Is a home draw considered a good enough result these days that they might announce Wenger's contract extension?

Surprised DT didn't single handedly deal with them, the hard man he is.
He has tattoos on his hands and neck...pretty sure that makes him officially a hard man.
Only person losing out will be Robbie and his ad revenue from YouTube, and of course us...no hilarity unfortunately.

I was hoping they'd hastily erect a stage in the centre circle so he could sign it in front of all the fans.

Their fans really are an utter joke.
The joke is if this turns out to be their worst season it will still have been significantly better than what I and probably most Spurs fans knew all our lives up until fairly recently

Entitled little cry babies

Still I guess success raises expectations and they were all sold the tale that after a few years of austerity following their move from Highbury they'd be back bigger and better than ever as one of the powerhouses of Europe and it's starting to dawn on them that they bought snake oil when they bought in to that dream

I do wonder how many of their fans would have stuck around like we stuck with our beloved Spurs through mid 90s and early 2000s mind - I've already seen more than one Arsenal fan change club and many talking about striking until Wenger is gone etc

Well seems like the 'attackers' (if you can call them that) didn't prevent any videos going out. Luckily for us :sneaky:

Thing is though, I don't imagine anyone at Arsenal could've foreseen the money coming into both Chelsea and Man City, at the time it was them and Utd duking it out for the title most seasons, take the nuvo riche clubs out of the equation and they'd probably have a couple more titles under their belts by now...fact of the matter is their owners now don't really care that much about trophies, they care about the cash.
You're spot on with the entitled comment...their fans seem to think that have a right, because their tickets cost a bit more than anyone else's, to win the league.
Hate them, I really do.

Now that is just truly pathetic and just about sums them up. Outta curiosity, who do they follow now?
One change to Man Utd during the summer when they signed Ibra, Pogba and the guy from dortmund who's name I won't eveb attempt to spell

The other went back to chelsea (had been chelsea when we were at school but when he added me on fb however many years later he was suddenly an arsenal season ticket holder)

I knew a guy who supported Arsenal, but had supported United until he was about 15. No idea who he supports now.

I also knew someone who supported Newcastle into their mid twenties then switched to United. Bizarrely I also know someone who supported United for years then switched to Spurs.

Even more bizarre...my uncle and his family switched from United to Arsenal a few years back despite actually being from Manchester himself. The reason? He was given Arsenal season tickets.

I knew someone who supported Spurs but then switched to QPR because he was "fed up with the lack of success at Spurs".
