Dein was vice-chairman of Arsenal between 1983 and 2007. He was appointed when he bought a 16.6% share of the club for £292,000 (he later sold a significant proportion to co-director Danny Fiszman) At the time of Dein’s purchase of the shares in Arsenal in 1983, Peter Hill Wood, Arsenal’s chairman, described Dein as “crazy” to invest his money in the club, stating that “to all intents and purposes it’s dead money”.[2] Dein built up his shares until he owned 42% of the club in 1991. During his time at the club, he was responsible for football matters taking an active role in the transfer of players and contract negotiations where he was able to use his extensive network of football contacts. Dein was behind the appointment of the then little known Arsène Wenger to the manager’s job in 1996; under Wenger, Arsenal have won the Premier League three times and the FA Cup six times, and Dein strongly backed him and his transfer wishes throughout.[3]

Dein was also influential in the transformation of Highbury into an all-seater stadium. Following the Hillsborough disaster a report by Lord Justice Taylor called on all Premier League clubs to introduce all-seater stadiums. Dein was behind the introduction of a bond scheme to finance the redevelopment of Highbury’s North Bank and Clock End terraces into all-seater stands.

Dein also helped obtain Arsenal’s entry into the G-14 group of major European football clubs in 2002, and became President of the G-14 in October 2006.[4] A keen promoter of women’s football, he was also President of Arsenal Ladies Football Club, the most successful English women’s football team, while Arsenal vice-chairman.

Dein was responsible for bringing Arsène Wenger to the club. Following the dismissal of George Graham in February 1995, he tried to convince his fellow-board members to appoint Wenger as manager. They seemed reluctant to bring on board an unknown Frenchman managing in Japan and opted instead for Bruce Rioch. Following the dismissal of Rioch a year later, Dein again suggested that Wenger should be appointed as manager. His efforts proved successful the second time round and Wenger was appointed manager of Arsenal in October 1996. It is generally agreed that without Dein, Wenger would never have been appointed manager.[5][6]

Dein’s success in recruiting Wenger as manager in September 1996 is enough to ensure his legacy in the history of Arsenal. Together they spent the next decade transforming the club and helping it join the elite clubs of European football. Indeed, their relationship in running the club was so close and successful that they have been described by a prominent broadcaster Eho as being like “Lennon and McCartney”.

Dein believed that English football was falling behind other European leagues and was not embracing a forward-looking plan to improve. He saw Wenger as the man to help push Arsenal forward embracing new methods to achieve this. Dein also believed that Wenger would change Arsenal’s style of play which was seen as dogmatic and one-dimensional to one based on technique and speed more attuned with the approach adopted by teams from the continent.[7]

Dein was instrumental in convincing some of the world’s biggest talents to join the club. In September 1991, he helped Arsenal sign Ian Wright from Crystal Palace for £2.5 million. In his autobiography published in October 2016, Ian Wright states that, “He [David Dein] was always very close to the players, he know us all and was always concerned with how we were, how things were going for us, away from the club and within it. He was like a father figure to us, and everybody loved him.” In June 1995, Dein flew to Milan “and returned with the signature of, for the first time in Arsenal’s history, a true international superstar: Dutch international Dennis Bergkamp”, bought for £7.5 million from Internazionale. Over the following years, Dein was also responsible for recruiting players such as Patrick Vieira, Emmanuel Petit, Marc Overmars, Thierry Henry, Davor Šuker, Robert Pirès, Sol Campbell, Gilberto Silva, Gaël Clichy, Kolo Touré, Cesc Fàbregas and Robin van Persie[citation needed]. All were to contribute heavily to the success of Arsenal[vague].

On 18 April 2007, it was revealed by Arsenal that he had left the club with immediate effect after “irreconcilable differences” between himself and the rest of the board. It is thought that he was in favour of a possible takeover of Arsenal by an external benefactor seeking to invest money into the club. Arsenal had invested heavily in the development of their new stadium which forced the club to take on heavy debts which meant the club was in need of new revenue. The other members of the board were said to have signed a contractual agreement that they would not sell their shares for a year, and they jointly expressed their intention to retain their shares in the longer term.[8] Dein was replaced as G-14 chairman by Olympique Lyonnais chairman Jean-Michel Aulas the following month.[9]

In August 2007, David Dein sold his 9,072 shares (14.58%) in the club for £75 million to Red & White Holdings, an investment vehicle of Russian metal billionaire Alisher Usmanov and his business partner Farhad Moshiri.[10]Dein was appointed as chairman of Red & White, which is the largest shareholder in the club outside of members of the board of directors. In September 2008, he resigned as chairman of Red & White, with The Times suggesting it was to improve relations between Arsenal and Red & White.[11]

LVG won the FA cup na following week akafukuzwa…Di matteo won things na akafukuzwa…ni hayo tu.

North East Radan! is NOT huko Fulham Rd!!

In wenger we trust.
One might think wasee hapa wako na whole tickets zote za next season going by their talk.
Let me ask do men quit on their barrel wives because they cant get pregnant?

@123tokambio …I doubt you consider this good news.

You’re not serious. Kwani ni watu wale wako na tickets pekeyao ndio wanafaa kuongelea Arsenal? There’s a reason why a club is measured by its fan base; not just those who fill up the stadium.
And comparing a manager to a barren woman is laughable. But going by your analogy… Leicester sacked their ‘barren’ woman - Nigel Pearson - and won the EPL. Chelsea have been sacking their women and winning titles, so does Madrid and Barca. Show me a club that has kept their barren manager season in season out just because they are hanging on his past success story… That’s the mentality that is killing Arsenal and will continue to.

Hata kama sio Tuchel, si wangeleta tu manager mwingine. Wenger is past sell by date…

Buda,niliacha kufight for things i have no control over Kama kusema wenger atolewe.
When that time comes well and good meanwhile i remain a die hard of gunners no matter the form.
Let’s see how next season unfolds.

And i respect your decision. But pia kumbuka hata hao seasonal ticket holders hawana control; they can only rant and picket, just like the rest of us. But usisahau Social media plays a big role in pressuring the management. 11 seasons of poor performance is insane!

This is a Fat, good point.

Well how do you know bro?
You are but free to buy bonds and shares.
