Good afternoon and welcome to just one of the alternatives to spending £62 to go and watch Manchester City play at Arsenal in the away end. The build up to the game has been dominated by City sending back nearly 1000 of the 3000 tickets their travelling fans were allotted, those fans clearly reluctant to fork out such a fee to watch their side play a team who they've failed to beat away from home since 1975.
£62! Plus rail fare, petrol and all the rest. Just imagine what else you could spend £62 on, rather than watching Manchester City attempt to shake off the hoodoo that means they haven't scored at The Emirates for six years. For £62 you can, according to the chaps at the Manchester Evening News, get 40 lagers, 40 bitters, six litres of cider, a bottle of Scotch and two bottles of wine, and still have change for tabs and a pie. For £62, you can buy a complete set of Pokemon Fossil cards, or some pink fancy bridal shoes or, for the fruitier minded, a leather corset grill top bustier basque. Surely a better option than watching Edin Dzeko hope the ball bounces off his head somewhere interesting.
Jeez, these Arsenal rip off merchants, abusing the humble football fan, ripping them off left, right and centre. It's not the sort of thing that would happen in Manchester, they'd never think of charging £62 for tat. Not for them expecting the the football fan to fork out for stuff simply because of their loyalty to the club. Oh.
