Not yourself, my lad, with your degree, but the other one.

£10 lower tier, £20 upper tier, i presume prices are the same for Bolton fans - though really you should pay more to watch the mighty Arsenal ;)

Is everyone going to sit together or get tickets seperately?

It's £10 in our end. You'll need to sort that accent out though if you want to fit in.

Get yersen to Big Red, dubbins.
am I right in thinking they only sell lager and Guinness (no proper beer?)

Big Red's about 10 minutes walk from the ground. They sell John Smiths and a couple of other bitters as well as Hoogarden (sp). Drayton Arms is okay as it's opposite the away end but the jukebox is superb in Big Red.

Nearest tubes Drayton Arms - Arsenal (Gillespie Road) Station
Big Red - Holloway Road

Not bothered which, as long as Brucie's buying.
Errr, anyone know which one's the cheapest then? :(

well, if it helps anyone to decide not to come, I'm planning be there.

GG owes me a pint ... or two. Plus I lost Bruce last time I was at a footy match in London .... oddly JUST as he said "I think it's my round next".

I'm also looking forward to seeing how Mummy gets into THIS one without paying and how far GtE has to go for his ticket, plus to see if Miss Bish has finished that blessed book yet !

If anyone's buying group tickets let me know.

I think Bruce is getting mine (that deals with both of those points then :mrgreen: ).

That's true (as was that particular claim).. but I hadn't paid for them in the first place!

Whilst it would be lovely to sit amongst you all i fear a lot of piss taking should we lose.. You'll have to be gentle. I'm not very optimistic about this one..

Bish - care to 'unblock' me, or whatever it is that you have on that prevents me sending you PM's? I'm trying to sort the tickets out for us all. Ta.
