No he's not. The man in the suit is retiring…there will be another. From Guardian live blog…
"Some further detail on the fate of Gunnersaurus: it’s not extinction, just hibernation. The costume will return when fans do, but the man who has occupied it since 1993 will not. Jerry Quy, the man behind the mask for more than a quarter of a century, is to retire."

But...but...

It's in The Sun and The Daily Mail. So it must be true.

That doesn't say he's retiring, does it?

I think the 'retiring' is just a cover so Arsenal don't look bad. They made a mistake and they know it. Gunnersaurus will be back!

Meanwhile, at the arse end of the football world, tonight Gloucester City played their first match at their own ground for 13 years, since the great flood of 2007 ruined the place. They won too.

Wags on Twitter have suggested he take over. Might be the only way he gets on the pitch…

In other news, Pompey won in the EFL Trophy. And congratulations to the Cobblers, who put five past the U21 team of the second club in Hampshire.

I think the comedian and Arsenal fan Jack Whitehall might have been the first to suggest it.
