Club Level takes Gooners to dizzy new heights

DESPITE a reported crowd of 60,000 plus at the Emirates Stadium, there were empty seats in evidence on Saturday, most of which were in the astronomically priced Club Level.

Mind you Club Level costs aren’t even close to the obscenely priced Diamond Class, where 160 high-rollers pay nearly £500 (€745) a match, or £25,000 a season for a pair of seats, with exclusive access to the Michelin-starred grub in the Raymond Blanc Restaurant.

Nevertheless, considering it costs the 7,000 Club Level punters anything from £100 to £175 a game, you’d imagine they’d be taking their sleeping bags.
