    We need to harness this current spirit of unity and get the backing of fans of all clubs for #KroenkeOut. They’ve already wrecked our club and they very nearly destroyed the league - it’s in everyone’s best interest that they’re removed ASAP.

    I'd love to see that snake gone, but difficult to know what can realistically be done to get him out?

    And what happens next. As Arseblog says this morning, the chances of finding a 'good guy' billionaire owner are pretty slim.

    Does it need Government intervention to stop these power grabs? Is that even remotely feasible? I love the 51% rule but how realistic is it to implement here.

    Honestly, I have no idea who or what comes next for us, but I don't see how KSE can possibly continue after this? Beyond the clandestine talks of a Super League, that they've obviously been having since day one, they clearly had / have no other vision or plan for this club - if this was meant to be their end game, then they've seriously miscalculated.

    I think our billionaire arsehole is the most likely candidate to sell.

    Kroen**** is the only one of them who seems to have no interest in football at all.

    He always wanted the 'brand' to make money off of.

    Now it's been heavily tarnished, and the userbase hates him - it could be enough for him to jump ship.

    Whilst collecting a few billion for the privilege, of course

    The fans need to heavily boycott the club for the time being. Dive the share price down. Send those revenues to zero so every day the deal gets worse for Kroenke. Don't just let him walk away without a reminder of the pain he's brought to every Arsenal fan since his sorry arse parachuted in.

    That's the thing with these bastards. Even when they lose huge, they win.

    so, it looks to me like Woodward and Perez called everyone up at the weekend and told them that the ESL was happening, Man U were in and if they didn't follow they'd be out in the cold

    so they had to issue statements in a hurry saying they were part of it

    that's why they hadn't time to talk to managers and players etc

    it was blackmail and the clubs all went for it (as would everton, burnley and any other po-faced bunch of hypocrits who've been publicly criticising it)

    that's why the Arsenal statement on Sunday was so perfunctory

    I'm not trying to give the Kroenkes an easy ride and tbh if their plan was always to get an ESL so they could not have to compete and just watch the money come in, they might now sell (although again we need to be careful what we wish for because we could have worse)

    but while it's easy to laugh at last night's statement from Arsenal, it reads better than a lot of those from other clubs (especially Levy's I'm pleased to say)

    after all, if they didn't apologise and say they made a mistake we'd be demanding they did just that wouldn't we?

    but it's a shame Arteta and the players weren't as vocal as Klopp, Henderson, Pep, KDB and others

    but Neville can truly eff off, he was part of a club that bullied and cheated its way to titles year after year

    so we've all had a really worrying 2-3 days while this played out, but at least we can know it won't be tried again for a long long time

    It was a pretty good statement, to be fair.

    It's just...I don't believe a word of it. Sure, they're sorry that so many fans basically told them to fuck off and that they would be withdrawing their custom, they care about the money potentially drying up. But that's all.

    And sure, you could say "well, it's not the players' fault, it's not Arteta's fault". And you'd be right. But it's not like the players care about us or the club either. It's all screwed.
