Fixture Changes

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.

Will be intriguing to see how many tickets we sell. you can only get the away point if you actually attend the game and get the voucher, like they have done for some fixtures in the past.

No, just tell UEFA to fuck off with their demands that no other competition can be played on the same day.

That should be the policy for every away game IMO.

meanwhile the (possible) cup QF v Watford is 1.30pm Sunday 13 March

I take it that the WBA game still goes ahead if Hull City beat us?

Yup, seems that way. If we make it past Hull, Wenger better not rest anyone ahead of the Wednesday glorified friendly in the Nou Camp

So if we beat Hull in the replay then we will play Watford in the quater final just a few days later!!! How are the club going to arrange the sale of tickets in that short time? Look at the balls up they made of the Barca tickets!!

How about a good old fashioned pay on the door, 60,000 capacity with 5,000 locked out :rubchin:

Will never happen obviously, but yes of course logistically it will be a mare for the box office who struggle to get the day of the week correct.
