Arsenal braced for fan backlash

following the announcement of not to expect big money transfers according to the Times and on the BBC gossip page.

This really is a kick in the teeth for the fans who spend their hard earned money on tickets. I only go occassionally so dont include myself in this, but season ticket holders and regular attendees are really being taken for mugs with the over £100m profit being made every year and far less than half being spent on signings.

I have the feeling Silent Stan should be called Stealth Stan for the way he and the board quietly take money out of the club.

We won't lose to Liverpool. As annoyed as I am about our lack of signings, i'd rather not sign anyone than sign 6 midtable players that aren't good enough.

Anyway Wenger is at Celtic Park today

Have you forgotten how we got tonked 8 - 2 by UTD and then after that Wenger went and bought a shed load of dross? (The only one of which that was any good was Arteta ) Forgive me for not sharing your optimism.

Why is he there?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
he's notjust another stupid rumour picked up and passed on by stupid fans - If Mahrez was really going to Arsenal, do you think he'd have played today
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dunno tbh with u.

a foxes voice, Mahrez as a professional footballer will want to play to get sharp for the new season. I remember Samir Nasri playing for us against Liverpool in August 2011 just days before his transfer to Man City was confirmed and to be fair to him he played alright that day. So just because Mahrez played today it doesn't mean anything.

Not aimed at you pp. Its aimed at those who would get excited about Mahrez without any idea of our needs. Its like Wenger collecting another wide to player. You know to improve the service to Giroud. <doH>

We don't even have a right winger good enough to start. No one's including Campbell and Theo

The Arsenal board would get on really well with the labour PLP. No respect or regard for their supportes at all

Mahrez ain't coming, already it's being played down. This is why a lot of times social media is just a load of rumor b0ll0x.

Its not optimism. I want Wenger gone and I want us to sign the right players. Mahrez plus a top striker would be the right players. Signing 6 midtable players like Liverpool would not be of any more use than signing no one.

Arsenal fans would rather choke on their loyalty to the club than let their team play before a half empty stadium.

Club loyalty is a great thing.
Unconditional club loyalty can breed contempt by management for the fans!
