Arsenal Thread 2014/15

[TFC]

What a set off bell ends there fans are. I hope we never boo a club legend no matter how crap they're doing. They also boo nearly all of there ex players when coming agaisnt them.

Said it many times, worst fans in the league. One of the most embarrassing things I've seen at a prem game was when they booed Emannuel Eboue a few years ago, couldn't believe they would decimate the character of one of their own like that, it must have been soul destroying for the lad. They've never really stopped booing since, entitled cunts. Long may the booing continue.

Arsenal football club is the biggest pile of scum outside of Stretford.

Man C, QPR, Leicester, Man U, Leeds… yes it is FFP season again.

'Manchester City claim to have reduced their annual loss to £23m for 2013-14 largely by increasing their income with Sheikh Mansour of Abu Dhabi investing £160m during 2013-14 – much of it spent on facilities that make it excluded from FFP.

But this has also in part been achieved by the formation of a parent company leaving a group of other related companies looking after different issues, including the identikit clubs in New York, Melbourne and Yokohama. This approach of separate companies all owned by the same shareholders charging each other for services is not unknown in business but it raises eyebrows, especially where the sums are large. Man City for example recently charged £10m to other parts of the group – which bolstered its income and ease FFP concerns.

Now this is ok if the activities are charged at market rates. But if not then these are a neat way around FFP. Man C charges the New York company money for services and NY pays up because it is not worried about FFP. Man C income is up, the loss is down, FFP is bypassed.

Of course I don’t have access to the accounts of all these companies so I make no allegation, I just report a concern that has been expressed to me by interested parties.'

It clearly hasn't occurred to the brain-dead gooner twat that inter-company transactions have to be detailed in the accounts. As they were last year.

So his "interested parties" can express all the concerns they like but if they aren't in the accounts, they haven't happened. I really, really hope against hope that West Ham & Southampton can hang on to those CL places as I'd love to see that lot implode and tear themselves apart.

You Can't Buy Class? That's a shame as Arsenal fans need it by the boatload.

Same here. It would be absolute bliss to see Wenger try to explain that. We have to consider the result, though.

Worst-case scenario, fan outrage lead to things changing. What if Alisher Usmanov somehow gets control? Whatever happens, I hope the status quo is maintained. Keep them weak and hopeless. An ambitious owner like Usmanov gets control and we have Chelsea 2.0.

If that happens, the chances of there being a super league in the near future will increase.

Especially if the two Milan's miss out on the CL.

You'd then have a lot of traditional big clubs who have the motive to move away. Maybe not all of them would jump at the chance but there would be some interest from Liverpool, arsenal, mu, Ajax, Celtic, Rangers, inter Milan, ac Milan, etc.

Just a slightly worse case.

But we have FFP these days so he couldn't do that. They've missed the boat.

Are you going to tell Tony Attwood or shall I? ;)

That Untold Arsenal site is bizarre to say the least. They're utterly convinced that the referees have it in for Arsenal and while many of us on here have our own concerns about certain officials, what gets peddled on there goes way beyond that.

Not only that, they're also adamant that their shocking injury record has nothing whatsoever to do with Wenger or their methods and everything to do with opposition players kicking lumps out of them - even when Debuchy got injured against us, although it wasn't as a result of a challenge from a City player we still got the blame because we employed a rotational fouling policy on him which in turn weakened his leg to the point that he was more susceptible to getting injured!

As for any Arsenal fan that dares to criticise Wenger, well that's an almost total no-no even if the criticism is constructive and normally results in said poster being rounded on and tagged with the AAA brush (Anti Arsenal Arsenal)

I work in Gooner land and I am going to enjoy today :-)

I notice Arsenalmania has been down last couple of days. I wonder why?

 

[CityFan94]

I watched Gillette Soccer Saturday this weekend and they spoke for about 10 minutes about tough Stoke away is. All 4 pundits spoke about Arsenal really needing to stand up and be counted and that Wenger would have to adjust his team as it's a bit of a battle.

Wenger then starts Martinez, Bellerin and Cazorla, leaves Szczesny, Koscielny and Welbeck on the bench and Arsenal are 3-0 down at half time.

Surely it's a bit worrying for Arsenal fans that the pundits on Gillette Soccer Saturday got it right and Wenger got it wrong.

I don't agree with the Arsenal fans booing Wenger like that, but it's not a surprise they want him out.

What's really to moan about though ?? Not exactly an awful situation to be in. Top four finishes, fa cup last year, millions on world class players like Sanchez. What are they moaning about. They are spoilt arrogant fans who moan about everything. Can't wait to disappear down the league when wenger leaves. They also have a go at us for spending money, when they moan when they don't.
