Last 10 years of arsenal

The "he's linked us to all sorts of US sports club networks which are helping us explore new commercial models" bit.

I'm not defending it, I remain a skeptic of the septic, but they've been quizzed at the AGM over it and it does sound valid that KSE did that. Of course, tooling up our lacklustre commercial department will serve Stan in the long run but, to quote Welsh trubadour Tom Jones, everyone's a winner, baby-ah.

Forgive me but that sounds a little bit bull**** bingo to me. Are we running these new commercial model networks up the flagpole to see how they fly?

To completely dismiss GG as boring is a massive generalisation and a massive error, also not a statement I would expect to hear or read from a real student of our club.

I know, right! I mean it's almost as if he wants us to believe he owns profitable US sports franchises, right?!

My original point was that, even if it is bull****, it's not exactly like he's asset stripping, it's the ticket revenues from one home game.

As if I'd do that, I still consider the man my footballing Dad, I learned almost everything I know about the game watching his team and he gave me the happiest moment of my (I'm contractually obliged to insert arsenal) life.

I quite like "boring" football though, I've always loved a bit of Serie A and remain partial to the continental posession game. GG's teams werent boring, especially the 91/92 team who scored 92 goals that season. I was playing with a common trope and you, of all people, I would expect to know that.

You can still bank **** fans' money, reg.

The love for Wenger brooks no competition nor takes any prisoners, I'm afraid. That's actually the saddest part of the thing, for me.

They can't be that **** then, can they.

What are we now, up to third highest gate monies in Europe? Well ****.
