Season Ticket holders away game entitlement

Post by goonerk »

Good day all!

As I’m getting increasingly despondent with the atmosphere at the emirates, I’ve decided to dip my hand in my pocket (again!) and venture to a few away games. Problem is – getting my hands on tickets. Do you know, as a season ticket, if I get priority??

You get priority, yes.... problem is, so do the other 40,000 odd ST holders! :lol:

Therefore, they allocate them according to the number of away games (credits) you have accumulated. Assuming you have zero, you'd have to work yourself up to 5, 10, 15, 20 and even 25 credits if you want tickets for the bigger games.

Best way is to book for the smaller games up North, as these rarely sell out before 0 credits, and go from there.

Yep, over the next few months you will probably be OK for games like Sunderland, Wolves & Burnley (a Tuesday night). You’ll have no chance for London games though for now.

Radford suggest that you start with the crap away games (which are good anyway) and start to build up your credits. the glamourus matches are almost impossible to get tickets for but you should have no trouble this season with burnley, wolves, sunderland, bolton, wigan.

Did you get a ticket for Fulham this month just by sending them a written application though the tickets were only on sale to Platinum,Gold and Existing Travel Club Members ??? :? :?

No this was last season i did this. Managed to get bolton , fulham , Rome CL , villa and sunderland away. I'm assuming some of these were returns or cancellations.
