Arsenals cheapest season ticket is more expensive than

Post by aalderton »

Man uniteds most expensive ticket. We must have a protest before the first home game of the season about ticket prices. This is no joke I am deadly serious but how many people would realistically join me in this protest. We can't just keep renewing our season tickets and be completely quiet about our frustration over these prices. The question is how do you organise a mass protest outside of the ground on the first game of the season? Come on people lets stand up to stan kroenke and let every fans voice be heard. COME ON PEOPLE

Half of the people in the ground will be too busy taking photos of themselves and posting them on Facebook to notice

Utd's doesn't include the 7 cup matches that ours do which explains the difference in price.

Whether the 7 matches should be compulsory, however, is another debate.

Ours also includes the most games, on a game by game basis it is not the most expensive I believe?

I'm not denying its fucking expensive or its acceptable but the comparasion should be done on a game by game basis.
Yes villas season ticket is cheaper, but factor in its at a shit ground full of *word censored* in a shit cheap area with less overheads and more inportantly where the football played is gash!

I went to watch Bournemouth play when I first moved down here a few years ago and it cost me 20 quid! Needless to say I haven't been since!

Football is overpriced and out of control!

I think the club can get away with the 7 compulsory games all the while we're in the CL because 3 of them are guaranteed for that. If we were in the Channel 5 Cup heaven forbid, then I'd like to see the reaction because half a dozen games in that would be a shite deal

A point i'm sure Utd make to ST holders in their annual renewal packs :lol:

"Dear loyal season ticket holder, you will notice that the price of your season ticket is considerably less than those in London. This is because Old Trafford is in fact a shithole. The presence of many tens of thousands of "*word censored*" in our stadium has also been factored into the pricing structure..."

Other clubs don't get to see Gervinho, Song, Ramsey and Chamakh every week. You've never had it so good. If anything I feel they should charge MORE for the STs. I reckon if they sold RVP and charge £2.5k an ST, you'd all still renew. Kroenke and Ivan must be LOL :oops:

What did stand out on Sky's analysis just now is that we are the only club that have the compulsory 7 additional matches. Virtually every club had 19 match season tickets, Spurs had 21 (must be 2 for those Thursday nights :D ), but ours stood out at 26

Nice to see that Ivan's promised comprehensive review of ticketing arrangements that he promised the BSMs has really seen us fans win :(

Supply & Demand dahling, supply & demand. Despite several average seasons still people sign up for season tickets. Until that stops there's no need to change anything as its easy money for doing fuck all.
