Expect on all renewals. They are trying to deal with a huge number of touts infiltrating the system
We challenged hard on this and agree. We did secure some safeguards. It will only apply to two possible games (qf and sf). And wonβt be expanded for at least 2 years

AST AAB submission Feb, 2024. Very pleased to see action will now be taken. Done effectively this will increase ballot success for red members and remove bots from the Ticket Exchange
'We cannot understand why the club still allows anyone to take out a new red membership without applying any ID verification. A policy that sees a red member banned for touting on Monday but allowed to buy another on Tuesday is clearly defective and needs addressing urgently'

We would remind the club of its important role as a community institution and stress that any changes to the stadium layout must ensure no loss of space allocated for general admission ticket pricesβ 2/2
On Emirates stadium: βIt is right that Arsenal are reviewing all their options. Every week there is huge demand to watch the team play. They should ensure they consult with fans on any firm plans. 1/2

At the Fans Europe Conference. Speaking about the challenges the ever increasing match calendar is putting on both players (welfare) and fans (costs)
Full motion on regulating agents attached here. It was great to have support from across the football supporters community with other seconders including @MCFCfoodbank, @Wolves1877T, @NFFCTrust
Agent fees β time for football to act.

Arsenal are sending season ticket renewal reminders. Please note it wonβt auto renew. You have to select your choice and pay - and this year there is the choice to take a 19 game Premier League ST only.
Renewals will begin week of 26 May #Arsenal
Today we requested that Arsenal join us in challenging PSG's disregard for the 5% away allocation rules - costing us and other visiting clubs 400 tickets - with UEFA theguardian.com/football/202...

That was seriously impressive!
A big night in the Champions League - best of luck to the team and let's return with a positive result!
The most shameful day for the United States of America in any of our lifetimes.
Of course another Cat A price for PSV. That's AABBB just to get to R16 for matches that have hardly been thrilling so far. UEFA will step in and PSV fans pay less than Arsenal as the prices breach their cap. Too dear even for UEFA! #StopExploitingLoyalty
& we fully endorse this analysis:
"Given the additional revenue to be earned from expanded Champs Lge & difficulties experienced by most fans in cost of living crisis, the hope is there will be no increase next season, especially after Liverpoolβs recent decision to freeze prices"
This is an excellent summary of Arsenal's financial position. We fully recommend a subscription to the Swiss Ramble substack not only for the Arsenal coverage but comprehensive financial analysis across football
They will have funds to invest. But not an open wallet. If you want really big spending then may well need a significant sale
Arsenal's financial results for 2023/24 can be read here.
Big increases in revenue reported (a record Β£616m) but also big increases in wage bill (Β£327m) and player costs result in small loss(Β£17m) being reported.

Arsenal should report financial results before end of Feb. Here is our analysis of recent years & 2024 forecast. Expectations are for a big jump in income (Champs Lge) and the large losses will reduce to a small loss - largely due to increasing wage bill.

Liverpool announce NO price increases for next season. www.liverpoolfc.com/news/lfc-fre... Liverpoolβs business model is similar to Arsenal. If they can forego an increase so can our club. AST has made this case in meetings with AFC & hope they will respect the fans loyalty to Mikel and the team
When fans unite, they get results. This freeze shows our arguments β and those of fellow Supporters' Board members β were heard.
Our work continues, as does the #StopExploitingLoyalty campaign with @thefsa.bsky.social
