I've never known a time when Arsenal have been in such a mess.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

We were in more of a mess last summer.

By time - i meant the last two years - the period of the season ticket waiting list decline.... but yes I would agree last year was even worse. But we still have time this summer to surpass even that!

The launch of the bond scheme in 1991 wasn't a good time (although we did win the league that year!):

So 18000 people have either refused to renew, or passed up on buying one.

Expect the club to struggle to fill the stadium - we're likely to see even more empty seats next year.

This trend will hopefully signal to Kroenke that the fans are not happy with the way things are going.
=======================================
I wish you were right but I know for fact that there are far (far) more than 18000 people on waiting list so the seasonal tickets will still be sold out!

If Theo goes it'll be worse I think.

But I am still upbeat and hopeful that we will reinvest the money from RvP's sale, and hopefully we can strike an agreement with Theo. Problem is we paid him too much from a young age...

I think most people are sharing season tickets now, the one I had before I came to live in Spain is shared amongst 3 people.

Might just get one.

Shoot, that's too much!!! That's approx £58 per game, (24 games, you get 7 cup games free, usually you use up about 6 cup games)

My one is about £930 or something, really good seats, really great atmosphere!

I would pass on it, especially with what is happening now.

You are kidding me!

The offer i have is for £1423 BEHIND the goals, or £1173 behind the goals in the last 10 rows!!!!

Both UPPER tier i might add!

I sit near the pitch (6 rows in) near the corner flag to the left of the dug out. Below the big screen.

It's the noisiest place, fantastic atmosphere, to the left of me the fans are practically on their feet all game.

It's not worth it, in fact write a letter of why you are declining! That is a ridiculous price for a team who hasn't won anything for ages and unlikely to in the near future. They are taking the Pi$$!

**** that, World's gone mad.

It seems to me like Arsenal are lying about increasing ticket prices. They say one thing in the press and then up the prices when sending out direct quotes to fans.

They know not enough fans will get together to compare prices, so they can get away with it.

Just more disgusting underhand behaviour from the board.

posted on 6/7/12

Maybe you right there, I think they have increased the new tickets but not the existing ticket prices.

They are taking the flipping pi$$.

The best way is to find someone who you can be a part of the season ticket, most can't afford to go every year but don't want to lose the privileges.

But I definitely think you should write a letter to them.

-----------------------------------------------------

You were banned? Must have been today right???

Listen i think the MODS got a telling off over there for their antics;

Deleting, changing, closing, and actually changing what people wrote. Really really poor behaviour.

I think they have got together to blame other people.

i actually got banned whilst not even posting

posted on 6/7/12

Looks like Robin Van Bergkamp has been banned from not606 too????? !!!!

posted on 6/7/12

Yes i was banned this afternoon.

You're right about the Mods they got a roasting off Cyprussyd and have had it in for a few of the dissenters.

Hey-ho it seems OK on here tho.

good luck.

I din't know that, looks like CYM's having a purge.

posted on 6/7/12

CYM is as bad as Pikie... i think they really went to town on you and actually deleted all your posts

These guys are scvm.

posted on 6/7/12

Yes, there is no trace of me left on the site.

The irony is if they clear out all the dissenters there will only be the 3 Mods left, not a clever strategy for a website forum.
