Colinjb Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 (edited) According the website it now is. A shame, looks like we could have sold this out a few times over! Edited 6 November, 2013 by Colinjb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackanorySFC Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 According the website it now is. Very disappointing, especially personally as Dad went down the ticket office yesterday only to be informed that the away tickets for Stoke did not count towards the eligibility for buying during the 'season ticket holders who have been to one away game' period. This needs to be clearer. To be fair I thought this was very clear beforehand? Well certainly to me and others at Stoke that were gutted we weren't counted as the "2 aways" last week, instead had to queue up yesterday and got one OK. Not one to stick up for our shambles of a ticket office but on this occasion, to me anyway, it was pretty clear Stoke didn't count - although on a rather different point I'd argue that it should have.

We specifically checked the website to be sure but it wasn't stated. C'est la vie now anyway, will know to be more careful in future.

Stevie61163 Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 How much clearer can they make it??? All sales dates are subject to remaining ticket availability. Please note that only games that have been played prior to the first on-sale date above – Tuesday 29th October – will count as credits for this fixture. For the avoidance of doubt, these games are: West Bromwich Albion (17/08/2013), Barnsley (27/08/2013), Norwich City (31/08/2013), Liverpool (21/09/2013) and Manchester United (19/10/2013).

Scummer Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 It was pretty clear which games were included. I hadn't even considered going and I knew Stoke wasn't included from reading this site. From the OS: All sales dates are subject to remaining ticket availability.

Lets B Avenue Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 We specifically checked the website to be sure but it wasn't stated. http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/arsenal-ticketing-information-1128297.aspx TBF Colin, this was one of their clearer and logical decisions. People were buying tickets for the cheaper games, such as Barnsley and then returning them, so as they could claim a ticket for Liverpool/Man U. They decided that the Stoke price would lead to more. They listed the games that counted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintNeil90 Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 The only games that count are those up to the time that the ticket details are released. If that makes sense. As people have said, they are all stated on the details page for each game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRM Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 what really annoys me about the ticket office is their unwillingness to disclose the allocation we have and keep it a secret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Garrett Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 what really annoys me about the ticket office is their unwillingness to disclose the allocation we have and keep it a secret. Went with a mate on Saturday who didn't have a ticket - we went and asked in their TO what the situation was with away tickets - and he said cash turnstile. I asked how many did he think we had available, and he said he had no idea as they didn't know the allocation. One of the other blokes just laughed, and said "They don't even tell their own fans how many tickets they've got, they're not going to tell us!" He turned his screen round and showed us we had 4 blocks, and said he reckoned the allocation was about 2800-3000, though he still didn't know exactly. See no reason why they're so keen to keep this quiet - it's all very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giordano Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 I got in Arsenal without a ticket a few years back with Pavsaint when WGS was manager. Cash in gate home end. Wear a suit or smart casual. Don't sing saints songs or cheer when / if we score. Neither was a problem. If you go this year id be very surprised if there's not tickets available outside from touts. Wait til kick off and just after and they will be cheap as chips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jai27 Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 In the home end it is then. Whats the deal with sitting in the home end? Keep your head down and smile or is the Emirates a bit more away fan friendly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cat Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 Whats the deal with sitting in the home end? Keep your head down and smile or is the Emirates a bit more away fan friendly? One of the easiest grounds to get away with it at. A lot of their crowd is made up of daytrippers and tourists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Garrett Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 How many are we taking to Arsenal No idea but would guess the max full allocation so around 3000. By the sound of it we could have sold 30000 for this game at £25!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colinjb Posted 6 November, 2013 Author Share Posted 6 November, 2013 We've got wheelchair tickets. Borrowing by granddads wheel chair. Half the price and get a comfier seat! Should we score remember not to stand up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
100%Red&White Posted 6 November, 2013 Share Posted 6 November, 2013 Whats the deal with sitting in the home end? Keep your head down and smile or is the Emirates a bit more away fan friendly? If you jump and down then there will always be someone nearby who'll take umbrage and if you don't get lumped you're just as likely get thrown out by the stewards. Just because the Emirates doesn't come across as an intimidating bear pit it also doesn't mean they haven't got a nawty mob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
