So you want to visit Highbury

[Grateful Gooner]

Thanks again for the advice Jeff. I'm going to check with my friend Steve, who'll be travelling with me, to see what he would like to do. Whatever we decide, I'll let you know, so I can make arrangements to get tickets. Even if I only get to go to one Arsenal match, that's one more than I've been to now!

Jeff, thanks so much for getting this tix thread rolling. When the Arsenal America Hall of Fame is erected, you will be part of the inaugural class.

My dream vacation is to take a trip across the pond and catch an Arsenal match. Thanks for posting this as I may call on you for some tickets......I pray.

I MUST visit Highbury before the recking ball turns it into a parking lot. My friend G. Rex has photos of his trip there and as I type I am drooling .....still.

Just wanted to let everyone know that Jeff got me fantastic tickets in the North Bank for Arsenal-Man. City. Many thanks to Jeff!!

ERIKA, Have you got your dates sorted out for the trip in November. Arsenal have two "big games" in the space of 7 days both at home against Newcastle and Spurs on the 9th and 16th November. I have 2 spare tickets for each game. If you are coming around then, and want them, then just let me know. JEFF.

One thing you should remember about ticketmaster is the ship to credit card address problem. Ticketmaster.co.uk will only ship to the address on your credit card, and with some tickets only becoming available at the last minute, this is a problem for American fans who might be over for a week or so before a game (tickets cross in the mail while you're on the plane).

We've raised this with Arsenal as a problem for US fans, and they said they are looking at it. I'm hoping that they'll find a solution for overseas folks.

Jeff,
Thanks so much! See you in Nov. I can't wait. Now to get some plane tickets!

Just wanted to thank Jeff again. I had a great time across the pond and thanks to Jeff was able to see Kanu save the day with a lovely touch in injury time.
The tickets in the north bank were so good I think that you may have converted to non-football-believers into two Arsenal football fans. My two friends were so impressed with the atmosphere and the play that they say they will start to watch some football and of course cheer for the best. They were right down there near the game winner from Kanu.
Thanks again. Now to save up for another trip.

I am new to the board, but this Jeff character is really quite the miracle worker. I just moved back from London and being a die hard Gooner, I tried to beg, borrow, and steal my way into as many games as possible. Let me tell you, it was not easy. I was able to see a bunch of games, but most that I saw, were when someone could not make the game and I would have to make a mad-dash across London to pick up a ticket and then on to Highbury (made it into my seat for the Arsenal v. Aston Villa game exactly at Kick-off on a Sunday after putting in a 100 work week and was kicking myself when they went 2-nil down but was thrilled to have the toothless yob behind me kissing my head when we came back to win 3-2 - best sporting event I have ever been to - including my beloved Bulls Championships)
So, just want all the yanks that have Jeff's magical work at their disposal to really appreciate just how hard it is to get a ticket!!!!!

Jeff,

I wrote you back in August when I was looking for two tickets to the December 29th match against Liverpool. You told me you would be in America at the time. I was wondering if there was something we could work out were I could send you the money in Britain for the cost of the seats and then send them to me here in the states. I hope you still have some available. Thanks for all your help.

Cheers,

Scott Boice

SCOTT, The tickets don't go on sale until the end of this month, and it might also be by postal application only as it is considered a "Grade A" game, but I am still reasonably hopeful. Get back to you early Nov. JEFF.

[boice19]

Thanks for your help Jeff. Talk to you soon.

Jeff,

Saw your post about getting tickets for an Arsenal match and must say you're a godsend. My girlfriend and I are travellling to England and Ireland over the Christmas holidays to visit her family and will be in London from December 19-23 and would love to get 2 tickets to the Middlesbrough game on the Dec. 22nd. Is this possible?

Thanks so much.

Charlie: Sure, no problem. Just keep in touch a little nearer the time. JEFF.

[UVaGooner]

Thanks Jeff, will do!

Charlie

[Jeff L]

Charlie: I have 2 tickets for you for the Middlesborough game.

[UVaGooner]

Thanks Jeff! We arrive in London the day before the game, December 20. I'll e-mail you separately to give you all of our details.

"BOICE 19" Scott. I've got you 2 tickets in the North Bank for the game against Liverpool. Get in touch nearer the time to work out arrangements. JEFF.

Let me know what you need from me.
