Danny Fiszman believes peace is breaking out inside the Arsenal boardroom.
Alisher Usmanov's company, Red and White Holdings, are represented at Arsenal by Farhad Moshiri and Fiszman said: "I introduced Ivan Gazidis, our new chief executive, to Farhad last week when he was over for the game.
"We were discussing what was going on in football, and Moshiri actually stated he thought our model of self sustainability was absolutely right and would give us a lot of strength and position for the future.
"So that doesn't square with the so called Red and White pumping in of tons of money. I think those days are past.
"We've always believed in self sustainability and that's something we will continue to work within. We pay our own bills, we don't expect outside financing, we don't think that's the way of the future."
