As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

I had emailed Thomas Cook a while back but got no reply. They blamed Arsenal for not telling them whether or not they could sell the tickets they had.
Also on the ticket page this is back up with a register for a ballot. So I assume there are some unsold tickets somewhere between Thomas Cook and Arsenal.
The Accessibility Ticket ballot is for disabled supporters only mate
I didn't see that.
I am still confused why Arsenal would leave Thomas Cook with unsold tickets and as the packages are not sold out.

Couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery. Same old shit with Arsenal.
Still looking forward to this trip, despite the score!
It'll still be a great trip. No pressure now so we can concentrate on having a laugh....
Don't know whether anyone else remembers it but we lost 2-4 at home to utd one year in the league cup semi final 1st leg. We still took thousands to old Crawford for the second leg & it remains one of the best memories from away games over the years. For the record we did take the lead but lost 1-2 on the night and 3-6 on aggregate...

Exactly - will be able to focus 100% on the piss-up instead.
Anyway on the plus side if you are going to Munich firstly enjoy the beer. Its 5.2 % but clean with no chemicals so you feel great. Secondly visit the Hoffbrahouse and drink in one of the coolest places to drink beer in the world.
Enjoy the buxom women as there are plenty of them. Enjoy the fact that Bayern are a bloody good football team and could go on to win this and enjoy the fact that we used to have a good team and in History its possible that will happen again under new management.

We were 0-4 down in Highbury in the first leg but got two goals back. 82-83 Season. United also beat us in the FA Cup semi after we lead at halftime.
We are out of the Champions League but I don't think we will get stuffed in Munich. Narrow defeat or a draw, game should be a bit tame.

I remember it Gouldy.
At Highbury there was a massive inflatable milk bottle on the centre circle (milk cup) before KO. We went 4-0 down and I was in the Northbank. Paid £4 ? on the gate.

(btw, are you related to the gay Bobby Gould?)
Ha ha.... I would love to have an ex-gooner in my family tree, especially this happily married father of two.... Alas, but no such luck !

It's taken you almost a week to spot that..... ?
In truth, most of the post-Christmas league games I went to for the first 15 years of being a gooner were completely pointless, given that we were in little danger of relegation and even less chance of actually winning the league. In some of those years there wasn't even the possibility of qualifying for Europe. I still enjoyed them though, so that in itself shouldn't stop anyone going and supporting the team!
