Gunners freeze ticket prices

Arsenal have become the latest Barclays Premiership club to announce they will not be increasing ticket prices next season.

It will be the third successive campaign that the club have frozen their charges for matchday and season-ticket prices.

The Gunners also say they will actively pursue a policy of reducing prices for Carling Cup matches at the Emirates Stadium next season.

Managing director Keith Edelman told Arsenal TV Online: “We are delighted that our ticket prices will be frozen for next season.

“We have regular consultation with our supporters and ticket prices are always mentioned as a key concern.

“Therefore, we are proud that our prices have now remained constant for three seasons and have also stayed in line with those at Highbury, even though our new home is a world-class venue offering our supporters an enviable range of new facilities.”

Arsenal are also planning a season ticket buy-back scheme for early next season, in which season-ticket holders can sell individual match tickets through the club if they are not using them for a particular match.
