Nice one mate.

Were you on a waiting list?

I applied for one with 2 seats together, but unsure what happens next. Been to pretty much every game over the last few years, but a ST would save some money for sure.
Well, I have an outstandign offer of my own ST whcih I got for this season and deferred. I will get offered it again but most liekly have to turn it down again and lose my palce This one is somebody elses but he is moving abroad for a year but wants to keep the membership. which works perfectly for me as in a yera i expect to alos move abroad. if you take a ST then dont renew you lose your entire membership. Im currently tier 3 (Red) member and SHOULD have received an upgrade this season but its going to be at least another year (lying bastards!) so this will help int he emantime. the upgarde gives you guaranteed access to every home game in the lower tier msotly so is basically a ST without the commitment.

Ben, Ive only been on the waiting list since 2006 and got offered last season.


Sounds like a right confusing process!

I've been on the list at Anfield since 2008, however i've seen people get them sooner than me. Must be due to wanting a double seat. In 2011 they closed the list, and currently as it stands, nobody can apply. Here's to hoping i'll be offered 14/15 season. What did you pay if you don't mind me asking? Average LFC ST is £750 with all cup games included.
£1075 - 19 league games + 7 cup credits, £40 refund per cup game not played

How does the red to silver upgrade work? Ive been a red member for ages now.
25000 max silver memebrs. entry by order of red memebrship only (so doesnt matter if you bought a red 8 years ago to go to one game, you coudl be upgraded to silver if you took it up). im 7,000th in queue (after beign told i was ELEVENTH last season) so lookign at another 2 years probs. call up member servcies and they'll tell you. I took red membership halfway through the last highbury season ie Jan 2006, to give you an idea.

I was on the list from back in the Highbury days. I'd been on a fair few years when we moved to the Emirates so thought i'd be in with the bigger capacity but it was several years later, just after we'd moved back up North from Milton Keynes Didn't get option to defer either I don't think.

Couldn't justify it back then as I was still working weekends so would have hardly got to any games. I'm buying this time round whenever that is. Still might not get to many but fuck it. I can get rid via ticket exchange??

I think my red membership has been upgraded to Silver for next season tho, as i've had advance notice of a £55 DD coming out which is Full Silver????

Prices have probably gone up.

Lfc's season tickets have gone up nearly £100 and an earlier payment request. Bad really, considering.

guaranteed access basically, you will always get a seat if you want plus earlier which usually equates to lower tier which means cheaper, better atmosphere and better view

I've not been to 1 game this season. Poor even for me and the distance.

I've also lost Blackburn, Bolton, Wigan away games too which were guarenteed tickets for a Red member.

Definatley coming to Emirates next season a few times.

Hopefully might get chance at United/Liverpool away too etc for tickets as a Silver??


Tbh tho, as a member of Arsenal Manchester Suporters Club I can pretty much get tickets to any home game anyway for good prices including minibus travel.

Silver has no away rights, unless not enough people want to go (ie for you, Stoke)

@arsenal_tickets is best for away matches

Fucking hell, do you need to walk about with 1 leg of your trousers up and shake the security guards hand in a certain way as you go in to the Emirates?

Suppose it's not that complicated for a team winning things year in and year out
