visiting supporters off.

To visit The Emirates as an away fan for every league game, it would cost you £747. To visit every away ground as an Arsenal supporter would cost you £838. Erm hang on, I thought we were the ones ripping away fans visiting our place off?!? For 13 grounds we visit, we are charged more than we charge their away fans. For 6 games, we charge more than they charge us when we visit them.

In full detail, Emirates price first, away price second.
Sunderland £25.50 £39.00
Southampton £25.50 £38.00
Chelsea £62.00 £59.00
QPR £35.50 £50.00
Fulham £35.50 £45.00
Spuds £62.00 £54.00
Swansea £25.50 £45.00
West Brom £25.50 £39.00
Newcastle £35.50 £36.00
Man City £62.00 £51.00
West Ham £35.50 £49.00
Liverpool £62.00 £48.00
Stoke £35.50 £40.00
Aston Villa £35.50 £45.00
Everton £35.50 £37.00
Reading £25.50 £40.00
Norwich £25.50 £50.00
Man Utd £62.00 £45.00
Wigan £35.50 £28.00

Maybe we should adopt a pricing policy whereby we charge away fans what their clubs charge us? I make it we will be £273,000 better off over the season as a result. That could pay for Theo's wages whilst he is on holiday...

What did you think of Simon Jordan's book in the end?

FA and players agents. Shame there aren't more like him I think the game would be better off for it.
