The fans are asked to wait while the shareholders get serviced. That's normal. The customer (or revenue generator) is always wrong and always last. This is how much they love Arsenal. Yes, I'm sure there's a lot of scope to grow Stan's investment in the coming years. He'll do well when he cashes out. I assume he'll do that, not having any connection to the club and knowing fuck all about football. Maybe he'll come to love Arsenal more than money - LOL.
    But he at least has an interest in sports and owns a few teams. You're picking the wrong battle to vent against the evils of corporations as well.

    And you're picking the easy battle by focusing all your fire on Wenger. I'm not trying to change the world, I'm just trying to make sure one guy and one guy alone doesn't get the entire blame for how badly the world is fucked up.

    Anyway, OxJu will probably be playing tonight so we might see something a little different. Like a guide dog getting eaten at half time.

    If people weren't so obsessed about being right or wrong and willing to accept logical counter-arguments, the rest of us could be reading a decent discussion.
    Well said. It beggars belief they keep going on and on when it's patently obvious I'm always right about everything.

    NQ showing us all that egomania is still very much a sought after state of mind rather than a mere fad!

    Scary stuff. We have:

    ...seems to me to the attention is being deflected onto the board.
    And:

    The easy battle is to pick on the faceless typical corporate money men.
    The buck can't even be found, never mind stopped in the right place.

    Do me a favour, I've seen your rants about the board, 2 months ago it was at Wenger now you've switched your attention for some reason. Whilst I agree the board are totally in the wrong, Wenger takes just as much of the blame, he's got no pride in his job which is borderline criminal in itself.

    You might not point all of the finger at the board just most of it and it does come across like Wenger is a bit of a victim in all this.

    It's almost like he has the ability to change his mind. Strange concept, I know.

    It’s not the easy battle. The easy battle is to pick on the faceless typical corporate money men. In this current climate, it’s real easy to pinpoint those shadowy figures in the background that we all picture as the sneaky villain getting away with it. It’s like the creation of Kaiser Soze. But what about the guy that has been sitting in the press conferences, speaking to the fans, the players and selling the dream? Without him, nobody would have swallowed the story but because of Wenger’s iconic status, people don’t want to look at his actions. He’s so coy about everything and he’s no fool or pansy. He’s been selling this 2% away and he’s the link between the Board and fans. He’s been just as deceptive and willing to do their dirty work. He gets paid to, but that’s a man that lacks integrity if that’s the case.
