No gain without pain!

There is no doubt about it that these last 6 years have been painful
for Arsenal and their supporters.
The move to the Emirates has cost the club in more ways than one. For
the club to progress the move had to happen.
Unfortunately not investing in the team and not wining anything is
sadly causing Arsenal fans to be at each others throats.Which
is just what the media want of course to keep selling their papers.

I do understand and share the frustration and I also sometimes question
whether the right decisions are being made.
What I don't understand is that If Arsene Wenger were to leave as some
fans are calling for, then who is next as manager ?I havn't seen a
tweet or a blog making any suggestion. To my mind he is just the fall
guy at the coal face facing all the flack for what has been the boards
financial decisions which he may or may not have agreed with.

The club is going through a transitional phase and I have every
confidence that we will come through it in time. It won't be a quick
fix in January it will take longer realistically maybe in 2 years time
the club will be back in contention again.
Until then as Arsenal supporters we need to stick together and show
that we have faith in the
club and a manager who has given good service and has not suddenly
become a bad
manager,he can only do what he can with the money he is given. We may
think that we know all there is to know about what goes on behind the
scenes but I can assure you we don't not by a long way.
