After latest defeat Beard Liberation Front calls for Michael Rosen to be Manager Emeritus at Arsenal
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has called for urgent action after Arsenal lost to Manchester City 5-0 and remained rooted to the bottom of the Premiership table.
The campaigners say that Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta while quite capable of making a stubble to beard performance enhancing appearance in the technical area, seems to have got into the habit of being clean shaven, and it’s a losing habit.
Particularly after the appointment of Nuno at Spurs Arsenal lack managerial beard power and for that reason the Beard Liberation Front is calling for the appointment of long time Arsenal supporter Michael Rosen as Arsenal Manager Emeritus.
Rosen would not be expected to get involved in day to day management, which can be handled by technical and support staff. However his many years-experience of Arsenal games could be used to provide strategic guidance and most importantly hirsute appreciation and encouragement.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, Michael Rosen is joint Beard of the Year 2020. His Beard Power combined with the breadth of his knowledge of Arsenal can boost morale and confidence in the team so they can at least score a goal.
Concerned at the lack of official response to our call the BLF is running a poll to demonstrate support for Michael Rosen as Manager Emeritus of Arsenal. As usual with BLF poll it is democratic and even handed. Aside from Michael Rosen two well known clean shaven figures feature as well as Ron Knee the veteran Neasden manager who may on occasion by hirsute. The link to vote is below:
