Just curious as to how many of the final 19 league season matches at Highbury will have at least one big soccer or aresenal america member in the stands.
post the matches you have or will attend and lets see if we can cover them all, I know Chelsea, ManUtd, and Wigan will be tough tickets... though I can make the sacrafice and try to attend these if no one else can.
for me:
Sunderland

For me it's:
12/28 P'mouth and 1/3 ManU.
I think Bighorn andseveral others will be there as well. Who's all coming for the Christmas Holidays?

I am not going to make it to Highbury this season... crap... yea right! But, if I do make it over I bet you I will decide at the last of the season... drunk! Get a late BA flight to London and pay a tout 200 quid for the ticket... and if my girlfriend wants to go too!!!

Well there are a few season ticket holders round here, so there should be at least one BigSoccer member at every home game anyway. The only one it looks like I'll miss this season is at home to Aston Villa on 1st April as I'll be at a wedding (damn Liverpool fans getting married during the season!). I am really hoping that when the TV schedule comes out for after Christmas this turns into a Monday night game.

I am hoping to attend either the Villa or West Brom matches. Need to find out my chances for tickets and then book airfare accordingly.

If you are going to be in London during the end of the month, I would love to join up with you and whoever else is around for a pint. Will be in London around the same time and in the heart of Arsenal country so, I'll probably be at a Arsenal friendly pub watching the Spurs away.

I'll arrive on 12/28 for the Pompey match and will also travel to the 12/31 match at Villa. Still crossing fingers for a ticket to the ManUre match, though.
Also going with a friend to the Rotherham at Tranmere match on Jan. 2nd.

I don't think it should be too hard to get Pompey home tickets. I know Rick has at least 12-14 requests, so that could be the issue. Worse case scenario, you show up at The Arsenal Tavern and see if someone comes up with an extra or two. Last time I was there it seemed like a few last minute tickets became available for people. Just avoid the Touts if at all possible.
I'm going to Boxing Day at Charlton, Pompey home, Villa away and Man U home, fitting 4 in each only a couple of days apart. Should be a good trip. Living in SoCal I might freeze my ass off over there, but I'll deal with it.
