It's a stupid situation all round really; essentially Wenger has survived, yet

[redgunamo]

He will still leave at some point.

Neither side of the "divide" will be really happy. Those who want Him to stay will be sad that He's gone, while those who want Him gone will be disappointed that they failed to force Him out

:homer:

[Pat Vegas]

Doesn't seem good imo

[Mo Britain less Europe]

would love it if he won the double this season and then announced he was moving upstairs at the end of next season.

Winning the double could only not be construed as progress by self-serving c**ts such as that DJ twitter ****. And we would have a season (with some decent signingings in the summer) to prepare the next man.

That's not stupid is it? What's stupid is to do a Newcastle or Valencia and keep sacking managers and spending money on compensation.

[Mo Britain less Europe]

other probably has little more than a season left with us. I am happy to believe they did it from the right motives.

[redgunamo]

Anyway, we have two billionaire owners and the third highest gate monies in Europe; cash is not difficult.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Look forward to him leaving now though I trust and expect the club to manage the affair in a very professional and respectful manner. This silly banner unfurling at matches is no help to anyone.

Let’s see what a new manager can bring. Change in the Premier League is happening, exciting.

We’re not.

[redgunamo]

Chips IN!

[Luis Anaconda]

He's a busy man, can't be around all the time and players are bound to talk to each other

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

We won a game, look at us, we got together and sorted it out. Aren’t we the clever boys, beat a below strength lower league side.

Utterly meaningless if they cannot push on with a steady run of victories and progress in at least the FA Cup.

If TJ had one ounce of common sense he would have rolled out the usual interview platitudes and kept all reference to said meeting internal.

the playing field between the top 4 and the rest of the league even more.

We all get the same money off telleh, we get more money off the muggybanner brigade

[Rich]

will be lessened further next season because of the deal for away tickets.

[7evens]

He's been our greatest ever manager. The thought of a Thatcher style exit would be wholly unedifying, given what he's done for this club.

invest any of his own money in it and another who has no influence and claims he wants more investment in. Untested of course.

[redgunamo]

could be that our financial situation is as secure as it could be.

[Mo Britain less Europe]

years had been tooted up I suspect we should have nearly 200 million to spend, and yet it's now at 75 million including new wages.

[redgunamo]

However, in the past, haven't we always agreed it's better not to show our hand, financially, especially with regards to transfer budgets? Maybe that's what's going on here. Or maybe it's the new chap's warchest that Wenger has suggested He will be leaving behind?

[Mo Britain less Europe]

complain about signings. Which as you sort of say can be counterproductive. We don't spend much but everyone knows what we could afford to spend if we did!
