Tickets

Oh, it's still not being televised

Why is it being rescheduled. I thought it was for TV. Weird decision if not.

My brother, Dad and I are flying across the pond for our first ever Arsenal match… against Chelsea. Didn’t think there was a chance in hell of getting tickets with a red membership, and wasnt gonna leave it to chance to find three together scalping. We ended up getting some in clock end from a tour outfit for £1250/a piece. Counted it a decent deal, considering.

Lack of consideration for the fans is crazy

Don't know if this is the legit reason but I'm pretty sure we've known what date the coronation is for a while. Who'd have thunk that Five-O would have a say in the title race.

Tried for the Wolves game, load of rubbish. The club should really looking into selling 'stand-by' tickets. Sell a ticket as normal and if the original person does not turn up then proceed to the seat. If they do then return the money. Simple.

Pisses me off going to the Emirates seeing empty seats when it is impossible to get tickets.

EDIT: Even asking those who have bought a ticket to 'check in' before the game to weed out those not turning up and the ticket touts would help tremendously.

Tried from 8.47am for the Wolves game, got onto the site at 1.07pm . I knew they were sold out not long after 10am but wanted to see how long it took. Have seen loads on twitter saying the same in that it took hours to get in.

Guess we’ll find out on the final day and if there’s rows of empty seats if they were bought by touts or not.

Holy ****. £1200 plus per ticket. There is nothing that would ever make me sell mine to someone for that. I want to be able to sleep at night knowing im not a prick, or part of the problem. I get why some people would want to make a little extra, times are tough, but to be honest if you hold season tickets you can only struggle so much.

The worst thing the club do is lowball the season ticket holders for selling their tickets. I TX'ed the sporting Lisbon game and got £20 per ticket, whilst having to pay the handling fees. It only pushes people in the direction of these ridiculous mark-ups.

I didn't know that about the TX.

This thread about Season Ticket waiting lists is a bit depressing

 

[Synical]

I wonder how many people die waiting

 

[Synical]

I've got a friend who missed the renewal reminder and almost lost his season ticket. Can you imagine?!

I bet London Gooners put their newborns on the list as soon as they conceive

That’s pretty much exactly what I did in 97…

When I realised I couldn’t rely on my rich mate and tickets forever. Got my two with the new stadium in 06.

What would you have done if they turned out to be Sp**s fans?

Haha, I joke. It was my son that got me into Arsenal

For Silver members, once it was established we were having a phenomenal season, you had around 6 min window after the queue opens at a random time that got earlier and earlier all season.

So it doesn’t surprise me that you have a 2 min window for Red tickets that are even more oversubscribed for the potential game of a lifetime.
