I'm watching the city match until 9, something else on then. I reckon the West Brom first team are watching this with Tashy in Benidorm because these fellas are not breaking sweat. Way too easy for city.

I'm watching Dundee v Falkirk on the box, Dundee scored a cracker and I've got the COLFC v Barnoldswick Town nwcfl cup final on the wireless :D
 
What's with the empty seats at the Emirates?

It is a protest against the board of directors and Arsene Wenger. The only thing they might take notice of is empty seats, so a lot of season ticket holders did not turn up. Some of the Arsenal bloggers have been calling for this, and I guess some listened.

The thing is, if it's mainly season ticket holders will it have an impact as the seat is already paid for?

Obviously if the renewal of season ticket numbers falls then yes, the board might react, but unfortunately I think for those that don't renew they'll be a queue behind to fill those gaps!
 
What else can season ticket holders do though? They have already paid their money. Staying away is the best they can do to show displeasure. It may be an empty gesture but it is something. Unfortunately for them, great for everyone else, I suspect Wenger is going to stay another year. That seems to be the mood music coming out of The Emirates.

Its more about a visible protest, to get in the papers, and to be seen for 90 minutes on Sky. If people had returned their tickets, they could have been sold on.

Empty seats are a good way to protest. Its hard to sell the commercials if the stadium isnt full, and Sky dont like it

Fair play if that's the reason.

Something is going on , Wenger has not said anything or signed and the board has said nothing , power battle going on with a board that is split , its not good and looks like Europa League next year , at least we can win that lol as the champions league is set up for BM, Barca, RM and now Juv who all play in leagues where there is many soft games and most are 1 club leagues so the players are sort of fresh where the Premire league is now 6 or 7 clubs in the hunt and no real soft games with the other clubs or winter breaks like the other leagues , its a lot harder now then before . Pep won everything in spain and Germany but not here , he has good players here as he did at those other clubs but the league is no turn up in a many games and go hard for 25 mins and go 3 up then sit back and take off the top players ...............EYG

It's a wake up call that fans aren't prepared to put up with what they're watching. Sponsorship and football in general don't like seeing empty seats as it damages their product.

We'll done to those fans who are being proactive instead of sitting there and complaining.
