    Seems like a pukka service offered by Visa for secure shopping online.

  2. The attendance against Marseille, at home, will be one of the lowest points in our club's history for me. Two of their players played in the World Cup final, it was ??15 or something ](*,)

     

    Yet at the away leg Marseille saw one of the largest away followings for a European game. :-k

     

    The home leg attendance was pathetic, I couldn't work it out. It was probably the biggest game of our season, I think MickyD is right add the S/T holders with kids to the attendance and it would have been a full house.

     

    We simply don't have very large numbers of active supporters to fill the gap when they don't come to the game.

  3. Do they provide the Werthers, or do you have to bring your own?
    Don't be a prick all your life. Have a day off now and then.

  4. Saw an advert on telly last night offering free yearly travel insurance if you take out buildings and contents insurance.

     

    I already had buildings and contents with them so I thought I would give them a ring to claim my free travel insurance, TBH I was expecting the drivel about new customers only ETC ETC.

     

    I was pleasently surprised, all I had to do was cancel my insurance and take out a new policy and hey presto free travel insurance for the family, the policy was ??72 a year cheaper with free legal cover as well.

  5. im trying to get some cheap train tickets, does anyone know any promotion codes etc to use over the internet??

  6. Right.  Thanks for your map which is very useful  (especially for those who, unlike me, haven't actually been to the ground yet).  

     

    We will be wing corner lower.  ??32.  We don't take enough away to get Upper as well.  Cheaper than last year.  Result.

     

    Why not? We may draw them in the latter stages of the cup and it might be well attended possibly a Cat A game, hence a ??60 ticket is possible for Bolton fans.

     

    Second point.  

     

    Finally can you explain how you buy a ??94 box ticket at the Reebok on your own. Arsenal are charging ??94 for one seat not one seat in a box.

     

    CAN YOU ragging READ

     

    Easy. You buy a box between 10 for at least ??1100 (which was what it cost 5 years ago for 10 people when I last bought one for the company that I was working for at the time). This will cost you more than ??94 each (I'm assuming that you can divide by 10)

     

    Finally to get back to mine and the TMW original point it's a fookin rip off and whatever you say isn't going to change my mind.

     

    FINE ??94 is a rip-off =D> . BUT IT ISN'T WHAT THEY'RE CHARGING AWAY FANS which is the point that TMW was making. AWAY FANS. YOU AND ME. AWAY FANS.

     

    NOBODY SAID THEY WERE YOU HAVE ASSUMED IT, I said oh dear ??94 for a football match, not Bolton will be charged ??94.

     

    Unless, of course, you're an Arsenal fan, in which case I don't apologise because you're a London t??sser.

     

    You've been, I've not. Are you talking about yourself here?

  7. Who mentioned Bolton? Somebody watching Arsenal in a Cat A game will have to pay ??94, it's crap. Some away supportes may also be charged ??60 as the upper corners is where they are usually located.

     

    I really don't care how much anyone else has to pay and nobody will HAVE to pay ??94. They can choose to buy the best seats in the house in the same way that they can choose to have a box. I'd also imagine that the best seats WON'T be for away fans.

     

    and TMW mentioned ??60 for away fans.

     

    I think you really are missing the point. Nobody asked you how much you care about what anybody else has to pay. The facts are that ??94 to watch a match is ridiculous as is ??60,potentially, for some away supporters. If you can't see this then you are either rolling in money or "deluded"!

     

     

    1) The statement was made by TMW that it was possibly going to be ??60 for away fans.

     

    2) You posted the list of prices @ The Emirates Stadium which on careful reading and inference based upon experience of whereabouts in a stadium the away fans sit, showed that it wasn't necessarily going to be ??60 for away fans.

     

    3) You, at the same time write "The TMW is right, oh dear ??94 for a football match"

     

    4) I have pointed out that it's not compulsory (or necessarily possible) for any fan to pay ??94 for a ticket - especially not an away fan.

     

    Now, TMW has not been proved to be right. The only way that TMW is right is if away fans are in Wing/Corner Upper for a CAT A match.

     

    I don't think I'm missing any point at all. Neither would I pay silly money to watch a game of football. In fact I boycotted the Chelsea game last year because of the prices.

     

    It already costs more than ??94 to watch BWFC at the Reebok if you buy a seat in a box.

     

    I think you will find away fans are in Wing/Corner Upper and lower.

    Incidentally, if anyone bothers to read the whole of the page from the Arsenal site, they will notice:

     

    Quote:

    Ticket prices

    Please note that there has been no increase in ticket prices for the first season at Emirates Stadium (for equivalent category seating at Highbury). Match ticket pricing at Emirates Stadium is based on the principle of an A and B grading, as follows:

     

     

    and it didn't cost me ??60 for my ticket last season (??35 IIRC)

     

    The grounds don't really compare, Highbury had no corner seating and no third tier.

     

    Looks like you will be sat with the home fans for your equivalent ??35.

     

    Finally can you explain how you buy a ??94 box ticket at the Reebok on your own. Arsenal are charging ??94 for one seat not one seat in a box.
