10 years on and we are finally working on it Just need rid of the pasty white ginger

In isolation its a sensible signing, however its not and its just another cheap option for our tinpot club

Or Bruce plans to dump the hard work Rafa did on the 3 centre back system

Arsenal Ignoring the corporate boxes (As i dont know for sure what has been sold) the capacity is 50,936 of which 8,746 tickets are available. This figure includes the Arsenal section being sold out (3177 seats) **797 tickets have been sold since my last update on the 29th **

- St James Park has a total of 268 'blocks' of tickets which make up the capacity of 52156 - Of these 268 blocks you can only buy season tickets in 140 of them. The rest of the blocks are private boxes, corporate, press, away fans etc. - The capacity of these 140 blocks is 45,255 - Of those 45,255 season tickets only 10,815 seats are now available (34,440 are sold/unavailable) - This means 23.9% of the available season ticket pool is still available **139 Season tickets have been sold since my last update on the 29th **

11,121 available to buy this morning, an additional (non corporate box) seats 1683 were 'blocked' but unsold

Just an opportunity to have a day away from their parents house to drink and take coke

Im able to pull out the source code for the ticketing portal for each event and the season tickets sales. Those pages tell you how many tickets are available for each block and also the capacity for each block. It’s not possible for them to hide/remove this data as it generates the graphical interface used to select exact seats. Over half of the blocks in the stadium are ‘blocked’ for various reasons which is why there can be some confusion over exact figures

Gone up by 138 seats then. Nah, ive included more blocks now than I did at the start. Previously I was only counting those that were available to the public (for some reason some blocks in East and Leazes are unavailable despite having tickets sold)

Oh and 7376 tickets have been sold for St Etienne

4 with Ritchie 5 with Clarke

So I had a look at the Arsenal ticket sales again Ignoring the corporate boxes (As i dont know for sure what has been sold) the capacity is 50,936 of which 9,543 tickets are available. This figure include the Arsenal section being sold out (3177 seats)

Ok, I am much happier with this data. - St James Park has a total of 268 'blocks' of tickets which make up the capacity of 52156 - Of these 268 blocks you can only buy season tickets in 140 of them. The rest of the blocks are private boxes, corporate, press, away fans etc. - The capacity of these 140 blocks is 45,255 - Of those 45,255 season tickets only 10,954 seats are now available (34,301 are sold/unavailable) - This means 24.21% of the available season ticket pool is still available

There's over 10k left for Arsenal? It was 9k the other day. No the data I provided earlier was for season tickets, not arsenal sales

Im currently doing so much deeper analysis into the sales data as I now know what the capacity of each section is. Simply taking the number of available seats for the capacity is/was wildly inaccurate as many sections of the stadium are unavailable to purchase eg directors box, press area, away sections, sensory room etc. Ill be back later with some much more relevant data

61 Tickets sold in the last 48 hours which would suggest very few people were waiting for payday to secure seats The data on Thursday will be interesting if they do start allowing people to move seats and previously held tickets are released

543 Arsenal tickets sold in the last 2 days, 9405 tickets now available

So the Joelinton hype is over A massive 48 season tickets have been sold in the last 2 days! Just over 11k season tickets still available in the 'public' areas

330 now Ill do a another update later this evening with another 2 days of data

There is a 20 min window when you can have tickets in your basket and they take them offline for everyone else. Its possible you last looked when someone had a few in their basket but didnt buy

The ticket sales for Arsenal are more depressing. I only started collecting sales data after the Joelinton signing was announced but since then 1541 tickets have been sold. A lot of very short term memory amongst our fans...

Quick update from the stats I posted earlier In the 7 days since i started collecting data (18th - 25th) 423 season tickets have been sold, over half of those have been sold in the two days since Joelinton signed (23rd). Half of the tickets sold since Joelinton arrived have been in Level 7 (Family area and Milburn/Leazes corner) DISCLAIMER - It is possible that more tickets have been sold in this period even though the available totals might not reflect this. The reason for this is that the club may have released tickets held by ST holders who have let their DD lapse

Apologies was out at a golf match all day Last Thursday I pulled the total available seats from the ST sales portal and did the same on Tuesday night (5 full days). Of the tickets available to the public the difference was only 195 18th July 23rd July Difference East Stand 991 986 5 Gallowgate/East Corner 243 246 -3 Gallowgate End 2175 2161 14 Milburn Stand 2259 2165 94 Milburn/Leazes Corner 2278 2224 54 Leazes End 2048 2020 28 Leazes/East Corner 904 901 3 Total 10898 10703 195 Not available to public 2721 1797 924 I will be doing the same again tonight which will give an additional two days of data and cover the 'Joelinton factor' EDIT Im also monitoring the ticket sales for Arsenal (#boycottarsenal) and will post about that in the coming days too
