Arsenal to compensate supporters

Arsenal have announced that they will buy another away ticket to any supporters that attended Sunday's 8-2 defeat to Manchester United.

Around 3,000 fans are thought to have made the 400-mile round trip to Manchester, only to see their team humiliated by the Red Devils.

Arsene Wenger and his inexperienced team were widely criticised for their showing on the pitch, but the travelling support gained widespread praise for backing their team throughout.

The north London club confirmed on Monday afternoon that they would be offering to compensate the supporters who made the trip by paying for a ticket for another away game.

"Arsenal Football Club has announced it will be writing to fans who travelled to Old Trafford on Sunday with an offer to cover the cost of a match ticket at a future Barclays Premier League away game," a club statement read.

"Sunday's result was obviously disappointing for everyone connected with the club. Our travelling fans were magnificent throughout and we want to recognise their fantastic support. We will be writing to them shortly with the details."

Are Arsenal going to pay me for the anguish I suffered watching the game on Sky?
The stress and misery was too much for my ageing body.
Wenger's got a lot to answer for. How many suicides were there in the last few weeks?

 

I don't think that is what they want is it? What they really want is for some money to be spent on players they NEED not luxury back ups like Gervinho and Oxlade-Chamberlain.

 

POOP the bed your boys were awful...............................................................Wenger will no doubt pop over to France to pick up some bargain basement French speaking N Africans...................

 

With luck you might fill two 15 seater's and a taxi! No expense spared love it
