It's officially getting silly now.

The incessant debate/arguing among Arsenal fans over the future of long-serving boss Arsene Wenger reached new lows in just about every aspect yesterday.

Before, during and after their 2-2 draw at the Emirates with top four rivals Manchester City, supporters were caught protesting, driving around a van emblazoned with #WengerOut sentiments and infighting inside and out of the stadium.

But perhaps worst of all was the surfacing of an instruction list for fans to join the "movement" of dislodging the Frenchman from the Gunners hot seat.

Take a look at what was handed out to fans before the game yesterday:

Yep, this really is what it has come to - welcome to football in 2017 folks.

Even by Gooners' standards, this is special. So we've gone through the letter and analysed it on a point-by-point basis to see just how ridiculous it really is.

1) Join future marches

The first point for a reason: the protests marches have been going on for a few weeks now and swelling the numbers will keep attention on them each week.

Although they probably should've included a reminder for people to bring the most colourful anti-Arsene banner they can get their hands on.

2) Sign the petition

If tweeting #WengerOut 30 times a day wasn't enough, this gives angry fans an opportunity share their discontent on another website - before returning to Twitter again.

Once they reach enough signatures, they'll be able to send to the club - who'll probably just stick it straight in their spam folder.

3) Follow the movement on Twitter

The @NoNewContract account hasn't been active that long but already has over 2,000 followers.

We're sure the Arsenal board is much more likely to take note of them when they're over 3,000 so getting followers is vital. Makes sense...

4) Donate to the cause

The movement is seeking £4,000 to help fund more protests like the #WengerOut van and the plane banner over the Hawthorns.

Given they've already done land and air protests, we imagine the next logical step will have to be a protest on water. Should we expect a #WengerOut boat up the Thames any time soon?

5) Tweet @Arsenal funny #WengerOut tweets

Clearly a key component of their strategy is to wear people down inside the club to get their voices heard to the maximum effect.

Clogging up the Arsenal social media manager's timeline will have the club rattled to its very core, especially when he mentions his extra workload to his line manager.

Ridiculousness rating: 9/10

6) Tweet #NoNewContract #WengerOut to the club sponsors

Fans have long argued that the club have prioritised profits over success in recent years so targeting the Gunners' lucrative sponsors is a key component of the protest plan.

Because if a dishwasher manufacturer gets enough tweets saying #WengerOut and #NoNewContract, they're sure to pull the plug on the deal and force the Frenchman out.

7) Email customer services with #WengerOut

If spamming sponsors' social media wasn't enough, a surefire way to get your voices heard loud and clear is clogging up their customer service emails with a "spurious" complaint ("My tyres are too rubbery!") and ending it with #NoNewContract. Genius.

Ridiculousness rating: 10/10

Just imagine what they'll be like once Wenger announces he's staying...
