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.

Load of bollox not worth going
With more people with that attitude Silver members might be in with a chance

True but you would expect they would give us at least 4000 maybe 5000 especially considering they were allowed most of the Clock End when we beat them in the FA Cup a couple of years back.

Quite right too. Firstly they would embarrass themselves causing a scene by calling out women and children walking down Holloway Road, which get we're doing even with the reduced allocation.
Secondly the 15% rule is disproportionate in the biggest stadia. Just end up giving silly allocations to small clubs for a load of fucking day-trippers to come along. Should be 15% of the first 30k and 5% of anything above that or something similar.
This is payback for us giving them 5000 when they were due 9000 in the FA cup. Thought I might have a chance of a ticket for this one but not a pray now!!
