Arsenal AGM

I don't disagree, what I'm saying is the board has chosen to place the entire burden on the fan base while ensuring their own return has been absolute. Was it inconceivable to make an arrangement with Kroenke that saw some of that money come back into the club? Did they really need every last penny for themselves right there and then? It also culled their interest in the club. What's it to them now if the club does well or falls down the table? In fact why are they still here? What's their role? What's their incentive? What do they stand to lose if they do not perform? It seems like they are stuffed shirt just crowding out the good seats. Why? Continuity seems to be the only answer, but why do we need continuity of a failed plan? And it has certainly failed. The intention (allegedly) was to retain our status in the top flight. In spite of Chelsea and City's emergence the plan has rolled on without taking account of these developments. That suggests to me it was never the real plan in the first place. And I agree 100%, there's no way these financial fair play rules are going to change anything. The top people at Arsenal aren't naive enough to think otherwise. So why another bullshit line? I watch what they do and not what they say, and I see them all getting rich while the team struggles against mounting odds. The board has done a very bad job and they've profited handsomely. They should be given zero credit as a result. They rely on the fans 100% but don't have the good grace to let the fans know what their intentions are, beyond some BS matra about "doing things the right way". Do they forget we are a football team and not a branch of M&S? I don't like these people. I don't like them because of what they have done to the club.

I see that you don't totally disagree. Your first suggestion is probably what Dein and few other members wanted, not sure what would have been the trade off. I don't think its has been a entirely failed plan though. I have been watching Arsenal since the mid/late 80's . Arsenal were never a big club then, which is not the case now i think the stadium decision was bold and well executed, but the failure in part has been in not adapting to the changed environments.
