there
is no doubting that Arsene has helped to provide us with some incredible footballing moments
in the formative years
of his managerial
career at Arsenal, but that certainly doesn't and shouldn't mean that he has earned the right to decide when and how he should leave this club... there have
been numerous managers at each
of the biggest clubs
in Europe throughout the last decade who have waged far more
successful campaigns than ours yet somehow and someway each
were given their walking papers because they failed to meet the standards laid out by the hierarchy
of their respective clubs...
of course that doesn't mean that clubs should simply follow the lead
of others, especially if clubs
of note have become too reactionary when it comes to issues
of termination, for whatever reasons, but there should
be some logical discourse when it comes to the setting
of parameters for a changing
of the guard...
in the case
of Arsenal, this sort
of discourse
was largely stifled when the higher - ups devised their sinister plan on the eve
of our move to the Emirates... by giving Wenger a free pass due to supposed financial constraints he, unwittingly or not, set the bar too low... it reminds me
of a landlord who says he will only rent to «professional people» to maintain a certain standard then does a complete about face when the market
is lean and vacancies
are up... for those who rented under the original mandate they
of course feel cheated but there
is little they can do, except move on, especially if the landlord clearly cares more about profitability than keeping their word... unfortunately for the lifelong fans
of a football club it
's not so easy to switch allegiances and frankly why should they,
in most cases we have
been around far longer than them... so how does one deal with such an untenable situation... do you simply shut - up and hope for the best, do you place the best interests
of those with only self - serving agendas above the collective and pray that karma eventually catches up with them, do you run away with your tail between your legs and only return when things have ultimately changed, do you keep trying to find silver linings to justify your very existence, do you lower your expectations by convincing yourself it could
be worse or do you stand up for what you believe
in by holding people accountable for their actions, especially when every fiber
of your
being tells you that something
is rotten
