Wenger IN or OUT? If Arsenal fans can't decide what they want, how can they expect the board to?


A selection of Gunners supporters staged a protest in the 12th and 78th minutes of the win over Norwich City, while others chose to get behind their under-fire manager

'Time for Change' was the pre-match theme at Emirates Stadium as Arsenal took on Norwich City in a stale-looking encounter on paper. The Gunners still have something to play for in their final two league games of the season, but not the trophy they sought after when the season begun in August 2015. 

Murmurings of discontent became apparent days before the match against Norwich kicked off as fan groups including 'RedAction' and the 'Black Scarf Movement' joined together in a protest favouring 'change' – whether it be the manager or in the boardroom. As 12 minutes hit the clock in north London, tricklets of fans in their hundreds proudly stood up and showed their placards in the direction of manager Arsene Wenger.

Those supporters were immediately drowned out by thousands of Arsenal fans who began to chant 'we love you Arsenal' and more surprisingly 'there's only one Arsene Wenger'. The clear divide between the manager and the fanbase was emphasised in his pre-match press conference when he described those planning to protest as "only a few people with an agenda". And perhaps he was right.
