Unfortunately it’s market forces, all the time away fans, in this case Arsenal, are prepared to pay £300 plus for corporate hospitality in ‘home areas’, there will always be potential issues at matches.
The 2 who where chucked out of swc said they paid 400 each

It’s almost like the club are happy to take the money while banning fans who turn up week in week out.
Yep. We seem to be quite happy to allow fans to transfer home tickets to opposition fans, yet you can’t transfer an away ticket if you can no longer go, meaning an empty seat

I reckon we’ve got hundreds of local MyAlbion+ members who are supporters of the big London clubs (in particular), knowing around £30 a year gets them the right to buy a ticket for their team’s game at the Amex. Add to that loads of our own buying ST guest tickets for their mates and it’s easy to see why we get so much of this. Very difficult to prevent……….

The inability to transfer an away ticket remains stupid.

It happens and it’s hard to prevent. Couple of young lads in front of me in the west upper celebrated the 2nd arsenal goal.

Dogs abuse and few slaps followed then stewards kicked them out

In fairness we are the ones that need saving from ourselves.

We got approached outside the ground by a bloke saying there were 8 of them and only 6 have tickets and could we buy them a guest ticket.
Told them to bugger off. Obviously Arsenal.

At least we won't have this problem for the next home game or the last game of the season, or the fixture that needs rearranging.

Several foreign Arsenal fans in the family stand in front of me. Kept a low profile.

Find it weird that groups without kids can buy tickets for that stand.

Unrelated, there’s lots of swearing in that section now. Even a prominently placed flag with a Seagull weeing on an Eagle. I’d be pretty peeved if my kids were still young.

If you sit by the away fans in our family zone then I’ve seen away fans make inappropriate gestures towards the family stand (including kids) - I really don’t think the family section should go right up to the away fans
