    Maybe when you leave home you can sneak along without telling your mum?

    Comments like this are so ridiculous because aside from it not being true at all, it shows a lack of understanding about why we're pissed off at the predicament we find ourselves in.

    I'm so bored of reading comments about 'Arsenal fans being spoiled' or that we believe we have a 'divine right to success' because it is a fabrication. The saddest part is, I bet the manager probably thinks the same thing. Which is why he's blamed the fans for our poor season.

    I'm pretty sure we've been through this before. Football owners attempting to destroy your club are part of the rich pageant of a supporter's lot. At least your's isn't demanding you play in lime green and be called the Woolwich Wild Cats or move to a different location (sorry, it was there,I had to use it.) He isn't going to lead you into financial meltdown like most clubs experience at some time

    Kroenke will eventually move on and he is your problem. He's very willing to accept healthy profit without winning which makes attracting a top manager difficult when Wenger eventually retires. If you want to attack something, then getting American ownership out of our sport, that they either don't understand or understand perfectly and don't give a **** about would be a great aim. I'll back you 100% on that and so will most others.

    Arsenal supporters humiliating themselves !, Wenger out hehe, as a Sunderland supporter I find that too gross to contemplate, 3 premier titles and 6 f a cups, champions league every season it must be tough, and that is not good enough, they should swap places with us.

    This is what royally pisses me off about the little teams in the PL. The oft-used phrase 'anyone can beat anyone at this level' only seems to apply when we least need it to.

    What pisses me off in a republican manner, I have no time for royals, is Pullis and his nasty brand of football. He breeds thugs, he looks for ready formed thugs and he uses them to destroy all that is good about the game. Just **** off Pullis and leave our game alone.

    The fact is that many is your fans do act like they have some right to success. I guess it comes with having tasted it.

    As for Wenger, as I've said before he's either stupid, or blindly arrogant not to realise and accept that the game has changed, moved on.

    I'm going for the latter. The deficiencies in your teams of the last few years are blindingly obvious to all but Wenger, it seems.,

    Gonners protested on the 12th minute cos they ain't won the title in 12 years.
    After winning the double in 1971 the gooners won the fa cup in 79 (losing to "little Ipswich" and "little west ham" in 78 and 1980). They lost a Cup Winners Cup final in 1980 (4 days after losing the fa cup final). They won the League cup in 1987 before winning the title in 1989.
    So in 18 yrs you won 1 fa cup and 1 league cup...yet there were no protests about not winning the league title for 12 years.
    in the past 2 years you won 2 fa cups yet 1 year later fans are protesting cos you are only 3rd with a possibility of coming 2nd...and you describe this as a predicament?

    You can call me and my views ridiculous all you want but to the rest of footbal, it looks like gooners are behaving like spoilt brats.

    Its not the view that maybe wenger should go that is spoilt...it is the idea of protesting cos you aint won the league in 12 years.

    I would get protesting about ticket prices but yesterday's protest was embarrassing

    That's a shame... I have loads of time for whatever type you are.



    It's hardly a serious comment, but there you go...

    "It was a fantastic delivery, there were arms and grappling in the box. Wes Morgan got on the back of Marcus Rojo and planted the header into the ground past David de Gea."
