bannedfromHandV Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 1-2 weeks of Ozil’s salary would probably pay for all 55 annual salaries and they’ll contribute far more than Ozil has or will. If he had anything about him he’d offer to give up a fortnights wage but of course he won’t (cue all the ‘why should he’ responses - he should because he’s taking an obscene wage for doing absolutely nothing right now). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came to pretty much post the above. He shouldn’t have to do it, the owner can afford not to let these people go, it would though be the decent thing to do and would surely give him self satisfaction and pride. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 It would be great if all the non playing staff went on strike on the last few days of the transfer window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colhint Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Disgusting. It's reported he's worth $8.3m dollars. With only 1% interest he could spend $227k a day until the earth no longer exists. or take no more money and no interest spend $35k a day for the next 1000 years.

Genie Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 (edited) It’s not Ozil’s fault tbf to him but it would be nice if the players tried to do something to keep the staff employed. Its absolutely terrible PR for them, it’ll cost them far more in the long term if they follow it through. I’d love new players to turn them down for the way they are behaving.

Genie Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Was on an Arsenal News post on Facebook (no idea how to link directly, one for the rumour pile rather than news/fact). Quote 🗞 Francis Cagigao - the Arsenal scout that discovered Cesc Fabregas and Gabriel Martinelli is reported to be one of the Arsenal staff members to be made redundant. That’s gratitude for ya.

MaVilla Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 This 55 staff being made redundant, whilst offering hundreds of thousands of pounds a week to players in new deals, and being owned by a billionaire. Its nothing short of disgusting, its a scum action tbh, if this kind of thing doesn't stop it wont be long before football starts to lose supporters. I'm shocked soneone (or multiple people) at Arsenal would be so incompetent to not realise how this would look and the probable impact on the clubs reputation. Absolutely. DISGUSTING.

Xela Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Willian signs. 3 year deal at 32 years old. Rumoured to be c£220k per week. Had to cut those 55 jobs to be able to afford a few months of his salary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 massive faux pas that id be surprised if even their own fan base weren't royally pissed off by another example of Kroenke stinking the place out FWIW I really rate willian so no problem with the deal itself, the 2 aren't necessarily related 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but we managed to beat them and they beat Watford so I will not complain about Arsenal next season of being a soulless corporate football club. Well not that much anyway.

Madness to give a 32-year-old that kind of contract, given the job cuts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
