What would people think if it turns out Wenger has signed a pre-contract to join PSG next summer?

[One Wilf Copping]

Should he go now?

How could he really think long-term about the interests of Arsenal?

How could he even target transfers when he might want the same players for PSG in a year...

It's all the more reason to ask Wenger if he wants to sign a contract extension and find out his plans.

potentially, maybe, hypothetically happen in due course. All in a series of discreet leisurely chats with a glass of sherry and petits fours in the boardroom...

The intention is there and the drinks cabinet is charged.

Pints before a match for example, does that constitute pre-drinks or just pints?

Pre-drinks is if I'm at home before an evening game and have a can or two before the pub. Likewise with beers on train.

I suspect that pre-drinks where limited time is the reason are acceptable, whereas pre-drinks because of budgetary reasons/constraints are less accceptable.

Grampus Eight, wasn't it?

And he would not have done anything wrong as I am sure he would still manage Arsenal to the fullest of his abilities next season.

Why has this come up anyway, have I again missed something?

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Surely we all dranks cans in the house before heading out to the Robey or wherever in days of yore.

Absolutely nothing wrong with a few liveners in the house or on a train in any circumstance.

... and because Wenger has long connections to the PSG owner, supposedly advising Sheikh Hamad on buying rights for tv (they also own Al-Jazeera).

Wenger has admitted in the past that he is friendly with them, but that conversations have never been about PSG.

That's not to say he had not agreed in advance while still in the employ of the Japanese.

Been suggested for years now that he would move there as and when his time with us was over.

The Capello news is news, and indeed the term of contract is odd in the extreme.
