O2 priority is a good way to get tickets but they always put you in the upper tier

Fuck sitting with the Gods.
I'm a Clock End/North Bank Lower kind of guy. I like being able to
cheer, and being close to the pitch.

Sat in the west stand for the QPR game and got shushed by a guy
for cheering. I was so jarred. Promptly told him to fuck off and
leave me to watch the game. The guy next to me was playing Angry
Birds for the whole first half - In the second half, he didn't bother
coming back.

Don't get people like that at all. Seems to be a chore for so many people at games.
Slightly different but reminded me of this...
Went to a game recently and sat by the corner flag. There was a few blokes behind us who were pretty old and couldn't stand up very well. Obviously whenever something looked like happening the crowd would stand up so we would stand up too otherwise we couldn't see. Literally every time we stood up we would get loads of abuse from these guys behind. Ended up spending a lot of the game in a sort of half standing but crouched position

Old people shouldn't be allowed out in public

Millwall fans doing their bit to improve their reputation in football by running onto the pitch, throwing stuff at the linesmen and players, booing Nikola Zigic for being stamped on when down on the floor and then being took out by a 2-footed, studs up tackle.

Still, a 6-0 away win takes the edge off that.

Yeah I dunno what to say any more. Arsene will be gone soon.
He's coming to the end of his contract. I can't see him being asked
to stay on - otherwise there will be an en masse protest.

I also have my own belief that the club is struggling financially and
the facade is falling off... We're told we have £50-70m in a war chest
and no one to spend it on... I could have outlayed a few great signings
for that amount. Even now, I'd be banging on the door for Leighton Baines,
Yann M'Villa, Huntellar, Sinclair & Montolivio.

First time in 15 years that Spurs will finish above us.
I've told my little bro to expect flying pigs and flaming snowballs shortly
after that.

you arsenal fans need to get a grip srsly

A grip on what exactly?

- We're being lied to on a daily basis by a man who (and this is my own theory)
lost his marbles after the 2006 CL final.
- Wenger seems incapable of sticking out a winning team by changing tactics
and rotating players properly.
- We have a shit CEO who can't stick together a decent transfer package for
players coming into their peak - as such we cannot attract "top top players"
that want to win at Arsenal.
- Our majority owner is hands off and pretty much was sold the controlling stake
in Arsenal to stop Alisher Uzmanov.
- We sit back and take price hikes that have all but alienated local fans.
- We've got a shit-load of "corporate" fans that don't really support the club and
it's evident for all to see when people go to the Emirates.

Arsenal fans know this... We just can't seem to do anything about it except bitch
on blogs.

This is defnitely the case. Anyone saying Wenger should leave is an idiot. The man has made arsenal over perform not under. Cannot believe that anyone would come in and do a better job. Your finances are also second to none thanks to him

[hutyluty]

-We're being lied to on a regular basis on who actually owns the club
-We make a profit of about 4 million quid a year, yet Grayson is told he has to sell before he can buy
-We've got a good manager who is leaving at the end of this year, either pushed or on his way to brighter pastures (and who can blame him)
-25,000 is considered a good crowd
-Our chairman (possible owner) is a fucking nutter
-Everyone in Leeds is wearing Man utd/Liverpool and even Arsenal shirts

not to turn this into a "my club is worse than yours" thing but 5th in the premiership is really not that bad and i think everyone (except maybe man u/ man city) is jealous of your manager (who're you going to replace him with) and the constant stream of great players you seem to bring through!

Everyone has their time in the sun. Wenger operates with impunity.
Name another manager that could go this long without winning a trophy for
a top team?

It's not that I don't want to believe in him any more. But to continue along the
path he has done for ANOTHER year, sorry, but it's ridiculous. We've become a
parody - a laughing stock between the top clubs in the country.

As I said - we (the fans) are being told we have a £50m-70m warchest to buy. It's no good
sitting there collecting interest if we have it.

If we do have it - there are plenty of dependable, good players out there to spend it on.

£15m on OxoChambo was not a wise purchase. £15m on Montolovio would have been a wise
purchase. £15m is especially not a wise purchase when you continue to stick the boy on the
bench or in the reserves when Walcott is having such a shit time. I would be all for it IF Oxo
was being played more regularly - I love the kid and think he will be amazing.

Until yesterday pretty much I was a staunch Wenger supporter - but even I've had
enough.

Oh, I also think there needs to be an overhaul of the back room staff.
