View From The Top Posted 5 July, 2012 Share Posted 5 July, 2012 I would imagine that this will be the most in demand away game of the season so what sort of allocation can we expect? Already booked my train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexstar Posted 5 July, 2012 Share Posted 5 July, 2012 Think it's around 3,000. Being only our second away game i'm guessing if you go to Man City you are pretty much guaranteed a ticket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saints_is_the_south Posted 5 July, 2012 Share Posted 5 July, 2012 Not bothering with City (been there before, on TV on a Sunday...etc) so this will be the first away game of the season for me. Very excite! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going to pay to go to City when it's on the box, especially as I'm not sure I'll be in the UK that weekend now it's confirmed as a TV game.

Nexstar Posted 5 July, 2012 Share Posted 5 July, 2012 Doubt we'll shift 3k at City anyway, would just mean less chance for STHs not going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysaint Posted 20 August, 2012 Share Posted 20 August, 2012 Well I might as well be the first to ask, anyone any unofficial news on the long awaited Arsenal tickets and how they are going to allocate the remainder of the 3K allocation, if in fact there are any left at all.

fish fingers Posted 20 August, 2012 Share Posted 20 August, 2012 It'll just be a scramble for STH's that didn't go yesterday. That said, there could be extra loyalty points available for those going to Stevenage next Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fish fingers Posted 22 August, 2012 Share Posted 22 August, 2012 True. I imagine there will be around 1,000 left for sale below the 45 points then. Reckon it might be slightly more. The capacity was 47,805 and attendance was 46,190. City apparently sold out so potentially 1,615 empty seats. Take away some segregation and the probability that some fans that went a. can't go to Arsenal and b. are not going to both Wigan and Man U then i reckon there could be around 1,200ish tickets for the 30 point crew. I have 45 points, but some of our group didn't have the City points. Confident we'll get tickets for all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintDominic Posted 22 August, 2012 Share Posted 22 August, 2012 Maybe being thick but what happens if you are a season ticket holder who went to Man City? ie you've been to Man City and the 2 home games but you wouldn't have the loyalty points?

Barry the Badger Posted 22 August, 2012 Share Posted 22 August, 2012 Hmmm, four of us went to City but one didn't. Do we wait and try and get all together in the second window? I'm probably over thinking it as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheer The last tickets will be snapped up on the morning of Tuesday 28 August, it will be a massive scramble. The only way it can sell out before 28th is if the ticket office screw up - not impossible! - and sell more than one per person to the fans who went to Man C (plus the other two home games). I'm guessing the phones have been scrapped because past experience shows that the phone systems won't be able to cope. Although whether the online system can cope is another issue.

WHITEE1987 Posted 23 August, 2012 Share Posted 23 August, 2012 The online system has a queuing system built in now which actually works quite well. It may not be able to remember your password still but the queue works well. Informed a mate of mine last night that i'm not waiting 5 days to get Arsenal tickets with him. Its his fault he was too cheap to go to city. Il have mine bought and paid for by 0910 this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm probably over thinking it as always. Just get your 4 now so you're guaranteed and get your other mate to sort himself out in the season ticket sale period, as that will be a free for all. The whole end will stand so you'll easily be able to squeeze your mate in next to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graffito Posted 6 September, 2012 Share Posted 6 September, 2012 What pub for this one ? The Drayton Park on Drayton Park Rd is a stone's throw from the stadium and is where the Saints fans congregated last time we played Arsenal. Likely to be crowded and noisy. A quieter pub with better beer would be The Bank of Friendship on Blackstock Rd. Been there many times but never on a matchday. Would have thought it's fine though. There are loads of pubs along Upper St in Islington. Most will be busy and noisy. Start at Highbury and Islington tube and work your way down or start at Angel tube and work your way up (i.e. towards Highbury). Allow time though. The stretch between Angel and Highbury and Islington is probably about a mile and then there's another 10 minute walk from H&I tube to the Emirates (quickest route across Highbury Fields opposite tube). The Compton Arms tucked away on Compton Avenue just across from Highbury and Islington tube is a quieter option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
