Gloom and dismay

Hello everyone.
Not much going on today in terms of actual news, but the heat, caused by our latest defeat and, more importantly, our failings priot to it, seems to be reaching its picus.
Arsenal Supporters Trust spoke out yesterday and the message is clear: they are not happy with the way things progress. To cut long story short, the main points are as follow: Arsene Wenger, Stan Kroenke, our transfer policy, Arsene Wenger, his contract, a cash pile in the bank. Did I mention Arsene Wenger?
Let's get our majotiry shareholder out of the way first. The report only confirmed what we already knew: Silent Stan isn't remotely interested in how things are run. He is content to hand over the power to the manager, while also giving him his backing. Kroenke just can't be bothered to understand, how football clubs should be handled, he just couldn't care less, it seems. While the club remains profitable, I doubt Kroenke will lift a finger to change something for the better. A sad picture, especially when you look at the likes of Abramovich. He may be a complete arse, but he cares for Chelsea and keeps pumping money, bringing in the best players and managers.
