That feel when you realise just how much of a twat the owner of your football club is. Our brilliant manager is being choked back from a budget that can actually improve the squad and get us some decent players, and the owner has a
hunting channel
. That should do wonders for Arsenal's already high morale...
I am going to be nooby here - what do you mean by a hunting channel?
It's a TV channel in the UK that Kroenke launched, where they hunt lions and elephants. And boast about it. It's come out in the newspapers really recently; I saw it in the Metro on the way to work today, and the broadsheets have shown it as well.

Do you still think Arsene Wenger is the best manager for the team? I don't really follow fooball that much, but he has always seemed a decent manager.

Well, he did really good back in the day. I was still a kid when Dennis Bergkamp and Thierry Henry were around, and they were beautiful to watch. Things went downhill a lot but we got cut back by the funding of the Emirates Stadium, and now I think that Wenger's doing his best and working with a tight budget because Kroenke won't spend his money. We even have another shareholder, Alisher Usmanov, who offered £1 billion to buy out Kroenke's £500 million shares, but he wasn't selling. It's sad really; Usmanov wants Wenger to stay and I do too. There's probably no other manager who could work that well with what he has; a strangled budget and a demoralised if not outright disinterested fanbase and squad.

I almost gave up on Arsenal a lot because the players seem to be running up their own arses. And it seems that the pay-to-win culture has seeped into sport in general years ago, which is actually tragic in my opinion.
Aren't a lot of the big club players like that, not just Arsenel?
