Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

It's not a headline if they're the ones doing the accusation. ;). Who is accusing Wenger of being a dictator? Bould? It better not be bloody Stuart Robson since he has been saying that on TalkSport, he isn't involved with the club and he is been saying it for years. They could print anything if it's a 3rd party making the accusation.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Alas have we not heard that before Dave.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Wenger is slightly different though.

The board say that there are a lot of funds but does it include wages? Also how much do we offer for wages at the top end, it seems to stop at £100,000 and contract renewals have to come out of that fund as well. It's all smoke and mirrors. Hopefully we'll see some spending in January.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Well looking at my own club in January its seems we are in advanced talks for Daniel Sturridge and Thomas Ince although l wonder why did we let Iince go in the first place still baffles me.

what about quotes from Tim Payton Damien or are you going to ignore those?

---------- Post added at 13:24 ---------- Previous post was at 13:23 ----------

the board have a duty to monitor the salary and refuse going over the set budget. if Wengers hampered chances of signing players because he banged out 50 odd k to Bendtner and co then thats his problem not the boards.

---------- Post added at 13:27 ---------- Previous post was at 13:24 ----------

hes been given soo much freedom its truly unbelievable considering whats come from it. Tim Payton, from the AST has said it could end messy. Wenger is a dictator, thats fact. Hes lost within his own vision which isnt, hasn't and will not work. just because hes brought stability with regards to finishing in the top 4 doesnt buy him the job forever. in business one man will come along and push the business forward. he'll then leave and another will take it further. dont tell me there is no one because there is.

---------- Post added at 13:29 ---------- Previous post was at 13:27 ----------

bull! Wenger has money, its been his choice to not spend bringing in more players and instead hiked the wage budget by handing youth mega deals. you cannnot compare Swansea or West Brom to Arsenal.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

No but those do not strengthen the main thrust of the article about the relationship between Wenger and Steve Bould. Having a valid quote that is unrelated to your point doesn't make the point correct.

The truth is we do not know the exact circumstances around how deals get made. You want to make it out that it's all Wenger because this lets you assign more of the blame to the man and also allows this idea that all we need to do is bring in Guardiola and all will be fine again. It's probably more likely a bit of both. We do know that Dick Law does the contract negations and that Wenger and Gazidis both have a large amount of input upon those agreements.

Wenger is a dictator, that's a fact? Hitler, Mussolini, Franco, Pol Pot and Arsene Wenger. Yes, that's a proportional response. Even those who think he should go have nothing but respect for the man and all he has done for the club but you've really laid into him with no respect at all. He is 'pathetic', 'a fool' and now a dictator. When he does leave you're actually going to find yourself isolated because he will be forever remembered as a legend by the vast majority of Arsenal fans and they won't accept such insults against him.

Well you can't have it both ways. You compare us to Chelsea and Manchester City who have substantially more money but you won't allow a comparison between clubs with less money?

You're right however. You can't compare Swansea or West Brom to Arsenal. We have a lot more money than them. So where should we finish if we take into account income? 4th. *Looks at graph*. We're finishing exactly where we should.....

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

ok fine. what are your views on what these men such as Tim have said?

Its Wengers choice as manager to give the recommendation to hand Bendtner and co a new contract not Law, Ivan or any other senior. It may well be both or all three involved but make no mistake its Wenger whom has the choice to hand them new contracts. So 'x' player gets a new deal, great but whats he offering? isnt it the managers duty to be sure resources are maximized? Not addressing Bendtners playboy attitude etc. letting him wonder heedlessly isnt exactly good management. Go play, express yourself isn't going to work. Just look at Arshavin. Anyway back in the day we had a great spine. those heads wouldnt as a collective unit allow players to toy around. There would be a unity about them and that would be put across to other players.. pull your finger out. Wenger hasnt got that spine no more to fall back on.

So on to Pep, would he give the go ahead to hand players that are taking the pee a new bumper contract? I doubt it very much. he'd be looking to see what 'x' player brings and if it warrants a new contract then fine, if not then they'll be shown the door in favour of 'y' player who'll offer something to our fight.

oh here we go, thats right jump the gun Damien. I do respect the man, what hes achieved has been great but I am in no way going to support this decline. thats just blowing smoke and adding fuel to this problem we have. isolated? ye ok just like various people have now finally come to terms it may well end messy but hope it doesn't just like me. if you look through my posts you'll see Ive said just that a while back.

