My mate is a season ticket holder, and I am a silver member, but we are not away members. We are trying to get hold of 2 tickets for Leicester away.
We have just about had enough of the tourist attraction that is the bowl, and want to start doing away games instead.
If anyone can help, PM me, thanks. :barscarf:

Exactly.

I cant believe people are predicting we will lose this game ... don't they know the drill by now? Have they really forgotten how it works with our club?

This has 3-0 Arsenal written all over it. Followed by some mug (probably Walcott) making it known how the players had got together and felt they owed the manager after Sunday.

A win means nothing against a team just rolled by Hull and in my view likely to get relegated. A loss however........

Make no mistake about it, the title challenge is on the line. I dont get this whole 'its only one game' mentality. Whilst it is one game, its a lost game. No team typically wins the league with less than 5 losses over a season, and we give up one our first day. Teams seldom win the league should they lose two on the trot.

Rather than thinking a team starts the season on zero points, I view it as every team stars the season with 114 points, and for every lose or draw you get points deducted. Should you lose your two opening games, the margin for error is almost cut in half - as you have basically given up half your accepted amounts of losses in 2 games. Title winning teams should be looking to get to Christmas having lost no more than 3 games at most. FFS Leicester lost 3 games all last season, and Chelsea lost the same amount the year before.

These are the fine margins by which titles are won and lost. You either appreciate the fact this week is a must win game, or your a joker who doesn't appreciate what it takes to win.

Sorry mate, are you saying this team under this manager can seriously mount a title challenge this season?

Of course not. Im saying too many, including Wenger are passive about what it takes to win. When we lose a game, they pretend likes its not a big deal.

They think the premier league is forgiving, and that second chances will be rewarded. Hence, we lost about Liverpool - but all the Wenger lap dogs arnt too worried, because 'its only the first game'.

Wilson - you are viewing things from the perspective of someone who actually wants to win things.

Arsene PLC don't want to do this. Kroenke has even come out and said that he has no ambition to win the league, how much clearer does he have to make it?

Wenger and the AKBs are content in the knowledge that one defeat really doesn't mean too much. You say we start on 114 points. Ok well we probably need to get to 70 to finish 4th. That means we can drop another 40+ points this season (and we will)

I'm sorry if this sounds a bit cunty but the ONLY good thing to come out of the game on Sunday was Messi-Lite pulling up injured. :oops: :oops:
