Is there an AGM that gets more coverage than Arsenal’s? I just don’t understand it.

Anyway, there were a couple of comments from Chairman Sir Chips Keswick that I want to flag up, he said: “I don’t think that my wish or intention to double guess what Arsene Wenger wants to do – as you know, your board backs him 100 per cent. If he has a plan, we back him, if he doesn’t have a plan, we keep quiet,”

“So don’t let’s be in a muddle about who calls the shots about football at the Arsenal Football Club. It is not the chairman, it is not the fans, it is Mr Arsene Wenger.”

Now, that will come as no surprise to any Arsenal fan, neutral or journalist; we’ve always known that Le Professeur runs the club top to bottom, from the starting XI to what air freshener to use in the toilets.

You just get the sense, however, that the club is in for one hell of a shock when Arsene Wenger does eventually depart. Also, for some bizarre reason, I felt that Keswick was attempting to reassure fans by telling us that one man runs the club.
