10 months ago today a few hundred of us took a stand against the club. Wenger and the Board hated our protests and for the first time, he was seriously under pressure.

If only more people had joined in - we might have ended this awful f*****g nightmare
The media will undermine and ridicule any effort by the fans of Arsenal
No they won't, the newspaper absolutely love it as it gives them something to write about.
Disagree media were totally against the Arsenal fan protest, most other protests were treated with some respect....not sure about the Independent are Guardian, which most fans read i guess...
How much coverage of the protest did the media show? It was in every report.

Yet another embarrassment under The Old Fraud. Another fucking Wrexham, which will surely ensure that we have a trophyless season. There's no fucking chance we will reach the League Cup final, let alone win it with this shite second team.

Another weakened side with a pubber midfield. I think TOF has it in for me by ruining the few worthwhile games to watch this season with this half-arsing approach for cup games, which usually guarantees the game is never safe and victory is always in question. Not only that, we were lumbered with Robbie Cúnting Savage and the sycophantic Forest fan Darren Fletcher as commentators.

I was surprised that The Old Fraud's meaningless touchline ban already came into force for this game. I suppose he'll see it as a bonus that he gets to 'miss' the next domestic cup tie which he will also treat with contempt.

Predictably, Forest started the game more up for it than our reserves. One of the pubbers pussied out of shooting when the ball came to him in space outside the area. Ospina made a good save to tip it wide. Unfortunately a few minutes later Forest scored from a header, thanks to a stupidly positioned two-man wall playing the scorer onside.

Fortunately for us, a lucky free kick led to Holding hitting the post and Mertestacker scoring from the rebound. It's not a big surprise that even our defenders are better at attacking, given the ridiculous amount of forward (but sideways) playing bias instilled in the club.

It sounded like the 'TOF has won more than you' song made another airing, which just goes to show they will never turn on him en mass. Forest broke twice in as many minutes, Ospina saving one and Forest being rules offside on the other. Welbeck missed a chance at the other end. Then Forest went 2-1 up thanks to some typically amateurish defending, heading the ball right into danger and leaving the space to get the shot away. Fucking idiots.

We started the second half putting Forest under pressure, but we typically couldn't score whilst in the ascendency. Holding gave away a stupid penalty, letting Forest go 3-1 up and surely away and clear. He's had a nightmare.

Forest's fans started shouting out Olé's which added to the humiliation. Their side were even younger than ours. Clearly even their academy is superior than our over-hyped and over-rated pubber academy.

Welbeck scored to make it 3-2 and intensify the agony of the remaining minutes. A marginal penalty was given which was scored to make it 4-2 with a possible double touch as he slipped, which was given as a goal regardless. It capped off a yet another fucking embarrassment under The Old Fraud.

Thank you TOF, for giving away yet another domestic cup with your fucking shite team selection and non-existent coaching, you fucking miserable old cúnt! FUCK OFF!

Desperate team selection. He - Wenger - thinks these players can cope. Well they obviously can't. Maybe at home.....But away and against a team up for it with nothing to lose - they just haven't got it.

The silly c*nt should have left in 2014, for sure in 2017, but his ego wouldn't let him, now he's going to go out under a very dark cloud and I pity whoever has to replace the him since the mess he will leave the club in, and with the 'backing' of an owner who's only concern is his bank balance they will have little chance of competing anywhere above midtable because any money that is available will quickly be used up having to replace nearly the entire squad which has virtually no value (relatively speaking).

Wenger & Kroenke have both killed Arsenal. :censored:

What Wenger cares about more than ANYTHING is getting back into the CL...if he can get back into that..he'll go comfortably & full of swagger into next season...if you don't believe me look at the teams he chooses. He picks his strongest teams for EVERY PL game. He knows he won't win the Europa so his only way back into CL is via 4th. He will keep fielding these weak teams for the cup games and by the end of Feb, beginning of March, he'll be out of everything with the door probably closed on 4th as well.

How is he going to spin that?? The "I'm Arsene Wenger, I don't give up" isn't going to wash then.
