Ticket price changes

126 quid top price ticket The end is nigh.

I am sure those that are stupid enough to purchase these will think that is quite reasonable

All the Cat A games last season were live on Sky.So if you are a silver member keep your money in you pocket

£25.50 for Cat C is decent, so credit where it's due I applaud em for that. But tickets for all games should start at this sorta price, £25 for lower tier & £35 for upper is not unreasonable I don't believe. But this is Arsenal, where greed rules & the fans must be made to cough up for the shortcomings of revenue generation in other areas, namely commercial & sponsorship deals.

How in the fuck can they justify £62 as a STARTING PRICE for Cat A games?! £126 for centre upper?! Fucking disgusting & I hope they play to half empty stadiums at these matches, although of course we know this won't happen.

I am fairly fortunate that at the moment I can afford to attend most, if not all games both home & away. In fact i've missed only 1 home game in the last 4 seasons. But i think this is it for me, I probably won't bother with Cat A games anymore, this is fucking sick. For a quarter of the price I can have a much better time watching in the pub. I'd like to think many more people would act to force the clubs hand, but we all know nothing will change.

Interested to see what the cat the remaining games of the season fall into and what the difference in cost will be in relation to my season ticket. Have no idea how on earth they can justify £62 for a CAT A game ticket???

Also it makes its a pain in the arse if for any reason I cant make a game and need to sell on. Now only going to be getting £25 instead of £35.

According to @BlackScarfAFC

If you bought a lower tier seat match by match for every league game last season, you'd have paid £745. Next season it'll cost you £737. So in effect, ticket prices are down if you go to every league game (lower tier). Down by £0.36 per game.

I think he was guessing which games would be Cat C etc.

As per Twitter I make Blackscarf wrong. This all depends on the amount of Cat C game but we all now the club will won't to make money.

Blackscarf thinks they'll be 5 Cat A as current, 7 Cat B & 7 Cat C. (excluding the 7 cat B cup games).
I think it will more likely be 5+10+4

You think it'll be 4 cat C's?

There's already 4 listed before the new year (Southampton, Sunderland, Swansea and West Brom). Surely there will be at least a couple more in the second half of the season? e.g. Stoke? Reading? Norwich? and Wigan?

I reckon there could be 7 or 8 cat C's.

(that would leave cat A as Citeh, United, Liverpool, Sp*rs and Chelsea = 5 cat A's; and Newcastle, Villa, QPR, Fulham, West Ham and Everton = 6 cat B's).

UEFA champions league and FA cup fixtures will be A and B pricing Pravda.com

So FA cup games which we play a B team will cost more than some league games

[Red Member]

FA Cup games should be category C whoever we play.
It just is no longer an important competition. Sad but true.

the 5.15 kick off time on the weekend before the PL finishes has decided that

[mikeyb772001]

takes the piss!

I for one will work out what my season ticket costs and divide games up to what there worth. Will sell any cat a for 50 as always and all the others will be 35 still

the club are a bunch of wankers

anyone that wants my ticket in block 6. As always silver members will snap up the lower tier tickets and block 6 is full of season ticket holders so nobody gets tickets there.

Dont give a fuck what anyone thinks, im not making money from it as its MY season ticket and only covering face value cost.

same as class a games. i wil sell for 50 quid

the club can fuck off

Same here, its absolute bollocks and once again those that commit themselves to the club are being screwed over. This season I was intending on selling around 50% of the games against so called "lower opposition" at the soulless bowl in order to fund the tickets I purchase on the Away Scheme, this has royally f***ed me as now it looks like I'll probably get £20 for a CAT C game when clubs that fall within the Cat C fixture at the Grove charge us full whack for tickets.

On another note be interesting to see how much away fans pay for their tickets this year, if Cat C Away support are also paying £25 a ticket to sit in the lower tier then thats just wrong!!

[clockender1]

well i think it's good that they dropped prices for some games - obviously due to lack of demand, and the ticket transfer scheme seems to fix the problem of the old bill swiping you for passing a ticket to a mate outside teh ground.

that said, 60 quid for the cheapest ticket for CAT A is disgraceful, and i think the club have got this wrong given our current patchy form.

if you are a red or silver member and you want to see the odd game, are you going to fork out 60-100 quid to watch us lose at home to City, or fork out 25 quid to watch us beat sunderland 3-0 ?

i know which one i'd choose - particularly when the CAT A is going to be on Sunday, Saturday morning or Monday Night.

If we were flying every year, then obviously you want to see us beat City, united, chavs etc - but if we're not playing well it's a much bigger decision to risk 60-100 quid than 10-15 quid like in the old days of CAT A games.

During the 80's i am sure I can remember one season under Don Howe where the only CAT A game was home versus the Spuds and then the FA Cup.

there was a reason for that. we were shite...

Just another money spinning way that leaves you no excuse if you pass your ticket on. Can only transfer to existing members who have to pay £40 for the "privilege" of being able to buy a ticket.

Seriously think that its time for the BSM to follow on from their march before Villa in 2011 and get something in place for Sunderland at home. I'm sick of it and if this and the RVP saga was announced before Season Ticket/Away Membership deadlines I wouldnt have renewed.
