EPL Tickets

by Rafiki • 2 Sep 2009, 10:03 • Journals
Morning lads,

Someone knows how easy/difficult it is to get tickets for a English PL game for a Non-UK'r ?
I want to visit London in November (though not certain) and I'd love to see a game over there (together with 3 mates)
Preferably Arsenal (Belgium Thomas Vermaelen) but Fulham, Chelsea would be 2nd choice.
I'm willing to pay up to plusminus 100€ for a game so anyone has experience with all this or is it almost impossible for me? Yes, i can read some info on their websites but i want to know from people that already tried it before how they handled it.

Greetz,
Rfki

Its gonna be REALLY hard for Arsenal or Chelsea, but Fulham you shouldnt have as many problems with. Chelsea for example you need to be a member of True Blue to even buy a ticket.

Try seatwave.com or viagogo.co.uk they're your best bets.

Bolox - them there plastic souless shitbowls killing football. They're stadia not stadiums - Stamford Bridge is a proper stadium – give me piss stained walls, restricted views ‘n 1 hour ques for a warm diluted pint anyday.

Still pieces of the chelski scoreboard in Leeds hands (: want it back Mr Bates?

Well when you're in the most expensive part of London its VERY hard to get extra room for expansion - when you're in a shithole like Manchester its nice and easy :) (but I like stamford bridge)

Ring the club & explain the situation, know of a few Danish whites that've got tickets that way (jumping the que). But toss is right in that most places demand you're a member before they'll even let you consider buying a ticket (allegedly to combat footy hooliganism).

Looking at their fixtures you're probably best going for one of the two home CL games, as they'll be more tickets going (don't think they include season ticket holders? [was always possible to get a seat booked early enough back in the day]) - evening matches always the best atmosphere ^^

If not, there's always touts or find an Arsenal supporting xf'r - or alternatively, try an Arsenal forum.

Will keep those CL matches in mind but it's probably not even close to a England vs England game :(

The only Arsenal game you will have any chance of going to in November would be Sunderland away. Should be able to buy tickets for that off the website.

For home games you're best bet is to go to some of the local pubs on matchday and ask around but you'd be unlikely to get 4 together and you might not get any!

Or try and ask here:

It is very easy to go to the matches of Arsenal and Chelsea. I did and lemme explain my pro way, you all need to do is

1. go to the stadium before the match

2. wonder around near the places where they sell the tickets

3. look around to see if some1 seeling their ticket, even cheaper than the original. ALWAYS WORKS
