Probably various things, but due to the prices they charged they have priced out a lot of locals over the years, so initiatives like this are going the right way.

Its probably the same for Man U - a worldwide fanbase means that they can charge a premium for tickets (in the north), but doesnt help for lots of locals.

we have a different outlook! flog as many season tickets as you can get the money in, in June if not late May for the following season, claim the interest on 60000 season tickets lock all ST holders into Automatic cup scheme too, open up membership on June 1st for remaining tickets put these on sale as soon as fixtures announced except premium games.
When we get midweek league Europa cup match then offer tickets to local schools claiming to be thinking of locals but really its a case of not being able to shift tickets!

although we haven't had a price increase for 4 season on ST but match day tickets have.

Ill call it early that you'll sign none of those. But one or two more with potential.

Realistically how many do you really expect to be playing for you next year. One at most?

I think one will have to happen we've lost Welbeck for half the season so Wenger needs to do something. He showed with Vardy bid that he is serious about getting a someone in , just a matter of who and when.

Lacazette is looking the most likely. The one I definitely cant see happening is Higuain. too expensive for Wenger and he is getting on a bit.

Easy statement, "none of the above"!

As normal you'll sign some little known French African youngster with potential, no doubt Wenger will improve him but then the player will move on to win things 😜😂

Arsenal showed they were happy to pay a relatively low buy out clause and have made no big signings since that attempt failed.

If they are serious then it seems no one wants to join so far.

Stokie - Why on earth would you want him? His attitude has stunk for 2-3 years now. I get he has talent but part of team building is getting the right type of person.

Yes mate but if the players heart is not in it or if he ( or agent) is demanding too much money then what can you do? I said before Wenger will not sign someone because he happens to win the player over by money alone. Recipe for disaster.

his attitude has stunk because West Brom have forced him to stay, no player that wants away is ever going to be happy are they?

He's an out and out goalscorer, something that we've not had since joining the Premiership and an area we've always lacked in.

Arnautovic's attitude apparently was awful when he joined and look how that's ended up for us.
