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.

In the last couple of years I have become an avid follower of the NFL (Seahawks!) and only this summer I have started following MLB. I never thought years ago these sports would be remotely interesting and I appreciate they are not everyone's cup of tea, but such was/is my disappointment in he way the club is run now I invest myself in other things.

Perhaps you could sell it on to Barcelona for half its market value and let them pay you over 37 years for the privilege

Maybe you could sell it to a Liverpool fan for roughly half it's value and then tell them on the phone that it's a "better ticket than you think".

There is a club level seat available right now, only about 20 seats from where Ivan sits, at £291.00.... yep, just settle your eyes on that figure for a moment..... to watch us play Liverpool
Okay, you get a half time pint and a programme and the opportunity to buy some over priced burger and chips for that, but in what universe is £291.00 an acceptable price to pay to watch a game of football?
I predict we could be only 13 months away from breaking the £300.00 barrier to watch a premier league game.
Excellent banter regarding low-ball/+£1 bids, signing and selling youth 'prospects' who never play and being mugged off by Barcelona
I am not looking forward to the Victims game at all. Although, I think it may be easier to not watch any more, once the second goal goes in and our pre-arranged like-for-like substitutions take place, as I'll know we'll never trouble the opposition goalkeeper. I could save 20 minutes per game, which comes to about 16.66 hours per season (20 mins x 50 games (approx) = 1000 mins / 60). Not bad
