Middle East consortium 'to bid for Arsenal'

[Niall_Quinn]

Club have said "it's all bullshit".

Are they talking about themselves or this supposed takeover?

They say it was actually an 'East Midlands' takeover, looks like it was all a typo.

Love it or leave it? Vietnam war protesters were given the same option by the "patriots" who loved their country blindly (no matter how much brown people got bombed). Nobody has lost a passion for the game. The passion has been removed from the game. Different thing.

Don't compare this to the Vietnam War.

It's not a love it or leave it choice. If the current owners care only pay attention to money, why get there attention that way?

I'm not comparing it to the war, I'm comparing it to the principle. A majority with low standards doesn't mean the minority should abandon theirs. For me, the "football has changed, move on or move out", argument is simply an invitation to change it back.

Move on or move out isn't my argument.

Well it is now.

It's not and still isn't. It relates to a thread I posted earlier.

If this isn't the sort of change we want at the club then will the current owners get the message? You've suggested in the past that Stan is the problem and needs to walk but judging from your reaction today I hope you've thought about where such action could lead. We're in a shitty position and the only way I see the Board and manager paying attention is if the revenue starts to shrink. Calling for a change of ownership will only lead to this sort of situation.

Interesting to see that there are still a fair number of supporters fully behind Kroenke (not necessarily on this messageboard):

If this offer wasn't pretend and made up by the newspapers Kroenke would jump at it anyway. He's only here to keep filling the pot and walk off with it when it's brimming, so some idiot offering him twice his investment would have his hand bitten off. So Stan's not really the problem, he;s just a symptom of the problem. The way the game stands now if it's not him it's some other slime. I say Kroenke needs to walk and I stick by that. And the second he walks I'll start calling for the departure of the new owners(s). I don't believe in the lesser of two evils.

But bottom line. This story effectively reads, consortium wants to buy Arsenal and give the fans everything they want. Players, trophies, cheaper tickets, the old stadium back. It's a joke. Kroenke's here until he gets his pay day and then fatty is in for a feed up. That's our future.
