    Oh, come, gentlemen. Let us not bicker amonst ourselves.

    Anyway, didn't you admit you couldn't be bothered to go and support the team anymore yourself nowadays?

    Fans of 85 professional clubs would give an arm to be as 'boring' as we are. You're not interested in supporting the club, you're interested in the reflected glory that you think a title brings, and until you get one you're going to sulk.

    Well, I gave up my season ticket because I couldn't cope with sitting amongst these fúcking morons any longer, yes. The fact that I happily stood on the North Bank for years and years with never a sniff of success suggests that I didn't share this attitude of entitlement.

    And anyway, chaps in their 50s shouldn't really be going to football matches any more. It's a question of dignity.

    I mostly agree with that but it's really only about supporting the team, ain't it. Having a good old moan does not preclude one supporting the team.

    What the club actually wants though is our money; our goodwill is an optional extra.

    I am not bored of being in the top four. I am only bored when we fall over like a pack of cards, You can't win it every year but we should challenge for it every year and be beaten by a better team rather than by ourselves.

    I've decided that almost every other team you can think of is actually "a better team than ourselves" because they all seem to lack the ability to consistently "fall over like a pack of cards".

    I think Wenger's done it on purpose, unconscious of the consequences.
