First up, I have not posted anything on my blog for ages..(mainly due to my frustration with my beloved football club)
I am going to agree with Mr Dein that we are slipping and in the danger of playing in the uefa club. An utter disgrace of a club like Arsenal
Now let me start... ppl are saying man city and chelsea have rich owners..
Rich List Top 10
1 Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan (Man City) £15billion
2 Lakshmi Mittal and family (QPR) £12.5bn
3 Roman Abramovich (Chelsea) £7bn
4 Joe Lewis (Tottenham) £2.5bn
5 Bernie and Slavica Ecclestone (QPR) £2.4bn
6 Stanley Kroenke (Arsenal) £2.245bn
7 Alisher Usmanov (Arsenal) £1.5bn
8= Lord Grantchester & the Moores Family (Everton) £1.2bn
8= Dermot Desmond (Celtic) £1.2bn
10= Lord Ashcroft (Watford) £1.1bn
10= Malcolm Glazer and family (Man Utd) £1.1bn
We have 2 share holders in the top 10. I believe the board is stopping them from taking control and invest money.. What are they thinking??
They were saying they have money in place if Mr Wenger want to spend to buy that special player. (Wenger has since mention that Arshavin is a special player. saying he can open up doors in the final third.. then.. Why are we hanging over 1-5million? (depending on which reports u have been reading)
Flamini and Helb
They left and was never really replace.. We got Nasir in and he is a class act.(lets hope he will stay long enough) Like many Gunner fans, i was really sad when they leave.. mainly becoz of money as they are not really going to be on the 1st team of their new clubs. Flamini start just 9 for milan and Helb just 4. But can you blamed them? if someone come about and tell you that they are going to give you a 50% increment on your salary and you will be working with established professionals. Who would say no?
One thing to note, in the list of the top 20 richest players in the EPL. There isn't a single player for Arsenal.. the closest.. Nicolas Anelka and Ashley Cole.. WTF. (big 4 players paid like a mid table player? i dun know how much they are actually paid)
NEW GROUND.. Emirates Stadium
We have a 60 000 plus stadium, Emirates Stadium. State of the art. Its supposed to help us compete with the other big 4?? Our season tickets are 1 of the most expensive. Then why we operating on sure a tight budget. To put things in perspective,
Man Utd highest gate 75512
Chelsea highest gate 43417
Liverpool highest gate 44382
ARSENAL highest gate 60106
So we have respond with full support and what has the board given us.. nothing for 3 and a half yrs. And it look as if we are moving backward from last season. I am sure if we had kept last yr team and brought in Nasri.. I wouldn't be typing this. Bottom line is we need to move forward and it sometime cost money.. You cannot buy a Roll Royce when you are only willing to pay the price of a ford.(no offense to the car manufacturers)
