Football Tickets...

Hurler on the Bitch · January 08, 2008, 07:40:43 AM

Will be in London on the weekend of the 4th Round of "the magical, the romantic" FA Cup.... well according to the BBC anyway... Presuming that Arsenal's game is at home, say at 3.00pm on the Saturday.... and presuming that the stadium may not be a sell-out... where would I get two tickets for the game?

Help appreciated..

What's the date?

I could possibly get you one but that mightn't be romantic enough for you.

Apparently tickets for Arsenal home league games this year are near impossible to get, I boy in my class is a Gunner from North London and he's been to a handful of away games this season but none at the Emirates as a result. Not sure if the Cup tickets will be easier to get, who are Arsenal playing next round?

Arsenal is reputed to be the new West End, with associated ticketing difficulties, ever Harry and Harriot looking for them. Best bet is try a independent forum, or Im sure the club will have some lovely packages they can sell you. try http://www.awimb.com/

Just thought that being the cup there may be a chance of getting 2 of the 60000 tickets... going by the games on Saturday there is little or no interest among the bigger clubs .. then again the Gunners have had full houses at their Carling Cup games... Celtic don't even open the top deckk for some of their cup games. PS - are Larne at home that day (providing I can get a ticket) ... just want to have a fall back option is plan a goes wrong..

prob with the cup is that the away team is entitled to 15% of the tickets, leaving less for the hornbys ordinary members. You would have more chance of getting a ticket in the Stoke end.

There'll be no bother getting tickets. There are still plenty available for tomorrow night and this Saturday. The Newcastle cup game will not be a sell-out before the day.
