But named "VisitFootballClub Club of the Year" for customer service! Bet they didn't ask for help at the box office when doing their research...

Yeah, but I think you’ll find that figure of 1955 was carefully chosen by our Board as it celebrates the 2nd anniversary of Arsenal winning our seventh League title in 1952–53.hugh jardon wrote:Arsenal have the most expensive top flight season ticket at £1955, the most expensive single match ticket £126 and even the most expensive cheapest season ticket at £985.

The price will soon be £1996, after that it will go up to £2005 where it will remain stagnent for 7+ yearsDB10GOONER wrote:Yeah, but I think you’ll find that figure of 1955 was carefully chosen by our Board as it celebrates the 2nd anniversary of Arsenal winning our seventh League title in 1952–53.hugh jardon wrote:Arsenal have the most expensive top flight season ticket at £1955, the most expensive single match ticket £126 and even the most expensive cheapest season ticket at £985.

Our most expensive ticket for one cat A game is half the price of wigans cheapest season ticket
Still, it's alright. Us lot down here can all afford can't we!
The funny thing is that there are people with the most expensive season tickets , including club level , who don't even go that much! If at all.
Some people do really have more money than sense!!!!

The sooner the ground is rid of all those horrible fans who never buy merchandise or £8 fish and chips at, halftime the better

Ah. I now understand why my ticket cost £1399. It was the last time there was a mass public hang-drawn-and-quartering in the medieval borough of High Bury.
Witty that.

Re: BBC Sport Price Of Football Survey 2012
Obviously our ticket prices are disgraceful but that mouthy twat Whelan needs to wind his neck in. The thought of him rewarding loyalty with cheap tickets is bollocks. If he could he would charge £1000 for a season ticket at Wigan but he can't because Wigan is hardly the most prosperous area of the UK, there are plenty of other top-tier clubs nearby and most importantly nobody wants to pay stupid money to see Gary Caldwell eating mud all game as they ship in 4+ goals yet again.flash gunner wrote:BournemouthRED wrote:Our most expensive ticket for one cat A game is half the price of wigans cheapest season ticket![]()

If it was up to that prick he would charge astronomical prices for 'fans' to go and see Dave Whelan FC play at the Dave Whelan stadium, sitting in the Dave Whelan stand munching on their Dave Whelan brand pie and gravy and drinking Dave Whelan lager at half time with the twat himself driving his DW mobile out onto the pitch to kick off every game.
Re: BBC Sport Price Of Football Survey 2012
The west ham £480 season ticket could only be brought if you have had a ST for 5 years and used the 20% loyalty discount offered in 2009 during the 1st year. Some of the lower league prices are special prices used only once or twice a season so do not reflect the true price.
The Arsenal ST is for 26 matches not 19 so gives unclear information and a false price regarding PL prices.
Looking at the cheapest day out prices Arsenal can be better value than half the PL and Brighton.
Not sure what it really tells us apart from giving great headlines for the media

It's all a question of supply and demand; there is no demand for tickets to see Wigan so they're priced accordingly. I turned up at Barnet last Saturday. 14 quid to stand up and watch not much better than pub team football. Made Arsenal seem reasonable value.

Re: BBC Sport Price Of Football Survey 2012
I was going to make the same point re-the 26 games.... That said, I still think there is an argument to say that Arsenal should reduce the number of cup games - or at least give people the choice. It would bring the price of our cheapest adult ST down to £720 which would at least mean we didn't get such a kicking in the media.stg wrote:The Arsenal ST is for 26 matches not 19 so gives unclear information and a false price regarding PL prices.

TBH I think the 26 game thing is also unfair on Family Enclosure ST holders as no-one really wants to bring their kids to midweek games during term time.
