The thing that irritated me about was the statement was that it sounded as if they thought fans would be pleased Kroenke is staying. I can't imagine that's the case.
Surely Kroenke must realise that sliding down the league will lose him money. Also, there's only so much he can increase the season ticket prices before fans stop going - who's going to pay increasing sums of money to watch a declining team fail to win anything? There doesn't seem to be a plan there, other than to rip off Arsenal fans as much as possible.
Hopefully the investors from the Middle East will succeed. I'm sure they will get a lot of support from current Arsenal fans!
