Ticket Exchange

Post by Jumpers For Goalposts »

Just had a sneaky peek at arsenal.com - on Ticket Exchange there is a ticket on sale for the West Ham game at £210. :shock: :shock: :shock:

£210 :shock: :shock: :shock: - It's Club Level Block 63 Row 5 Seat 481

F**k me!! That's £2.33 a minute - what do you get for that?? Avram Grant gets rubbed down, soaped up and wanked off for less - and he's an ugly f**ker!!

When I started watching The Arse it cost me about £1.50 to stand on the North Bank.

How did we get from that to £210?

Halfway line, club Level.

I pay 160 a game or so for a ST so ya know it's quite good for a derby.

Ouch! Its annoying how West Ham is Category A.

My ticket is costing me £48, i paid that for Liverpool, watching us against west ham should be considerably less!

I suppose you could say that at least West Ham will have 11 men, unlike Liverpool who just had Gerrard.

I'd pay 210 quid just to be able to stand on the north bank :(

But no, the scousers had to take that away from us

Someone's bought it?! Probably called Tarquin

I paid £70 for last season's 0-0 thriller v West Ham and vowed never to sit in the upper tier again (except I did for v Man U CLSF)

I spent £92 to watch us loose to Chelsea this season off the ticket exchange and that is the most I would pay for a non cup final. I only got it as there was so little on there.

I missed the day when tickets went on sale for city the lower sold out and i refuse to go upper tier, so i thought i'd try my chances on TX and i got one in block 10 row 22 for 34£, fantastic. Never used tx before its just like a normal game using my card right?

I've sat upstairs at Ashburton for two games ... and in the second game, I spent the first half spying on the lower tier for empty seats - found two next to the away fans and haven't sat up there since. £48 to see us turned over by Chelsea and Man Utd was painful... refused to pay that for West Ham and Porto as they're certainly not "Category A" teams.... relegation fodder and the weakest team in the CL, fuck off.
