    This club really don't get it do they? So the genius' at the board have decided to increase the matchday program by 50p going up to 3.50. Who's ****ing bright idea was that? It already costs up to 8 pounds to get a burger and drink, add the chips and it's 10 pounds, and now they decide to gift the fans even further by increasing the matchday program, seriously what the **** are they playing at? Do they think the majority of Arsenal fans are corporate millionaires?

    You've said in the past that it only takes you 30mins on the Piccadilly Line to get to the ground so why are you wasting money buying food there anyway.The must have a different menu where you sit because they don't serve burgers in the Clock End.

    I don't buy food from them, stopped buying from them for a long time. I buy from outside the ground.

    I sit in North Bank, upstairs, they serve burgers there, must be the peasants section in the Clock End where they give u toast and peanuts.

    Because I'd like to, and because it's still WRONG, ****ing hell. It's wrong to be charging the amount Arsenal do for a burger and chips, and a drink, and now they've increased the matchday program price too. Wouldn't a socialist like you be saying YEAH RIGHT ON.

    If I don't agree with the price of something I just don't buy it.
    P.S. What's a program ?

    That extra 50p could be put towards another bid for Suarez

    Yes, it does matter, it's a matchday program, if you think it doesn't matter, then you're speaking as someone who doesn't visit games, but for fans who are visiting games and spending money, yes, an added 50p does ****ing add up, it's more money out of their pocket, it's the club increasing the price on prices that are already at an all time high. Seriously, where the **** you been, you been deaf to the complaints of the majority of fans talking about Arsenal's high prices from tickets and refreshments at the stadium.

    Whether it's 50p, or 20p, yes, it does add up, why is the club increasing the price when fans are already paying out of their skins to watch this club, which thus far, has given ZERO return for all the money we spend. You obviously don't understand the British working class when you go on about IT'S ONLY 50P when they're already spending so much money, and have so much other ****ing bloody price increases to deal with in other parts of life, football isn't meant to be a part of the corporate structure that just keeps taking and taking from them.

    Why the **** didn't the club's board and directors, to the manager as well, take a cut in their salary to make up for whatever the **** they're planning here with the 50p increase. Yeah, the fans have to pay more, while Gazidis gets over 600 motherfucking thousand in bonus! Bonus? For what? Last I checked you get bonus for achieving something, not winning nothing, and only getting 4th spot.

    Nahhhhhhh, that's 2 much, instead, they charge the fans more, to increase the revenue at Arsenal, which the board and directors will benefit from in a nice fat chunk of bonus payments.

    If 50P WAS ONLY 50P as you say, the club wouldn't be adding it, but you see, it does add up eventually for big $$$ in the end, for them off course, not the fans.

    You see the thing is they are the heads of the club. And in the business world, the heads will get the business raises. Will the individual fan give a rat's ass about it, not unless they want to unnecessarily bitch about something. Will it add up to big profit, yes, get over it. Though I guess the club being richer pisses you off.
    This is probably one of the silliest points to whine about.

    Don't know where you been, but many many Arsenal fans have a problem with the bonus' and fat cheques the board at this club are getting. You say the club getting richer pisses me off, no, I said the club getting rich and these guys just giving themselves big bonus', while getting no success pisses me off. What the **** have we done since Arsenal has gotten so rich? Has there been a return for the fans in terms of success and trophies? Not at all, the only people that have benefited from Arsenal getting rich are the board.

    You are well and truly talking as someone who never visits Arsenal or puts a lot of money into the club but for those who are paying so much to watch Arsenal, while the board pocket a good amount of that $$$ while the fans get nothing in return in terms of success, is a sure ****ing thing for the individual fan to get pissed about.

    Seriously, you don't know what the **** you're talking about, because so many Arsenal fans bring this issue up, I suggest you visit the ground and listen to the talk of the town. I'll post a very good video from Arsenal fan tv when they load it up soon, it was a great interview with a fan after today's game who brings a lot of these issues up, and btw, he was applauded too by other fans, including me after he made his excellent points.

    Maybe Gazidis should hire you for his PR on why him and others should continue to pocket big bonus' while fans pay at an all time high while getting nothing in return, what the **** are you? Are you seriously paid by the Arsenal board to be their PR spin master? The fact you're defending them increasing prices, and pocketing big bonus' makes you a true and utter disgrace, this takes the cake, fair enough when it comes to your constant excuses for our failure on the pitch, but to defend these board members and their pocketing of $$$ takes the mother****ing cake.

    Are you a lawyer too for those ****y bankers who take in big bonuses even after they've ****ed the people over?

    If you're buying from outside the ground, then why are you moaning about the prices Arsenal charge ?

    For somebody who claims to piss their money up the wall on cheap slappers and expensive drinks at Spearmint Rhino, I think it's hilarious that you're ranting so much about fifty pence at the Arsenal.
