    That is exactly the point if you are not all doom and gloom. People like Jayram and Hothead are so reactionary, they refuse to give players time to prove themselves or managers time to turn it around and judge everything on a few bad games at the start of the season. Wenger has certainly earned that right and he IS turning the team around. I fully expect he will complete a very good first team by adding a quality striker in January, perhaps Podolski?

    You have to bear in mind that this is the Internet though. Some people get off on being fools (& I am not calling any individual poster that necessarilly).

    But, you get these people at all clubs. I have seen some people calling for old red nose's head over the last 20 years. He's not done too bad has he? Neither has Wenger. If Wenger left, most teams in the World would want him. In fact most teams in the World would love to be in our situation.

    Actually - I think this article has illustrated that it's actually only two or three posters who share that rigid pessimistic view.

    382 respondents LMAO

    As for the question about Wenger taking the club as far as he can, it was 42% yes, 40% no & 18% undecided. Hardly the black & white picture you are so desperate to paint. Also, if you care to look at the last question,
    a clear majority are either optimistic or extremely optimistic about the club's prospects for the next 5 years.

    Even so, 382 respondents hardly represent the fans.

    No it doesn't. A few posters on this thread have already commented on how we're all willing to debate our club and accept different views, the only point that's being raised is the overt pessimism.

    We've already had a decent and amicable conversation on this board which has settled the issue about respect between members, but you keep dragging it up as a smokescreen to try and distract why people are really questioning you.

    The stats for the last question outweigh the one you chose to represent your dark outlook.

    I think we've discussed the moderation of this board to a conclusion, if you have any more unresolved issues about it, you can always PM me.

    The issue in this thread is about the overt pessimism, not a denial of people's views. We're all saying that we accept different views - you just need to accept that not many agree with yours <ok>

    I'll repeat the last question for you and you can check the responses for yourself:

    I see them, but am pointing out that despite the figures being formed from 382 respondents, the answers to the last question make a mockery of your argument.

    Good grief is this still going on?

    2011 is clearly a vintage year a good whine

    It's comments like that which lead to your being attacked. You clearly lost as badly as the Spuds did last night, but won't accept it and instead become dogmatic and entrenched, repeating the same mantra over and over.

    I'd politely ask you to discuss any more issues about moderation via PM.

    The threads are for talking about the topic at hand.

    I hope that's clear ? <ok>

    Why? so that you can try and drag another argument out of it?

    I think the message is loud and clear Jayram - knock it off. I'm closing this thread because of you.
