VOICE OVER VISION

The new Arsenal advertising campaign celebrating 125 years of our club is a nicely composed ode to the founders back in Woolwich. Part two is released today. What spoils it for me is that the voice over is not supplied by a Londoner with sufficient gravitas to conjure up those bygone days but by Arsene Wenger. No, it’s not a bout a French accent it’s that the powers that be feel that Wenger is so inextricably linked with the club that I bet they didn’t even consider anyone else. This may seem a small thing but it just adds to the unsackability of the man. Wenger is the current Manager, fair enough, but he does not represent all things Arsenal.
