Unfortunately my jerkwad cousin didn't renew our Silver membership, so I am SOL. I need to be an ArseAm member, correct?
I have some other friends to help with tickets so I may not take these up, but I will try to give at least a month to six weeks' notice in order to let someone else have a fair go at them.
I may also make other requests during the season as I will be in the UK full-time. I will try to give you notice well in advance.

Man U is now sold out.
Please no more requests for that. I am not 100% I can deal with all those already as there are a few. I will let everyone know in due course. All others will be fine.
Remember to plan for date changes when booking travel and please note I am English and therefore the year doesn´t have 27 months. Please make it easier for me when giving the date. Themore work you do when doing your request means the more requests I can deal with......................

Guys,
I am going to be patient as it's both your first times at requesting...............but the way to do it is not really that hard and you can see how the others have done it. I really don't have time to disect every post on here with questions..................
Aphex
You need to be a little more specific as well. For example your second choice is Chelsea home and you have said you want CL as well. Have you looked at the dates for CL? Do you know if it is away on the Tues for example you would have to come to London on the Monday which would mean a lot more days off work. Your first choice is fine as I have room for Spurs. But if you want Chelsea and the CL game before it I can do that as well. Just go with whichever option you want, but make sure the dates are viable for you.
Sorry to do this, but having done this stuff for a while, I need definates. Many people say "get me tickets to any game and I'll come over". I am afraid thats not how it works and not how I work this!!
Rick,
Sorry about the confusion man. I was under the impression that I would only get tickets for one game. If I am able to get more than one set of tickets, let me change my preferences:
I would go to these two matches in one trip to England:
1st Choice: Arsenal v Tottenham (at Emirates), Dec. 22
2nd Choice: Portsmouth v Arsenal (at Portsmouth), Dec. 26
For a second trip to England:
1st Choice: Arsenal v Liverpool (at Emirates), April 5th
2nd Choice: Home leg of Champions League Match on April 1st or 8th
*If I cannot get tickets for either or these trips,
I would like tickets for:
Arsenal Champions League Match, Dec. 11
Arsenal v Chelsea (at Emirates), Dec. 15
2 tickets required for each match
(Club, but if not then Normal)
I hope those details help,
Nick

Sorry to jump in but...
http://www.arsenalamerica.com/ticketing/
All the information you need is there. If you read that you will see that only Arsenal America members are eligible for tickets, so if your friends haven't signed up and paid their membership fees they won't be eligible for tickets via Arsenal America. Obviously the only way to get around this is by getting your friends to sign up and pay their membership fees.
All the information you need is available on that link I posted. I've seen first hand the amount of work Rick does with regards to tickets so just make it as painless as possible for him. Once the link goes live get your friends to register and pay their dues, then once you've done this post the usernames in this thread along with the specific matches you want to go to and the number of tickets for each match. Makes it as easy as possible for Rick to access the information when the time comes.

Rick,
I really apologize for all these alterations. Things have come up that were not forseeable when I made my first ticket request, and they have required me to give up the four tickets to Derby, home, in September. Instead, if I could get one ticket for Reading away (I should be fairly close being at Royal Holloway in Egham, depending on how you want to do transportation).
So, to recap, the total requests are now:
Tottenham Away (Sep. 15) x1, West Ham Away (Sep. 29) x1, Sunderland Home (Oct. 6) x1, Bolton Home (Oct. 20) x2, Liverpool Away (Oct. 27) x1, Man Utd Home (Nov. 3) x2, Reading Away (Nov. 10) x1, Wigan Home (Nov. 24) x1, Chelsea Home (Dec. 15) x1.
All Normal Level.
You had after about the first 10 original posts or so that all requests were fine so far, so I guess I'm just wondering about the second ticket to Bolton home and the one to Reading away.
Again, I'm terribly sorry because I know that you have lots of stuff going on with requests, but I hope this all makes sense. Like everyone, I really appreciate the effort you go to to ensure that we can go to matches.
Thanks!

If it matters: Bringing my family to London for their 1st time, we've been Gooners for a long time, planned the trip around the EPL season openers, desperately hoping to get tickets.....wish we had known about ArsenalAmerica sooner!
Sons are 7 & 9, I coach their teams, and their trainer was a schoolboy w/ Arsenal during the 70's. This is the chance of a lifetime for them! They have all of my souveniers from my 1st visit to Highbury in 93 (saw Queens Park Rangers). Been a supporter ever since.

Fulham is now out since it has been moved to Sunday. I'm still waiting for confirmation that I have a ride up to Blackburn from Cardiff, so don't order tickets for that yet.
EDIT: Just got confirmation for Blackburn, so I'm definitely going.

Normal or Club Level - Will take whatever I can get, would rather have Club.
I am not a premium member right now because I can not figure out how to pay the fee (could someone point me in the right direction?), but I will send in the money for myself and my buddy's account as soon as it opens up. Hopefully it's not too late for Fulham tickets as I will be in London on 8/11 and it would be a dream of mine to see an Arsenal match as I've never been out of the US. I've been an Arsenal supporter for a few years now and it would mean the world to me if I could catch a match while I'm over there. I will definitely be in London from the morning on 8/11 to 8/14. I can pay the memberships and ticket fees right away through paypal or whatever.
Thank you so much.
