Sounds like some good profits there.
IMO the biggest thing this shows is that you can run a top football team as a business and survive - its not something where you need sugar daddies.
Not sure how people can say about emtiest grounds. You have a look at the average attendance and I think you will find its much higher than most.
This year we have been in the 59/60K mark for every match while others such as Chelsea have not even got 30K through the doors!

Chelsea fans, for the most part at least, are only interested when their team are doing well. Teams like United, Arsenal, Liverpool and Newcastle get good attendances all the time.

Clubs outside of London cant get similar matchday revenues as you, its impossible.
And I dont think anyone is saying its never full, as it is, just full of people who think not coming up until the 55th minute and then leaving on the 80th min is the norm

Im just winding you lot up
Although it does seem the board have realised that offering more corporate seating, rather than - dare I say it - 'real fans' seating may mean more money but does effect the atmosphere that comes across.

That £3.1m will contain programme sales, and food and drink surely won't it?

I wonder how much revenue Match Day creates for CS?

Well if United sold all tickets at the cheapest price, for arguements sake, then that would generate £2.6m. So regardless of profit Arsenals figure would surely need to include consessions.
