Good morning Tom, viewers đ¤
Itâs a call for stadium expansion
Tom not knowing who Pearl Jam are: "Tell me you are under the age of 30 without telling me you are under the age of 30".
actually probably more like "under the age of 40" is more accurate but you don't look that old Tom.
Can anyone go to the open training sessions or is it only media
arsenal has the highest "least expensive" season ticket
Tom is too young to know about pearl jam 𤣠haha
KSE strikes again.
Based on how Sambi is getting on at Luton. I wouldn't be quick to sell this summer, depending on his contract, I think I'd be more willing to loan him again. His shown there is a player there, if Luton manages to stay up (Everton, Forest point deduction could help that) leave him there again maybe. I don't see his at a level yet to get in our team but 1 more season who knows.
Haha everyone is still trying to flog tickets for the Wenger shirt, they might have to give them away.
is it possible for Arsenal to develop an over flow area where fans can watch on a screen
Buying more players equals higher priced tickets lol
Great show â¤
Honestly, as a consumer, I believe there are very few situations where there would be NO (or nominal) complaints around ticket price increases. I think the breakdown here is sound. The only misstep here is probably the senior (season?) ticket pricing being removed.
It would be interesting, though, to see what merchandise and match day concessions prices are going to be. What staff wages might be. And, if community work / spend takes a dip.
Don't worry Tom, I am 37 and I thought pearl jam was an event in the X Games
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, lol!

âoh dear, itâs all goin downhillâ â tom, c. 2024
Harsh truth – attending sports events is a form of entertainment, not a right. Itâs not an expense like food, shelter, or a govât provided utility. Supporting a club is ultimately a discretionary expense, meaning no one can force you to spend money on it. If it becomes too expensive we have to reexamine what we can afford, and usually discretionary expenses are the first to get trimmed from personal budgets. Btw, wonder how much club has lost from exponentially inflated tickets sold outside the exchanges, especially in last 18 months⌠and where did all those tickets come from initially – ticket holders
Yo Tom!!! Raining some more in California this morning âď¸. Flood warnings all over, but no worries here.
Come on, its sheer greed, call it for what it is
When will players have a care about the rising ticket prices? Will they lessen their wage demands to help their teams fans? I doubt it. On top of that man city isnât going to stop paying over the odds for big name players.
Mate. No Pearl Jam – unsubscribed.
Come on Tom, Pearl Jam is a classic, man! But thereâs your like đ
Thanks for the show brother.
Cheers from Florida.
In the U.S., in 1960, a McDonaldâs Hamburger cost about 15 cents, while today, that same burger would cost you about $2.49.
You can count on paying more for everything in the future Tom.
You can count on death, taxes, and increasing costs for every bloody thing, including ticket prices!!!
