I really want to buy tickets to see Arsenal at their stadium for my boyfriends birthday. The internet package deals with hotel are really expensive.
Does anyone have any ideas? Just the tickets would be fine and then I could search seperatly for hotel prices :money:

Write a letter to the club, address it to the ticket office manager and see what you get back. If you are able to go watch a large number of games then let them know you are prepared to go watch those games, check their fixture list on the arsenal website. Be sensible with your selections, don't list United, Totenham, Chelsea and Liverpool as the options of the matches you want to go to it isnt going to happen. maybe you could specify any match played on a saturday till the end of the season somthing like that.
Arsenal opperate a multi tierd membership system for priority of tickets and the botom membership costs £20 for half a season. robbing c nuts just to get the chance to buy tickets.
Hopfuly the ticket office will help you out, I know an excelent ticket office manager and he always tries to help people out.0 -

Hi, Littlejohn, Can i just ask if you need to be a member to do this? I would love to take my 8 year old to a game, any game, preferably at the emirates but im sure he wont really mind. I am prepared to go any game (not too far from home ) any weekend.
Thanks alot0 -
No no member ship required to just send a letter in, it is just the thing of getting the ticket office manager on a good day and if there are any tickets available. Being flexable will give you a great chance of getting somthing.
What isnt too far from home? Asenal being at the top of the league makes them very popular but if your close to another club then your chances will be better applying to them for tickets. There are only a few clubs in the premiership that sell out every match and can have a membership system in place like they do.
The club I work at doesnt sell out unless its the big 5 clubs (Newcastle not included as a big club BTW) and often have discounted ticket matches especially eufa, FA and league cup matches ok so they are not premier leage matches and you may not see the full premier league team but its all about the excitement for the kid of going to a match, sitting in the stadium, dad paying a small fortune for a bag of crisps and a drink at half time and the noise. Unfortunalty the cup matches tend to take place midweek then again most leage matches are now not at 3pm on a saturday afternoon. I hate sky tv ruined football.0
