    Wonder if it would be possible to lay on extra trains? Or is that a crazy man's idea?

    Arsenal have negotiated a late train service with Virgin for their travelling fans
    The club have also heavily subsidised the cost, making it just £20

    It should be the BBC that pays. But then again, you can't win with those bastards because it would just come out of the license fee.

    This is the sort of game fans should boycott. TV and away travel. The BBC are taking the piss with this one. They'll keep doing it if Monday night FA cup games break viewing records.

    Utd would just sell the empty seats. The atmosphere would suffer but I doubt the TV companies would care, they'd just say the atmosphere was great anyway. Same way as they say shit pubfests are "intriguing". And it would be tougher for the away team having no support at all.

    Better to pick the BBCs top rated programme and boycott that, deliberately watching a competitor channel instead. Or if all football fans refused to pay the license fee they could do fuck all about it.

    arsenal have put on two trains for 20 quid return, or just 10 quid for a single back to london plus extra coaches for 10 quid return.

    Arsenal don't often do much to help the fans, high ticket prices etc, but massively subsidising the travel for us is pretty impressive fair play to them. My ticket is 37 quid and travel is 20 quid. To go and watch Arsenal at united for under 60 quid in todays age is pretty good.


    It would be even better if arsenal remember to turn up
