@afc_richard I missed out on 49 credits (sold out at 50) and yeah it’s galling given 40% of the allocation was kept back
I understand players families getting tickets, but there were some proper hangers on and leeches in the place
Depends, on what’s more important to you
Atmosphere - Horatia, Highbury Barn, Famous Cock
Viewing quality - One of the sports bars
Proximity - Tollington, Horatia, Gunners, Bank of Friendship, 181
Slightly further but vibes - Clissold Tavern, Yucatan, Army and Navy
Ring ahead / check socials for ticketing as it will be mayhem
This is a man called Danny Bassett - I don’t have a better picture of him. I didn’t even know his second name until recently.
He stood a couple of rows behind me at the Emirates. Always topless and always bringing the energy. We’d hug when we scored and shake hands and have a quick chat if we won.
Beyond that, we didn’t know each other at all, but he was part of my Arsenal experience for close to a decade.
Danny died suddenly last summer and he didn’t get to experience this season. I thought about him a lot today. I hope you enjoyed it mate. You’re missed.
@HartleyGunner I wasn’t at the game where they handed out the printout, but my mate sent me it and I was in bits.
Say hello in August and let’s sneak a pint in for him.
@NorthBankB9@crisp5019 I missed that first one back after the summer
My mates texted me the news from the flyer - was gutting
Let’s do it again for the first home game
