    Then you're mistaken. So what if Arsenal were better than United for a while? They've been the biggest club in England since the Sky era and are the biggest economic force in world sport.

    If you look on a game by game basis we do not have the most expensive season tickets.

    Yes I think the extra games means one or two teams work out more expensively. But there is no option to buy only the league games is there? I am not sure. I think you have to spend more money to get a season ticket at Arsenal than anywhere else?

    It is London though.

    If we sold our ST's for league games only,we would still not be the most expensive.It may have changed now but Man Utd ST's were only valid for league games but you were then forced to buy tickets for cup games even if you didn't want to attend.This included league cup games.

    Are you saying that a season ticket is more expensive for Man U than at Arsenal? I did not know that.

    I'm not saying that <ok>
    I'm just making the point that Man Utd force their ST holders to buy tickets to games they may not wish to attend.
    I know that some of the AFC supporters groups are pushing the club to introduce league game only ST's which i think is a good idea

    They're not 'forced' to buy any cup games, at Manu they will have their seat reserved for a cup game for a specific amount of time giving them first place before any other fans to make the purchase, if they choose to not make the purchase, their seat will be given up for that game.

    Just like Arsenal now do with League Cup games, my seat is reserved for me and I have an amount of time to purchase the ticket for the game, if I don't, my seat will be given up for the game.

    On a game by game basis our cheapest ST is cheaper than the cheapest at Anfield and our dearest is cheaper than the dearest at Spurs.

    Our cheapest is cheaper than Liverpool, but not a single club charge what I'm paying, I pay the highest ST of any fan at any other club, FACT. 1350

    Do you just like to always ignore that fact?????? No fan in this country pays 1350 or 1500 as Arsenal ST do, that is THE HIGHEST ST price in the land.

    Its very confusing.

    The link says Liverpool cheapest is £725 and Arsenal cheapest is £985
    Dearest at Tottenham is £1845 and dearest at Arsenal is £1955

    It says Arsenal have most expensive cheapest season ticket and most expensive dearest season ticket:confused:

    It still wouldn't come to what I'm paying if they had to buy their ticket. ;-)

    I pay for League Cup games, and away matches too, just bought an away ticket for the Bradford game, f--k me, I'm such a bad fan.
    You don't have to buy a league cup ticket though.I'm going to Bradford we'll have to meet up for a beer <ok>
