    if you're unhappy, you're unhappy. i'd jack in a job after a few months if i saw no hope of doing the work i wanted to. you stick at things that are manageable, even if far from ideal. so things obviously aren't that bad.

    anyway, it's from robson and his sacking from the club still rankles

    Unhappy is probably a strong word. Frustrated maybe.

    Again, it makes no sense for Bould to walk away from this job. This is a huge opportunity for him and even if he doesn't get to do all he wants, he can move on to a bigger role if he bides his time.

    thats bollocks.

    you really think bould's gonna pack it in just because wenger wont let him manage the defence? the man has kids, a mortgage to pay and loves the club, so look at the bigger picture. sometimes you dont agree with management but you shut up to keep your job. its called having common sense. can you imagine the furore if bould packed in after 3 months. he'd be called weak, gutless, a pussy and so on. someone who gave up and jumped ship.

    he's been waiting for this opportunity for years and he's finally got it. he's not an idiot, he knows there are flaws. but he's patient and knows wenger wont be around soon. then he can have his say and have more input.

    Plus, I'm sure he'd want to coach his own team one day and walking out on this job would look bad on his CV. He's at a big club and working under Wenger so it's best he uses his position to his advantage, regardless if he hasn't got as much responsibility right now. Who knows, if Wenger were to quit, he could be in line for the job.
    yep. this idea that people can just pack it in and resign as if its an easy decision is laughable. people have kids, family and themselves to look after, its way too utopian and simplistic to suggest bould should just say fuck you to wenger and hand in a resignation. 3 months into a job? judging by that chris hughton should have packed it in after 2 months at norwich. look where they are now.

    If employees suddenly decided to pack it in because they are unhappy at their respective jobs, best believe they'd be vitually no work force.

    Seems some of you have never been employed a day in your lives. How else can you be spouting such drivel?

    What Wilson said was silly. Unlike Wenger, Bould can't just quit and then find himself coaching at this sort of level in his next job. He's an assistant manager and he hasn't been doing the role for long. He may be able to find work as a youth coach, but he'd probably struggle to find an assistant coach role. This is a huge opportunity for him to step up to the next level. If I had the opporunity to shadow the main boss at my work place and see how he runs the company, I'm not going to quit because he doesn't trust me to make key decisions or run departments yet. That would be stupid.

    Fair point.

    Though Bob does also say that he, himself, stood up to Wenger....and presumably got his spoint accross....

    I don't know what the fuss is about.

    At the end of the day, we're not doing very well at the moment, and anything and everything negative is going to be amped up to the highest level. Especially in this media driven circus we live.

    But it is pretty much universally accepted amongst Gooners, that Stewart Robson is a twonk. And whether of not what he says has any truth, I would be more inclined to listen to Bob Wilson, someone who presumably has a bit more knowledge of what is going on inside the camp....
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    let's face it, bould ain't gonna be no manager. this is the biggest gig he'll get, either here or elsewhere. feel free to quote for use in x amount of years.
