Is Gazidis back from holiday yet?

[draiocht fianna]

Two days ago RvP and then Piers Morgan attacked Gazidis for being on holiday.

The club through communications director Mark Gonella denied he is on holiday.

Yet we have heard nothing from Gazidis about the three major events that have taken place since.

1) the RvP statement
2) the R&W letter
3) the cancellation of the much vaunted Nigeria tour

Did Gonella lie? If not where is Gazidis and why is he not seen to be acting?

This is not primarily about whether he has chosen to take time off, to which he is entitled just like anyone else, at an inopportune moment. This is about whether the club even lie to us about relatively straight forward things like the holiday plans of senior employees.

I doubt I'm the only one who is consistently frustrated by the lack of transparency and information from the club. The Kroenke loan was a real shocker to hear about from a third party, but if they are blatantly lying something is seriously wrong.

Thoughts?

The board treat the supporters with contempt.

Reading Hill Woods comments last season showed how totally out of touch he was with the supporters, and Kroenke is just a businessman who is only interested in making a profit, without having to invest any of his own money.

These parasites seem to forget that without the supporters there would not be a football club.

Probably at home waxing his head and letting more contracts run down.

I'm sorry Ricky, wherever he is, but I now have nightmares of his ambitious and praiseworthy posts in reference to Gazidis when the man first arrived.

If not where is Gazidis and why is he not seen to be acting?

The main topics on arsenal.com right now is the Arsenal ladies' game against Chelsea and a ****ing Arsenal refridgerator.

The current board's demise is inevitable, its just a question of when it all begins.

Lets hope this is the beginning of the end.

Where did he go? Spain? L.A.? Grimsby?

Nobody knows. Possibly the clubs finances don't stretch to a postcard allowance.

I suppose we will just have to take Mark Gonella's word for it and assume the van Persie camp just fabricated the story. After all Arsenal would never lie to us.

I don't know why, but that is really funny.

What does Gazidis actually do?

Helps sell players to the club he supported as a child - Manchester City. h34r

 

[dave_rwr]

How could anyone here possibly know the answer to this?

No idea, but what I've gathered from reading this board, he spends most of his time fisting Arsenal fans while laughing at their displeasure.

Thought someone might have insight into what the responsibilities of someone in general in his position at a football club are...

Haha, sorry, I wasn't responding to your question, I was asking how anyone could reliably know if Gazidis is back from holiday or not.

But as far as your question is concerned - I believe Gazidis handles the majority of transfer/contract dealings, as well as commercial opportunities.

 

[Yaya]

Maybe he's referring to the thread title.

General management of the club ie. Finances, the direction of the club in general, PR, legal stuff and so on.
