Sure if more money comes in from the TV side they can at least freeze prices of match tickets? Always just seems to go up even when the teams are making more money.

pinkeye Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I just joined the queue. Almost 7000 people ahead of me and close to an hour wait. I only wanted to buy my three season ticket seats... haha... think if they are not available when I get to the front of the queue I might not bother...

PRL Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 We've gone from spending zero, to being the third highest net spenders in Europe over the last few transfer windows (https://www.football365.com/news/arsenal-dominate-top-ten-net-spenders-in-europe-since-2020-but-spurs-not-far-behind). Folk want the club ran sustainably, they want us to bolster the squad by another striker, RW and potentially CM on top of the above spend, plus they want tickets to stay at the same price as under Ashley while we have little / zero increase in corporate revenues while current deals expire and a bunch of deadwood tied to contracts for the next 12-24 months. Something has got to give somewhere along the line. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact is that despite how rich the owners are they still need to get as much money into the club as they possibly can, they're not missionaries who are giving tickets away for free. They've priced them slightly too high imo but it's barely worth getting upset about. They're trying to maximise revenue and I think they'll do that. Expand Yeah that's fair. Probably a fiver too much but it's clear we're investing in the squad. £35 for 2 games isn't ridiculous or owt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to be honest, match-going fans in the PL are a big part of the product. Especially our fans with all the fantastic work @Heron and the rest of Wor Flags do. But until some global-regulation or restriction on spending/finances comes in (which never will unfortunately), I don't see it changing. Whatever club has the most £ to spend will generally get the best players, and with this godawful FFP regulatory system in place, clubs are going to push every revenue stream available.
