The only fair way to compare is to take the price for each category and multiply by seats available at that price, then add all of them together and divide by total seats. Thus calculating the true average price per game which then can be compared across teams.
orherwise you have the situation (as stated wrongly in the gutter press) that we have the dearest tickets (because some are highly priced) when in fact the average price is comparable.

Anybody know what those comparative figures are ?
 
I know a couple of seasons ago that if you divided the cheapest Arsenal S.T. by 26 and the cheapest Liverpool by 19 likewise the dearest Arsenal and the dearest Spurs ; on a game by game basis our cheapest was cheaper than Liverpool and our dearest was cheaper than Spurs.
 
Well at least the season tickets didn't go up this year, I paid around 1,100 thanks to selling a few games on ticket exchange, i paid 1500 quid last year.

These are the prices per game for highest and lowest priced season tickets (top 6 clubs):

Spuds £99.74
Man City £92.11
Arsenal £78.42
Chelsea £65.79
Man U £50.00
Liverpool £45.74

Spuds £40.26
Arsenal £39.81
Liverpool £37.37
Chelsea £31.32
Man U £28.00
Man City £15.74

So, it would appear our dear neighbours are the most expensive to watch, which is bizarre given the **** ground and **** football.

Wow £39, that is a hell of a lot of money to support Bristol City!

It's a massive pisstake by Sheffield Wed trying to take advantage of it being Bristol City's first game after promotion and likely to bring 5000+ at fair prices. Legally they have to charge home fans the same for an equivalent seat so presumably they're making it stupidly expensive behind the goals and regular price down the sides.

It's £25 for other teams going there.

As Arsenal fans we get ripped off nearly every away game we go to

Which I don't agree with but can understand. It's more of a draw for a casual West Brom fan to see Arsenal, United etc. so they'll charge 'category A' prices to their own fans and you pay the same.

This is category AAA+ prices for a standard game.

I agree with you on the Champions league, the overall quality of the EPL has significantly gone down which is why all the teams are getting swept aside by the rest of the Europeans. We will do better this time round but we are still a way off from being the finished article. I do believe we are good enough to win the league but to really compete in the Champions league, we require a top, clinical CF. Giroud is a very good player but when you come across the elite of Europe, you need that elite striker that puts away the few chances you get. In the league its different, we will always make loads of chances to which Giroud and the rest will get plenty of assists. This soon dried up when you get into the upper echelons of the Champions league.

We should get to the quarters of the CL, but if we come up against the big guns, we will lose. But we will make it respectable.

Ironic!! I thought Arsenal were one of the "big guns"!! Or does that term only apply to Real, Barca, and Bayern and the rest of Europe is way behind?
 
My expectations are to compete for the title to the last whistle. To be up there in the running till the final moments of the season or better still win it. Definitely have to better our points tally.
Win a domestic cup.
Get to the QF of the CL at the very least.
