The Arsenal board and manager show they don’t care about the fans once more by KM
Well, well, Arsene you never fail to disappoint do you? In the press conference the Arsenal boss was asked about the ridiculous high prices fans pay to go to football matches (especially Arsenal with the highest ticket prices in the world).
He said: “I see fans as supporters. Somewhere, I think they feel like [when] you are at home and use electricity, you have no choice. They go to the club, they have no choice. It’s a little bit like their faith.”
Really Arsene? No choice? It’s ridiculous. It’s another spit in the face of the poor old Arsenal fan, who pays incredible money to see the Wenger trophy every year. What the Liverpool fans did was really nice, because it’s so true.
Without the fans, Wenger won’t earn his 8 million a year salary. He said that we don’t have such a problem and practically said that we are just a money machine which Arsenal very successfully rides.
“You want everybody there when the game starts. For me, the game is a joy and everyone has to be part of it. You can protest before and after, but during the game, you want everybody to be there”. That statement there is the icing on the cake for me.
I agree fans play a part, but if they all leave it’ll surely be noticed. I remember a few protests against the prices and even against Wenger, but of course anybody that doesn’t like Wenger or our business policy can go to hell as Wenger has give us numerous examples he thinks of such people as a minority, while in fact a lot of people have grown impatient with his incompetence.
Arsene feels the heat so much, he went to play mind games with Leicester, trying to pile pressure on them, but the truth is our next 3 away games are Man United, Spurs and Everton. Everybody sees the truth though, the pressure is on him to deliver and if he fails once more the excuses will be dried up.
It’s time that the highest prices deliver the highest results.
