I am probably sticking my foot in my mouth here but I don't think it is good that the news section should such a harsh article on it's front page. It is the News section not an editorial section of Arsenal-Mania. And clearly that article doesn't represent the majority of the users on this site.

"Goodbye Ashley Cole", that headline said to me and all others (i've spoken to) the guy's been sold. And while this is a website for fans to express there views, this site and in general there's been an anti-Ashley sentiment running wild, i would firmly like Ashley to stay and there's others who feel the same way.Exiled In Newcastle said:
But yes my grievance wasn't so much with the piece, but more the headline.

The headline was fully appropriate if you read the article.
Anti-Ashley sentiment isn't 'running wild', it's just the vast majority of Arsenal fans hate the little tosser. To be honest I've not spoken to anyone at Barnet or Members Day or Den's Testimonial who wanted him to stay.
As for 'putting it behind us' - are you having a laugh? He's continually shat on the club for over a year now and expected fans to back him still.
He is exactly what is bad with football and one of the main reasons why Arsène avoids buying English players.

I personally wouldn't care, just as I did not care when Cole met with chelsea in first place. They are people, and they have every right to look at their different alternatives.
However, every time Henry was asked about his future he would always be respectful towards the club, and in various ocassions he came out and said how fantastic Arsenal fans were.
Cole has never taken the initiative to go and talk to a Newspaper like Henry did in order to keep informed his fans of the situation.
Cole is a great player, and I don't want him out, but I want him to clear things up, to talk to the fans, and to grace the Arsenal shirt.
I still hope cole stays.....He is the best LB in the world. I can't say who is guilty or not as I don't know what actually happened but cole shouldn't have talk to chelsea secretly....As concerning Henry being in talks with Barca at that time well I would probably have been disgusted at first as I was when vieira left. But thinking of it calmly the players have their own rights and decisions to make. At least Barca were linked with Henry and not doingcthe deal secretly (which is illegal for some good reasons). But still hope Cole doesn't go as even with him we have big problems in defence.

I get a feeling that everybody thinks that the board is totally not to blame for all this. Remember this is the same board that has done some fishy things in the past. We are probably not better then any other board when it comes to dodgy business. Remeber the signing of Flamini and Cesc, Adebayour went on strike to join us we could have had a hand in that and all this Beveren business.They are greyzones but we profit oin them nontheless

Yeahbee - cobblers mate.
With Flamini and Cesc we followed the rules to the absolute letter. The other clubs may not have been happy but there were no rules (of any kind) broken.
Adebayor didn't 'go on strike to join us'.
Beveren - absolutely no case to answer. Again we followed the rules to the letter and the FA (and FIFA) have confirmed there was no wrong doing.
The board IS totally blameless in this. Ash wanted 60k. Board said yes. Then Cole's agent wanted US to pay HIM £5ka week on top.

Exactly right, It is not Ashleys fault, although he should have stamped down on his agents greed. He was just mislead, and regreats everything, although relations between him and the board broke down, and his agent lied and ash not being the smartest couldn't see it.

Totally Agree....
Ashley Cole was still a good asset to us when he was at Arsenal...I reckon majority of gooners are just jealous cos he went to Chelsea out of any team...

Glad to hear you say you like it...as I am the one who sings it! Poor Ashley Cole....he don't really deserve as much as he is taking. He is constantly getting booed at every match now, my dream is to hear all fans singing 'Ashle Cole...Is a Chelsea batty boy' though still!
