We won't be having the pleasure of your company then?

much as i hate the concept of club level

this is why i said when we moved to the ewmirates that it was a necessity

the recession may mean games not selling out .. but club level income is nearly guranteed due to advance sales ... it is naive to think the stadium could have been built without it ...

alas no im broke! ive had to limit the games i go to! paying back money, being a young homeowner and having xmas + and mot amd tax to come is the reason! plus our annual maintenance fee for our flat is due (another 1200 quid for naf all)

coupled with the fact its a trek from bournemouth and expensive on fuel, and in all honesty sat in the upper tier i just dont think the match day experience is worth that cost!

Many factors - due to credit crunch, tickets way to expensive, the novelty of the Emirates has worn off, lack of success on the pitch.

The Welsh are well known glory hunters

Is glory a breed of sheep?

I hope the Chief Constable of Wales is not reading these posts or we could expect a 6.00am knock on the door.

Real fans dont sit in club level.. OUCH!!!!!

Tell that to some of the shareholders who sit in Club Level -- I'm sure that having followed the Club for some 40 years or more and being willing to put their money where their mouths are makes them 'unreal' too.

Look at his comment and look at mine, I am sure you will see the humour in it.. Or is your sense of humour lost?

Depends on one's perspective. No, I didn't and don't find it funny.

Well, shame then! I didnt find his initial post funny either. And you failed to chastise him on that suprisingly

Talking about me are we?

Yep, Icon, I guess under ECO (equal chastising opportunities) I am supposed to chastise you - though I think all members are *real* supporters so a member not having to sit at their computer at 9:30 to get tickets under the membership scheme qualifies as real supporters to me.

Stick, wrong, of, the, end

If you're bored you can put those words together and form a sentence.

Good grief! This post was about-

1. My concern that sales were slow in general.
2. A secondary concern that the Kiev game might not be sold out and if it was it would be populated by tourists etc who would not contribute to the atmosphere we will need to win the game.
3. and that the only 'good' thing about slow sales was that there need'nt be a mad rush to buy a ticket when they go on sale. I was referring to those die-hard Gunners with red memberships who are forever in long on-line queues trying to buy tickets.

Whats offensive about that? Why bring club level into it? Get the stick out of your ****.
