Sunderland is on general sale, stoke is on general sale in two days. Many games have gone to GS this season, whereas in previous seasons you'd get one or maybe two league games at GS. Ironic isn't it? Because if we stayed at Highbury we might be performing better with the extra cash...
Arsene said it was the recession. He has an eye for these things. You didn't think it was anything to do with our results, did you my friend?
Not true, going on general sale doesn't mean not being able to fill the stadium, every league game will be a sell out this season and they have been since we moved to Emirates. A question, do you think the Highbury stands that are almost 100 years old were maintenance free and would have lasted forever ?
Thing is if we had not built a stadium everyone would have been saying that we need to build a new stadium to compete, look at spurs fans, they all think they need a new stadium to go to the next level. I remember there was talk of us moving to Wembley before the new stadium, could have saved us a lot of money and also made us a lot as it has bigger capacity and we had a huge season ticket waiting list, but no one wanted it. Makes me wonder why spurs haven't considered it, most people would be against the idea, but from a purely financial point of view, there would be no building costs and the extra revenue would more than cover any rent. But I would rather stay where we are, whats done is done and we can't change it, im also glad we have a great stadium that will last a century.
When the going gets tough the plastics don't go. We had exactly the same, although our situation was far worse. IMO Wenger has got to go for you to turn the page. You need a change.