No I've been addressing efficiency. its you that keeps banging the drum of Chelsea and Citys spend.

well I dont look at it purely on spend. i look at efficiency too. the reason I said you cant compare us to Swansea and West Brom is because of our honours.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Well it's not too different to what I said a few pages back. We want something to change. I want Wenger to build the next great team of this era.

Wenger decides who he wants to keep but no one is too sure on the contract talks. We know Wenger doesn't do them himself. Agents and he himself have said this (said he wasn't directly involved with Walcott). Also 50k isn't that absurd for Bendtner when you consider that the average at a top club is nearing 70k to 100k with top players getting around 200k.

We honestly do not know what Pep would do. He isn't superman though. We have very little to base what he would do on, all that stuff is done by the higher ups at Barcelona and indeed most European clubs. The Director of Football and the President of the club. Also there aren't many examples of him in the transfer market, Barcelona had most of what he needed and he looked to the youth team where he could for new recruits.

You have indeed described him as a Dictator, Pathetic and a fool. Don't post such things and then protest when they're credited to you. Stand by your posts or don't make them. You say you respect him but the tone and language you use are not those of respect. You don't call him you respect a Dictator or pathetic. You describe pretty much everything he does as crap or a joke. It's one thing to say he is no longer equipped to deal with modern football but you respect the man and all he has done, it's another to relentlessly describe him in such brutal terms.

Well let's compare ourselves to Liverpool or Leeds then? Efficiency is entirely subjective and you use it because the actual league positions vs spend or even league positions vs income is actually make a pretty good case for Wenger. If we looked at what he has actually done then it's hard to make the case that he needs to go. If we say 'well actually it's not efficient and he should do much better' then you can say what you want. It's entirely subjective.

I suppose they also think they'll get away with it if they blag a judge about how he was just repeating what he saw/heard.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

You mean Surez?

He has had is punishment and has moved on. Other people should as well. He cant be fault for other peoples actions

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

yup we all do but my reality view of it is it wont happen. ive lost faith in him. hes just way too hellbent trying to prove his vision thats flawed.

50k isnt absurd at a club such as Arsenal agreed. it is however absurd to hand such a vast amount to someone thats just taking the pee. may be its a growing up, maturing thing yet this whole Bendtner case has left me little to look to as a positive. hes gone from taking the pee thinking hes Gods gift to this world to slating this club. much much worse than me slating Wenger. This club is bigger than everyone.

its a different challenge.

protest? I said a while back I hope he turns it around but I just cant see it happening. he is a fool for the clear mistakes hes making. hes pathetic for trying to fool us with some of the crap hes said over the years. hes a dictator because well he is. its his way or no way.

actually no. look at the vast amount of money being wasted and look at the amount useful in terms of wage spend on players offering something. like i said a while back, what if we had the other half performing last year? would we of finished 3rd or higher?

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

His actions cause a chain-reaction along with the idiot Kenny Dalglish defending him & John Terry, Now every idiot fan assumes they too will get away scot free and it's become a weekly thing in the PremierLeague, Something that was not heavily reported on before this guy made an arse of himself.

As for punishment, I run down the street making racist gestures at people, I don't get a few games away from football and still get paid, I get arrested, I likely lose my job and so on.

So that leads to the next thing then. This fan gets away scot free..why? Because it's hard to punish this guy with legal action when two high profile footballers merely received a vacation from the sport.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Terry lost personal sponsor deals Adz. but I do agree these clubs going all out to defend players have opened up a dark place which is filling up with nutters

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

I agree with you. Footballers should be treated like us normal people. If they are guilty of racism they should sacked from the club and be given a criminal record like you or me if it was us.

Footballers get away with MOST things and are treated very different. Just because they play football doesnt mean there punishments should be different.

