the Premiership was formed, and they weren't to blame for that. Moreover, there's a bit of snobbishness about their spending at times, with comments like "money can't buy class" etc. I think it's a uniquely English distaste of so called "noveau riche" types, due to the class system that demands that people "know their place" and don't try to upset the status quo, which is what City are doing.

    I agree with you, apart from the bit I've quoted above.

    Man City is a blight on the game, a vehicle for nasty little arab thieves who have stolen the natural resources of a nation and used it to buy their way into western affairs. Because the west is so shallow and despicably money oriented, these scrubbed up but fundamentally grubby little arabs can keep putting money on the table until the last naysayer agrees to look the other way. Russian gangsters have already laid out the route. The worst offenders though are the pitiful shitbags who run the game. Their lack of self respect is astonishing.

    I suppose our self sustaining model is the way to go, right?

    I don't see how you can come down so hard on City yet criticise our Board for not pumping their own money into the club.

    Because it doesn't have to be about extremes. There can be a middle ground, it's where most teams play in fact. You can do things like make £55mill on transfers out and then spend the £55mill on transfers in.

    When has Wenger ever spent all of the funds available to him? It didn't happen at Highbury and it's the same since moving to the Emirates. Also, if we're talking about spending what we've earned, then the Board can't put their own funds up for transfers and you've been quite critical of Stan and the Board for not doing that.

    The board has pocketed what we've earned FFS! All the years of underinvestment, where has the money gone? The share price at Arsenal hasn't been generated because some bloke came along and stuck half a billion quid into the club. And that still hasn't happened with Kroenke. It's been generated off the back of the fans, as it should be, but none of it has been put back into the club. What's to stop Lady Nina Cocksuck kicking a few quid of the fans' money back into the club? Does she need the whole £100mill in return for her husband's £5.50 plus 2 Tesco vouchers investment? Kroenke's had to stump up, what, £500mill? Those cunts could have said, tell you what Stan we've made a killing here - give us half and kick the other half back. That's not financial doping, that's the directors giving a fuck about the club, having some sense of what represents a fair return on investment and utilising the fan's money in a way the fans would most approve. Or they could have said, Stan, we've only put in a total of 7 quid, so 500mill is a blinding return (what, what), take half of it and pay off the stadium. Nah, the cunts have looted out the lot - FUCKING CUNTS. Defend them all you want, blame Wenger all you want but it's plain as daylight who has really fucked over this club. They're the cunts dragging bags of money out the back door - don't tell me you can't see them!
