we have underbid, and gazidis is as guilty as wenger in that department. they agree the bid and then gazidis makes it. (well he did with suarez according to the media) yet he claims he wants to spend big but wengers stopping him.
bullshit, he is as guilty of trying to get cheap options and save money. and whats stopping him when wenger leaves the room adding on more money to the bid? if he went behind wengers back and bought suarez for 50 million? would wenger refuse to play him? no of course not. its cowardly, pathetic and detestable the lengths gazidis is going to, to deflect blame off himself onto wenger
great point, but i guess that's also the problem. you point out that "wenger has won two doubles, another league title and another FA Cup", but maybe his past success is hindering us? it's biding him more time than it should do and tbh it isnt doing us any good. every year we are getting worse.
of course, a lot of this depends on whether we trust the board to bring in the right replacement but even so, at least there will be hope that things will change. also, you pointed out that wenger has been here longer than gazidis so perhaps the latter should bear the front of the protest, but our problems started long before gazidis came so maybe its wenger and not gazidis thats the problem? i mean you cant for one minute believe that ivan would give the speech he did at the beginning of the summer without honestly thinking we were going to alter our ways this year? he is well aware of the animosity towards him and the last thing he would want to do is add fire to the fuel by intentionally underspending.
so something has changed between the time of his speech and now, and without wanting to sound like a broken record, there's only one man the finger seems to point to (once again)..
I have too. I hate it. Hate it. Hate it.
But I just can't walk away.
I sti can't bring myself to despise wenger and commit to fully wanting him gone.
That's what these fuckers play on. Emotional ties, built on years of good times
and bad times and uniting together as fans to get behind the one thing we all have in common.
And that's why we're being ripped apart in-house.
How can I want Wenger out before all these "sorts"?
Fuck, it's all gone potty, but my affection for Arsenal and it's history will forever lean me to support The Arsenal, however much it's class has been stripped away.
That turmoil is why it hurts and frustrates so much.
I don't care if we spend 10mil or 50mil, as long as I believe we are trying to move forward, trying on the pitch and being togther as a board, support, and team.

It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
£40mill is not a cheap option though, is it? There's more to it than that. The pair of them bid £40mill because:
a) They didn't do their homework on the contract or
2) They never wanted the bid to be accepted in the first place because it was designed for show
Option 1 means they are both completely incompetent, or at the very least Wenger trusts an incompetent,
Option B means they have done it again and suckered the fans - all that shit didn't hurt the new kit sales I'll bet.
