    Thing is, many people at the ground still have too much respect for The Mad King to wish to slay him like that. We might actually have to wait for him to die.
    Well, it appears that Ivan and co tried to catalyse the change that he promised but was rebuked at every turn by Wenger. Shows who is really the boss.

    I think when he spoke of the supporters he meant that Arsene's position would be in jeopardy if people stopped buying tickets.

    Well, I've already decided that I might give Doncaster a swerve in the Rumbelows. That'll show 'em.

    ST holders don't want to give them up though, as you know. There's always hope that they might be useful again one day.

    Right. It's what sons are for.

    They could at least stop buying food and drink in the ground. That'll learn 'em.

    I rather thought he meant the fans in China, but they all paid up in full and upfront, didn't they

    Anything is possible. we could win our next 5* or lose 3 of our next 5 and pick up only 1 win.




    * The odds on that are slimmer than the other options imo
