The Kroenke Problem

[SuperJackyWilshere]

Out in America somewhere minding his own business not giving a f**k about our club. Unfortunately

If Usmanov sells his share, he'd probably rename us to McDonald's Soccer Club.

The truest thing Peter Hill Wood ever said was, “We don’t need his sort.”

He still ended up taking his dollars though.

You people are overreacting, you can't compete with Pep's greatness or City's storied heritage

He's a problem but he's not the problem

[SuperJackyWilshere]

LOL.

Who gave Wenger the contract?

Some positive news for you guys: Josh Kroenke is touted to take over as Arsenal Chairman after Chips Keswick steps down ultimately.

Josh is to Stan what Donald Jr. is to Trump.

And that's positive news?

To fans expecting the club to challenge for big trophies (rightly, in my opinion), I have news for you: the Kroenkes are going nowhere. We can expect them to be in charge of the club for the foreseeable future, i.e. at least the next 20-30 years.

What this means is that nothing will change for the better. Even if the money dries up - and I see no reason why it would anytime soon - the efforts to make a profit will always come at the expense of footballing success. We're a successful business first, and a successful football club second.

Does this depress you? Do you envisage a better future for Arsenal Football Club? If so, ask yourselves: what will you do about it?

That's not good news.

He said only recently that Arsenal fans need to be realistic with their expectations. That's not the words a supporter wants to hear from people on the board. It amounts to giving up before you even start.

The sooner the better we can get these leaches and their sycophants out of our club, and get people in who want to win things. Getting people who have a genuine love for the club (as we had before) is in all likelihood an unrealistic hope, but we can at least have owners who have ambitions related to footballing success, and not just the value of their financial investments.

Oh joy, a Yank chairman! Josh is only here to build up experience for when he takes over his father's american businesses. I'd rather Lord Harris or Lady Bracewell-Smith take over.

Cant believe this is only 11 pages long compared to Wengers 3000+

This man is a leech - sucking our resources dry while we sit around with our dicks in our hands hoping for some beautiful model to jump start the floppy joy stick.

Kroenke is a problem.

Wenger is the problem

[Mess]

They're bot problem but in different ways.

Bottom line: It's rotten from the field up to the Board level. I guess they don't understand what it means to damage a brand. Arsenal's one has been strong for quite a long time but it's losing it's shine as years of this stagnancy passes by. At some points, we'll struggle to attract coaches, players, sponsors and anyone of high quality. They need to wake the f**k up!

Has this thread just become the most important in GW?
