Thank you for having the principle and moral courage. My apologies if I insinuated you wouldn't 🙏

"Well, it's clear, isn't it?" isn't evidence
Again, what is the evidence?

If we think there's a problem with justice being not met by institutions, we have to address them
Taking things in our hands is not the way moving forward as a civilization

Seeing it happen doesn't mean it's the same
No two cases are alike
Greenwood wasn't even brought to court but he was rightly suspended because of explicit evidence

Like Andrew put it, we lost our moral compass
We can be critical of our club
But also try to understand decisions are not clearly black and white, and unfair to swiftly judge specific individuals on poor moral judgment
It's not so simple

There are laws for us to conduct and abide with in regards to these matters
But I definitely do know journalists and the media knew what NOT do in this whole Partey affair before he was charged
So yeah, there is due process that we need to trust in

Would you blame Wenger when Graham Stack was actually charged with rape in 2004?
We kept him in the books until 2006. He was cleared of those charges in 2005
Partey was charged when he wasn't even an Arsenal player. Again, nuances

For now at least
That's why we have due process

I'm sorry if I came out harshly
Just trying to see all perspectives. Maybe to give the club, an opportunity to voice (and they should) before we lay it out on them
But on the surface, this whole incident leaves a very sour note
But like all things, are deeply nuanced

Because let's be fair, opposition fans don't give to hoots about the victims
It's just more ammunition & opportunity for villifying others and signalling they're are better
Just toxic
Football deserves better

But navigating these matters are extremely difficult
Look at the legal trapwires all of us had to be weary just in having a discussion about this. Try to understand at least.
All the more reason why things have to be more nuanced and avoid blame

Auba and Ozil were not showing any acceptable professional conduct as Arsenal players while at work and in training
Not because they've alleged to have done something off the pitch.
Big difference

Partey wasn't exactly pulling trees as Arsenal player either

But try to see it from Arteta's view
Without any evidence and with Partey claiming innocence to him, surely he has to be loyal & back him as a player & person
When everyone's hounding you, don't you back someone until the evidence is clear?

Thought @arseblog.bsky.social handled it pretty well without resorting to signalling
As Andrew mentioned, I agree we lost our moral compass here. Could've done better
But you're wrong to pile it on Arteta, James

Also, this isn't the first time for Arsenal
Graham Stack was accused of rape and SA but was cleared of all charges
Just listen to his interview what he went all through during his ordeal if it's still up in the internet

James is in close correspondence with Arsenal as a journalist
Does he have the moral courage like he accused Arteta of, when he meets him at next press conference?
Will legality come into play then, James?

But we have absolutely no clue what's going on behind the scenes with all the legal caveats
Why you're piling it on Arteta as if this is all his fault, James?

It's sad for us fans to go through this and seeing this unfortunate situation unfold
However, I do not agree with @gunnerblog.bsky.social on his stance on Arteta & indirectly blaming him
