It's pretty shameful the court decided against us, I've read that other clubs are hosting double the concerts we do, so why are we different?


Because we are surrounded by high rise housing so the local residents need to be considered too.


Complaining about free live music, who are the these people?

We have concerts at the big Park near me. I don't mind through the day but on a night the music/thumping is really annoying. Its a five minute walk from my house and I can hear it.

Would love it if the emirates could get to 70/80,000, i think we'd easily fill it.

This needs to happen.

More people would be able to watch us and hopefully we'd ameliorate the distance between the fans and pitch.


Slight issue, Arsenal only hold a safety certificate for 60,000. Any more and they'd need to improve the infrastructure (Holloway road tube) before they'd be allowed to expand.


f***ing get it done then. Were charging £2,000 a ticket. Another 20,000 season tickets is £40m per season (plus ll the hotdogs and drinks etc)

£40m give London Underground/Council £50m each and everyone's happy


Arsenal's board would probably support that, providing they don't have to use the clubs money to pay for it.