People that cause issues at grounds like coin throwing, racist chants or violence should be banned and given a criminal record

Arsenal back it too. a standing area that is not all out standing everywhere

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

I could see it at Highbury but at the Emirates, well it's a state of the art stadium, would look silly with a standing area :p:

I like it how it is, If people want to stand and have a standing area (seated but not using the seats) that's fine. I remember why the all seater stadium rule was applied in the first place. I've stood with the supporters that generally stand at Newcastle games and I feel comfortable because of the room causes by the rows of seats, no pushing, shoving or any of that.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

well he might not go to Arsenal but he sure be away in January then you be struggling to score as he only one scoring for you at moment

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Been over why Demba Ba isn't as easy as paying £7.5m If it was he'd have been gone in the summer and you wouldn't have spent £12m on Fletcher.

If someone has over £30 million to commit to the signing of Demba Ba then go for it, as well as getting past his agent's clauses and his knee clauses that are now virtually impossible since he has goal scoring leverage, basically Newcastle insured themselves against his sudden retirement (Knee) something other clubs won't be able to do now that he's proven himself.

We'll be busy in the transfer market I believe come January, if someone does get through the hoops to Demba then we'll simply sign another striker. Oh and hope Demba then goes on to retire the following game. The only team I believe will jump through all of those hoops are Liverpool because they'll happily pay his ridiculous wage demands, agent fee's and give him all the clauses he want's and not protect themselves :D

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

They should have never sold RVP. Glad you did thou, was worth every penny :D

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Huh? Which part? I've said we don't/can't really go over 100k. We were willing to break that for RVP up to £120,000ish. Ba wouldn't be anywhere near 100k.

Although I don't see us going for Ba giving the injury record. Now, Cabaye on the other hand...:D

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

RVP bent them over a ledge though, was basically sell up then or get nothing for him and watch him walk away the following year.

Demba Ba want's double what he earns at present to terminate the clauses in his contract, He currently earns £40,000 a week thus making his demands £80,000 a week and that's from Newcastle.. what do you think he'd want from you lot lol?

As for Cabaye, well if you have £30 odd million to play with, Mike Ashley has a Cabaye.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

we can put a few players on 100k now the new Emirates deal has come through. Ivan even said as well as clearing up the wage bill that we would be competing on the wage front more with the new sponsor deals. not all out competing but a lot closer.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Well it was a gamble really. We were going to lose him on a free so the question was threefold: 1) Would it be disruptive to keep him? 2) What if he got injured or lost form? 3) Would it be better to get the money instead?

In retrospect it was a mistake to sell him. However if he lost form or got injured then it would have been genius to sell him. Look at Nasri, great deal for us there. RVP? Not so much.


That's insane. £80,000? Not going to happen from Arsenal or Newcastle. His form this season doesn't even merit it and then there is that injury record. :erm:

Meh. £12 million or so. Never really great trying to but players from English clubs.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Mike Ashley is as greedy as they come, He might flog you a Shola for £12 million. Almost £11 million pounds more than he's worth! The Sports Direct rip off eh.

From a football point of view Arsenal have to sack Wenger, the board surely cannot allow things to go on as they are.

So in the January sale Arsenal could buy more players, l cannot see that happening, in the Summer Wenger had the oppotunity to buy players but he says ' I am happy with what l have'

I think l will wait to see if Man Utd come in and try buy Walcott, and l think he will leave.

Ivan: RVP and Kagawa didnt go to Utd for higher wages. They were offered more elsewhere. Utd have a decent weapon which is their brand.

this is why ive banged on about 08 when we had so much light on us. our brand was enhanced and the ball was in our court. this is why i get vexed and call Wenger a fool, pathetic, lost, dictator! all we needed was a player or two but Arsene Wenger declined and followed his own way and look where its got us. circle of frustration! before Damien says well Utd are a massive brand end of! yes thats true but does that mean we cant get close? im fighting for our brand to be enhanced! that will bring everything together.

Newcastle 1-2 Man City

Newcastle have pulled one back.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

It should have been 2-2 but sadly not yet

Newcastle 1-3 Man City - Yaya Toure

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

All over now for Newcastle.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Yes, I think 2-2 is unlikely now

Man City haven't been good. Newcastle seem to be off the pace, which is strange for a newcastle team playing at home

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

Yep

At times Newcastle were playing great

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
 

The thing with Newcastle is compared to last season's over achievement this season is looking more like the inconsistent Newcastle of old.
