Stuff em! Glasgow voted overwhelmingly to leave the 'English system' a couple of years back didn't they?
Anyway their fans would cause havoc so I doubt the Home Office would allow it.

In my opinion fan expectation should line up with a club's player budget (wages + transfers) and, if run with integrity, a club's player budget should line up with it's revenue.
By that reckoning Arsenal fans are right to expect better than they've had recently. They can't compete financially with United, City and Chelsea but on revenue should be outspending and outperforming Spurs and Liverpool.
Wenger has bought fairly well in recent seasons I'd say in Ozil, Sanchez, Lacazette and Aubameyang but has failed to get the best out of any of them. I wonder to be honest whether he's a manager who needs strong guys to manage the dressing room and without the likes of Adams, Keown, Vieira, Gilberto to administer bollockings he just couldn't get that mental strength from his teams.

Quite possibly. Fergy had Kean to do that didn't he? (I don't think Kean fancied squaring up to Jap Stam though so he had to go.)
However Arsenal fans should heed the warnings provided by Leeds, Liverpool and Man Utd. When a long serving manager who presided over a successful dynasty leaves it's not always sure to be champagne and roses is it? No matter who comes in Wenger will be one tough act to follow. One thing he has left is a strong club built on business acumen and not up to their necks in debt. Not many top mangers can ever say that can they?
As for the timing... good on him! He's chosen the time and not the spoilt fans nor the press and media circus who have hounded him. He's denied them any triumph... they must be quietly seething. I doubt when Arsenal have their slump that That Piers Morgan will be quite so chippy and vociferous either!

Quite interesting where it takes you (although perhaps not surprising)
