So, following on from my post justifying the cost of my Arsenal season ticket, I wonder how much you'd be willing to pay to see your team play?

I have actually paid £1200 for my Arsenal season ticket for 2008/9 but really cannot afford this and am actively looking for someone to share it with me. Failing that, this will be my last season ;o(

It has become a joke, btu then if fans are going to shout for big money signings, someone has to pay for it. The club is ultimately a business with shareholders, and will not inconvenience itself on our behalf. If we continue to present ourselves as cash cows, we will be treated as such.

I paid £925 for my 2008/09 season ticket, which is an absolutely outrageous price. However, if I don't renew it, I lose it and will NEVER be able to get another, as there are over 38,000 people in the waiting list to take my place. Arsenal have loyal supporters by the pods, and they are making the most of it by twisting them!

moved from the south to the north over 20 years ago,my 16 year old son and I are red members so we rely on being able to get a ticket when we have got a couple of quid spare, not a chance of being able to afford a season ticket and the travel that is involved every couple of weeks,we try to get tickets for northern matches but as red members are pretty low on the food chain when it comes to ticket allocation.
It is the way of big football though,players , facilities, it all costs lots of money, things have moved on since the 70's and 80's but so has the level of football and the grounds we watch them in and of course it is always he "punter" that pays.
