Fox says sacking Lambert would be like flicking a coin??

You're not talking ordinary football supporters, you're talking Arsenal. Never has a club been so totally re-invented.

Although, even if we fail to score for another five games, at least we'll always have Dafabet.

I love those guys.

You're not talking ordinary football supporters, you're talking Arsenal. Never has a club been so totally re-invented.

Honestly I put up with them up until we beat them opening day at their place. Never have I seen such a bunch of spoilt petulant twats than the aftermath of that game.

It's obviously a load of corporate spin. Fox has been involved in premier league football long enough to know we are an appalling team having another appalling season. I expect he knows Lambert isn't up to the job and should have been sacked ages ago.

Maybe this is why Randy wanted him:  winning isn't everything.

Newspaper in misleading headline shocker

What he actually says is

"So our brand is defined by more than winning.'

I agree, but then again, I can see why Arsenal fans wouldn't have been too enamoured with stuff like this.

When they see that we can attract – even though we haven't won a trophy in seven years – one of the top global brands in the world for the type of money and financial commitment they're making, that makes our fans feel proud.

It's all rather nu-football, it gradually reduces it to the sort of relationship you have with M&S because you like their £10 meal for 2 offers, or Pizza Express because you like their pizzas.

I appreciate that's the way the game is these days, but I still find that sort of disconnect shown there to be pretty depressing.

you're right but then again that's his remit. His job is to bring in the money so that it is available for football side of the business to prosper. It doesn't reflect well on Wenger that despite so much commercial success Arsenal went such a long time without winning a trophy.

Flick that Bloody coin for heavens sake!

[Deano's Mullet]

No one could do any worse ffs

[PaulWinch again]

Flip the fucking coin, because it is beyond repair.

[myf]

Please fox. End the pain

[Le Lapin]

Terrible manager, in my long years as a villa supporter I can't remember as bad a manager. Fox and Lerner need to realise that Lambert isn't going to turn this around. Chelsea are going to rip us a new Swiss Roll.

[Malandro]

fickle bastards, give him a chance

[PaulWinch again]

End this shambles now Lerner.

[bertlambshank]

Flick the coin Mr Fox.

[curlytailavfc]

flick the coin and fox fuck off aswell ya nob

[Steve67]

It's embarrassing how they don't see it. They should have a word with Sir Graham and ask him to come on board to help them see the footballing side of the business.

Lambert simply has to go.

Hopefully Arsenal still have a post they can offer Fox.  I hate the bloke and want him out almost as much as the manager.
