    Apparently away fans are much more anti-Wenger, whereas at home the anti-Wenger sentiment is muted at best. He goes through bad spells and the discontent grows, but after a few narrow wins against smaller team (and the odd half decent result like the draw at Chelsea) the discontent disappears and people start talking about success and beating the top teams.

    The sentiment seems to change from match to match, that's not really condusive to change, the reality is if people won't stop going making the atmoshere toxic every match and making it clear they want him gone and there's no way back might be the only way to force his hand, I don't see it happening though.
    Spot on

    There's still Wenger fans all over the place, people that trudge out the usual excuses like officials are to blame or pop up and provide a positive spin on things or play devils advocate. These people don't want Wenger out no matter what they say, because their first instinct is to provide excuses and try to support Wenger. Whilst we have people like that, who just sit on their arse and let the club drift, nothing will change. Get ready for another contract

    Our home record is #decent. I guess it's hard for fans to get that worked up when we're winning games. If we lose to Spurs on the back of losing to City things could get...interesting.
    But then we'll beat some smaller sides and people will be placated.

    I think 2017 is the first time a clear majority want him gone

    I could be wrong but I think there has been a gradually larger and larger anti Wenger sentiment at away games. The chant of “we want Wenger out” is becoming more and more commonplace.

    This will translate itself to home games, especially when we start losing the big games (if we lose to spurs on November 18th it’s going to be ugly, and there will be a bad atmosphere with anything but a win which we know isn’t going to happen)

    A) AFTV gives voice to these people to pride itself on balance, but they are insignificant and although their voices are heard they are in number relatively small.


    B) If someone said to you, you stupid cunt I can’t believe you think that. How compelled are you going to be to change your mind?. Frankly these people are lost causes, there’s about as much point to it as conversing with you. If NQ’s argument is to prod the vast majority into becoming more proactive than I’d agree.

    Losing to spurs will have absolutely no effect. We had 13 home wins in a row so that's the excuse for the extension at the end of the season

    A. I'm not on about AFTV. I'm on about you, Letters, GP and MS.

    B. Yep you certainly are. Tbh the only reason I converse with you is because I enjoy owning your arse on a daily basis and it makes the day go quicker

    If I’ve told you once, I’ve told you twice. This isn’t prison anymore. If you want to own a boy either find a Gimp on the internet or relocate to the Phillipines.

    At the risk of being sentimental you’re the best thing I’ve found on the internet since BBC Pidgin and James Joyce’s filthy letters to his girlfriend

    Are they? By doing what? Throwing their skinny lattes over each other?
