Arsenal and the Cowboys

Posting this here as it's not directly related to the Cowboys.

Now, I'm aware that Kroenke owns part of Arsenal, but let's see who Arsenal reminds you of.

Big club with a big stadium.
Known globally
Play in North London
Managed by a dunderhead for a coach
Routinely under delivers
Gets embarrassed by smaller clubs

Who does that remind you of?

Arsenal is up there but Man U is another team that comes to mind also.

Haha, I could see Man U or Everton to a small extent.

It is still early this year but last year Man U was terrible I believe or was it 2 years ago. Sorry I know they were bad just can’t remember. But Arsenal is really bad. No disrespect to any Arsenal fans out there

As a Bournemouth supporter, I have no qualms saying that about Arsenal. Though, I must say I'm a tad shocked to find that Kroenke owns 10% of them according to Wikipedia. Cuz that'd be the PERFECT team for Jerry haha.

Actually, having checked that, Kroenke straight up owns Arsenal. No wonder their rubbish!

Yep. I said this for a minute. They are mirror images of each other and this is why both fanbases have an intense dislike of their respective owners but Arsenal is way more vocal about it. That's why the hashtags #wecaredoyou and #kroenkeout trends on twitter. It's been a frustrating Fall for me.

Yup. The two could not be much more similar

ManU is the far better comp imo.

The Cowboys have won their division 2 out of 3 seasons and lead it again this year.
They are the sports biggest draw every year.
The fan base freaks out because they can't reach former glory and scoffs at EPL participation and top 4 finishes.

Arsenal honestly are irrelevant to all but Arsenal die-hards.

Man Utd = Tampa Bay Buccaneers - same owners.

Yup ever since Kronke became the owner, Arsenal fans have been miserable. Surprisingly he has been a fantastic owner for the LA (not St. Louis) Rams.

Arsenal haven’t been the top London club for around 15 years... in fact they’re not even top dog in north London anymore.
London is very much blue these days
