Chance to play at Highbury

Chance to play at Highbury

Post by wehatet******** »

I missed out in the ballot :( but went along this afternoon maybe to watch. Not a hope! Security: couldn't handle the extra crowds blah blah. :roll: Spoke to one 'player' who said it was a lifelong dream - overjoyed. Did anyone out there play, try to get in and watch like me etc? How do you feel about it? :?:

Arsenal jobsworths. Looking forward to the auction in July. Might have cost me £23 to get a catalogue to gain entry to the East Stand, but It will be great to sit in that stand one last time. Might even take along a spanner set and get my seat! :wink:

Good thinking! But what about the cadmium scare though? I did write in expressing concern about the concentration levels of Cadmium for someone sitting in the middle of all those potentially poisionous seats but the club didn't respond? :twisted:

I know this is a late reply but look at my 'Ultimate Fans Day 2006' Thread
