Slight rant but spot on and warranted
@DarrenArsenal1 All very well saying that manager has to go but where we are today is due to so many people who are culpable and not like they wernt warned
- The directors of the club decided for their own benefit that the under capitalized club didn't need money in 2007. We made do.....
- Instead of 10% share dilution,raising £100m we made do.Would have meant shareholders putting money into club if wanted to preserve holding.
- We didn't do it, and we made do, we sold and sold players and replaced with substandard replacements. We made do....
- When the major hump of the stadium seemed to be easing in 2010 and we had spare cash, we didn't spend what we needed, we made do.....
- Every window since we have hoarded cash and haven't spent anything other than minimum. The managers decision to make do......
- The squad, ergo the club had become a lesser option for quality players as they had better options elsewhere. So again we had to make do. ..
- The manager does deserve credit for guiding the club into the cash cow of the CL with such a make do attitude. ...
- All the while huge salaries and windfalls to the executive and directors through share sales have taken place.....
- Total fallacy that this summer has been the summer where club has had money, its had huge available cash last 2 summers......
- ..but make do attitude didn't allow for spend.
- And now we are where we are today. £180m+ in bank. Having huge cash surplus, new Emirates windfall, queensland road money
- ..New TV revs and huge kit deal with Puma agreed.....
- Question is now if the club is a draw for top end players anymore.They have options of big clubs paying market rate before they choose AFC.
- Instead of being forward thinking knowing this was to happen,& doing what needed to be done over the last 2 yrs with the squad we made do.
- & we are where we are today. A team and club that's gone backwards due to no additions....
- By not adding and everyone else doing so,we've stood still and regressed this summer.
- And now what,whatever we do now is reactive not proactive in a summer that should never seen such a strategy.
- A manager and ceo who seem not on same page, a fanbase so angry and appalled not seen since end of Terry Neil.
- Crowd were 100% justified in exploding today. Before everyone chooses to blame the ref,have a look at how many shots we had on target...
- Blame a reaccuring theme at Arsenal,blame ref,blame rich owners,blame transfer market,but real blame lies squarely at this Board & manager.
- Rant over....goodnight
