Would you pay double to support Arsenal if...

[Fats]

You can feck right off!!!!

In 89 we won the league. It was £5 to get in the north bank, 10p for a cup of tea, 30p for peanuts and a programme was a £1.

Ok it was 23 years ago but it was well in everyones means to watch a top flight match. You didnt have to pay to enable to buy a ticket(membership) and that is one of the biggest rip off's I have ever heard of.

The club is, and has been taking the piss for far too long. I understand the stadium needed to be paid for. So when it is will ticket prices come down?. When we get rid of a bunch of overpaid mercinaries will they come down. No, no fecking way.

This is exploitation of the highest order and the club has cashed in on our emotional needs. Thats why anyone that buys a ticket at the prices they are have the right to boo or shit on the terraces in my opinion.

I love this club but I fecking hate the proper ****s in charge of it and its"business model".

I think you are ignoring what a wonderful deal the Board are giving us fans.

In 1989 you paid a fiver to get in but had to pay an additional 20% to purchase your programme for a quid.

The cheapest ticket now, is £35, so you should be paying £7 for your programme, but the Board have been subsidising it out of their own pockets.

You ungrateful shit!

I've got one of the "cheapest" season tickets (if not the cheapest) it was ~30% more to be in the rafters, and ~40% more to be okay-ish lvl upper tier, neither me or mate would've paid those prices, so double, no thanks. I'm not expecting 7-1 or silverware galore, what I do expect is players to look and act like they give a fuck, give 100% each match. I want to leave the ground after a loss moaning about the ref or bad luck or just meeting a better team rather than my own players lack of effort, the 70 minute subs and that yet again we've sold or only "world class" players

And there were no Balti Pies then either.



Mmmmmh. Balti Pies.

Thought it was interesting that against Blackeye the greatest number of empty seats was in the upper tier and club level, loads of empty boxes as well.

The club put the attendance at 59,643 which is absolute horse shit.

I think they base it on Programme sales.

I think they base it on Programme sales.

Can't believe I bought 34,682 programmes. Talk about taking advantage of the pissed

Mmmmmh. Balti Pies.

I hate to break it to you but the once revered balti pie tailed off at the beginning of the season and has now been replaced by Holland pies, which are fucking nasty curry powdered pieces of rancid shite, I nearly started a separate thread but realised that the bin bag protest was against the new pies rather than Wenger (there were no bin liners on show at the game due to anyone having the pie needing the bag to spit it out into)

But that's insane. The Balti pies were always sold out - if you didn't get in quick, you had to have the crap pies instead.
