just an interesting thought after over 20 years of being an arsenal fan, but over the past 12-18 months, ive found that ive become slightly disillusioned with the club, but more so football in general and as such im starting to lose interest in football has anyone else ever had this feeling about their club or the game? |

For me as an Arsenal fan it's more the feeling of frustration, rather than being disillusioned. It's has been quite clear where we have needed more depth, but last summer we just watched as rather than addressing it, Wenger took a gamble, which he later admitted backfired. I think with the Arshavin signing, he has learnt that we do need to sometimes shell out for experience, than gamble on young players still developing their game. You could see Arsenal were not going to bring home any silverware last season, and it was frustrating...this summer he has the MONEY and opportunity to change that. On an overall level, Football is still the best sport on the planet for me, but the money aspect is spoiling it...purely from a point of view that players USED to wear their clubs shirt with pride, used to love the club, the fans, etc...yet nowadays some chop and change at the sniff of a bigger wage packet. The loyalty that makes previous generations of players, legends, well it's disappearing at an alarming rate. Edited by GoonerPaul, Jul 27 2009, 09:51 AM.

The last 3 seasons I tried so hard to defend Wenger and such, but now I just call it how I see it. But I have never lost interest at all. |

You should try being a City fan Sphincter, I was still interested when we were midtable in Div 2, that's what football and supporting a club is all about... |
