I had genuinely hoped that my first ever blog entry would come on May 9th and be part of a double celebration for both the arrival of the first ever trophy to Arsenal's new stadium and the birthday of my Gooner-loving girlfriend.
This afternoon, the dream ended. Due to a horrific and painful performance by Arsenal FC, I feel the summer can't come soon enough.
At least this week may finally wake some people up to the truth. Big changes are required - throughout the club. This is not an over-reaction to what was a disastrous last few minutes of our game against Wigan.
For me its the final straw. We've allowed ourselves to become complacent. Its no exaggeration to say this is the worst season in terms of quality for years in the English Premier League. To those who say we've exceeded expectations, I say thats pure nonsense. We've not over achieved at all.
Standards have fallen.
I'm angry today - because it's obvious that our club has tried to pull the wool over our eyes since 2004 and then when moving to its new home. It's been a massive con. A PR exercise with Arsène Wenger acting as the mouthpiece. We are a football club not a property company.
If the powers that be can't see we need a top-quality goalkeeper, two new central defenders, a mobile and strong forward then they should take up crown green bowls this summer.
