Will the Arsenal fans return tomorrow night after two wins?

Although we lost 3-0 to Man City in an awful week, we got back to winning ways again with victory in the San Siro and then we destroyed Watford, but are those results going to be good enough for the fans to fill the stadium again tomorrow?

Aaron Ramsey is the latest Arsenal player to remark on the stayaway fans as he said today: “Hopefully there won’t be so many empty seats, hopefully our performances on the pitch will encourage everyone to come back.

“We needed the result in Milan, it was a tough run for us. Sometimes these things just happen. Hopefully we can build on it and go from strength to strength.”

The fact is that this Europa League match is included in season tickets and, according to the Arsenal website a couple of weeks ago, the fixture is totally sold out. It may have a little more interest as we are playing one of the European greats (or like Arsenal, they used to be!) but will there be enough interest for the Arsenal faithful to change their minds about boycotting the stadium?

I doubt it!

  1. If I had my way, no Arsenal fans at all would attend ANY MATCH ,until Wenger is sacked! Simple equation really: the lesser the crowd, the sooner he is sacked. If they did the right thing and sacked him this afternoon, I have no doubt the stadium would be packed full tomorrow. Does anyone doubt me!

    1. As much as I want Wenger replaced, I also want Arsenal win the Europa League and Wenger leaves as a legend

      Arsenal really need our support this time and I believe Wenger would not miss the best opportunity to leave as a legendary manager for Arsenal, once he wins the Europa League

      1. Yours is of course a perfectly legitimate view to hold. One reason I do not share it is because I have craved Wengers sacking ever since 2007-8 season . Any fondness I felt for him then has long ago turned into a deep loathing and resentment at how he has put his personal wishes above the good of the club, by staying when it is clear he is regressing both the squad and the team. So now, I have no good feelings at all towards him and want him thrown out on his ear, preferably today. Also I don’t buy into the false idea that an eleven year long failure is a legend. Not unless Dick Turpin the highwayman was also a legend. And he harmed far fewer people than Wenger. But, hey, it’s a free couintry and you have your opinion and I have mine.

        1. He’ll leave a legend whether you agree or not. After Fergie no other PL manager has as many trophy laden seasons as he’s had. There is no other manager that means as much to the premier league era than Wenger & Fergie, these two defined football as the battlefield during their spell. Every AFC fans best memories are the early Wenger years, football wise. Everyone from that time admits how it was Wenger who brought the league closer in line to what was on offer at the best European sides. He was ahead of Europe in some regard as Arsenal were the quickest team on the planet back then. He won ten trophies I think it is, that’s a one in two average, over a long time. I hope he wins Europa too, not for him …for the club, and any AFC fan acting like they’re above it doesn’t know much at all about Arsenal. By the way, 2007, do ya even know how much that would never have happened in a million years, you sound like a R Madrid fan ..and in 2007 Madrid wanted him. He is a Legend!!!!! And we are by far the greatest team, the world has ever seen, and that is all there is to it.

          1. Break-on-Through,
            Agree completely with you and your passion.
            The man is a LIVING legend for so many of us.
            We have to accept the views of others and I do accept his time is coming to an end. This season has been terrible, but I want him to leave in a blaze of Europa glory!
            If that happens, both sides of the argument should be happy!!!!

      2. I disagree that Wenger will leave if we win the Europa league. He didn’t leave after FA cup wins. He will just use it to drag his tenure and continue screwing us up.
        I do want us to win Europa league because I don’t think he will be sacked by Stan in any case.

    2. @john foxfox
      are you saying, if Wenger is sacked then your desired coach employed ànd
      the woeful performances continued, will you quit coming to stadium to watch arsenal matches or stop supporting arsenal as a club? don’t ask me about Leicester city and Blackburn rover’s; just asking base on your statemen. no personal grunge’s one gunner.

  2. I hope the astadium is full to the rafters but I bet it won’t be.Two wins do not a season make and it’s not like we haven’t had many a false dawn over the last few years.
    I cannot believe we won’t win.Should we be in Fridays draw then the competition starts to get some real meaning and if a QF European match fails to fill the ground then the Board will notice.If Wenger does pull off the impossible and get us to the final whoever we draw en-route you would trust the Board have thousands of empty seats flashing through their minds and not??????.One Man is responsible for the state we are in and he knows it.He will try to pull every trick he can to get to finish his contract next season.He MUST NOT be allowed to continue:

  3. I hope so. I hope its a full house

    Europa League is very important and we need to support the players in this tournament. We need to cheer them on
    Tomorrows match is far from a formality. 0-2 can be overturned so supporting the team to progress is important

    I could care less about Premier League matches as we will not make the top 4 but in a knockout competition anything can happen

  4. Me think a deluded arsene-fan blamed the almost empty stadium on bad timing by the FA and Mr. Admin seconded it………………..

    Maybe FA and UEFA are helping us to get arsene sacked!
    Deludedadmin!

  5. I think it will be a full house. AC Mlian are a massive draw although not the team of old plus the fact we’ll have the first team out and a 2-0 lead. I’m actually looking forward to it, something I’ve not done so much lately.

  6. Hey! Hey! what’s going on? Can’t you people stamp your feet on the ground for once and firmly hold on till the stubborn scorpion that has been selfishly stinging us is truly crushed. Haven’t we been supporting the club all along even fanatically and the entire club: Board & Mgt, Players & Manager never showed appreciation by rising up to delivere? STAY AT HOME, STAY AWAY FROM EMIRATES STADIUM PERIOD! Wenger and 95% average and underperforming players must leave.Check it Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, PSG, Juventus even Man. City of recent have all been changing Boards and managers and they all have been dominating their leagues etc. Don’t you know that Kronke, Gazidis and Wenger knows you people and your emotions, they manipulates it and you of course. They have all hurt us more than enough, let’s escape from their torture once and for all please I pray thee all. One or two winning has cancelled out seasons of horrendous losses Wenger and his mediocres have post. STAY AT HOME IT BRING POSITIVE RESULTS, WENGER AND HIS CAMEOS MUST LEAVE. OOOUCHIII! AM STILL SORELY HURTING I DON’T ABOUT YOU.
