No. Stand and fight you coward.
The timing of the announcement seems ridiculous.
Doing it the day after all the football podcasts get recorded as well. Ian Macintosh will be seething into his panini album at the lost traffic.
Told 'ya.
Brendan, Brendan, Brendan!

Arsene Wenger to step down ..... in 2020.
The owners probably want fans to actually turn up to games for the rest of the season.
I want him to write that book he's talked about so bad.
Eddie Howe as the replacement, in a typical arsenal way. Simone would be my preferred pick though. No English needed.
My bet's are Enrique and Vieira, two underwhelming appointments for different reasons.
Wenger to Chelsea please.
He hasn't said 'blud' or 'fam', so he clearly puts it on for the fan channel.
Oh shit 'Troopz' (billed as such) is on ITV News.
Wenger to smash Tuchels dreams and go to PSG or take over the France job if Deschamps cocks it up imo.
Dont you think Wenger will just retire?
Definitely not. It seems the board was going to sack him in the summer so he's gone on his own terms. He'll die working in football, he has nothing else in his life. When talk of retirement comes up he talks alot about his Dad who became a shadow of himself once he had nothing to work for and died shortly after.
He should roam the world conning idiots in China and Qatar with 'consultancy' jobs like some upper tier Sven.
Right. That's it. The sport has peaked.
Nuuuuuuuuuurse! Get my cap! It's IMPORTANT
The more football fans I see on the internet the more convinced I become that we really do need a good war to thin the herd.
Can't wait until BRENDA takes them to 2nd then relegates the season after.
All the media tributes are lol as fuck. They've been calling him a useless twat for years.
Michael Cole: #wengerout is trending worldwide.
It was about 10 years too late but he's been a great part of English football.
Here's the beasts view: When Arsène Wenger and Alex Ferguson fought bitterly to be top dog

Great manager. Farewell old seadog.
He's a proper yo-yo dieter isn't he? You see old videos of him at both extremes. It's probably grief.
That's us stuffed 2-0 tomorrow.
I'd be breaking the bank trying to convince Max Allegri like.
He would be a complete dickhead to leave Juventus.
Following Wenger at Arsenal would do to you what Man Utd did to Moyes. You’d be mental to take it on, but the same is true with the England job and it’s always attracting people somehow.
If anyone can replace those sort of players Juventus can. If he went to Arsenal he would need a whole new side with a new mentality, and then he would have to guide them past five domestic rivals who are all better and wealthier than them. What would be the point? He would have stayed at Milan if he wanted to be in that sort of perma-shit position. Unless he gets an offer from the national team, the Spanish giants, Bayern, or 2020 post-MELTDOWN United ('The Deloitte Four', as they probably call themselves) he should just take the re-building job on at Juventus (something which has the added bonus of making whatever emerges 'his' team, rather than one that he mostly inherited).
Jesus when you see it written down. It's Mesut Oezil plus crap (flakes at best), and you're looking at at least three MASSIVE summers before they're bothering the top four again.
I dunno. They're decent enough going forward, it's just most aspects of the defence/defensive-minded midfield that needs work, and even then, some idiot like Elneny is probably a capable enough shitkicker if he isn't expected to do anything else or play alongside Granit Xhaka. A top quality 'keeper and centre-half and they might be halfway decent again. I think most of the 'top' sides outside of the Manchester pair have the potential to chuck in a bad season (or, conversely, an exceptionally good one). Given the rivals (one mentally weak [Spuds], one apparently bereft of direction and sailing precipitously close to the iceberg [Chelsea]) they could easily come out on top in London next season if they play their cards right in the summer.
The CHALLENGE.
Is there anybody in the backroom down with the whole philosophy? Barca could kinda throw whoever at the job and get something out of it because everyone was in on it. Arsenal feels entirely of Arsene's making.
Barcelona could throw anyone at the job and get something out of it because of Leo Messi.
As his star fades, so will the strange power of the binman. It's already happening at the highest level.
Now that I think of it, La Mesia's not churning out the next Xavi or Iniesta either. Or, if they do, they sign for City at 15 and get ruined.
They do all seem like the stereotypical weak minded player. Mkhitaryan really was the perfect signing for them.
All part of Mourinho MIND GAMING Mino Raiola out of the country.
I would rather see them pull a athletic bilbao and just go for local education boys.
Half-castelona.
