The statement we made is woefully insufficient and those that made it should hang their heads in shame but also I don't know enough to say whether that is actually all they're allowed to say (and tbh given that there is a real need not to prejudice the trial legally... maybe? Still.)

I'd expected better from my club man.

Also conflicted about whether to pin the post about his charges or not. I don't want to think about that man every time I come in here, but it's still important news about Arsenal

I too was conflicted about having a post about him. But, I think it's important not to hide away or ignore what he's done. I think pinning the post could be used as a means of drawing attention to his actions and acknowledge that it's not something we accept and is the antithesis of what we and the club stand for. Although, their handling of the situation seems to say otherwise...

I completely understand if you don't pin it, I was just outlining why I feel like pinning it could be positive, on top of it being quite big news.

Our communications director is a woman as well, seriously I know they cannot say anything as there is a legal case going on, but how about acknowledge that they have handled it poorly.
