I've posted about this in the Arsenal thread before, but that can easily get lost so I'm asking for some help in this thread.

Heres the story:

I currently reside in New Zealand, a good old GMT+12 time zone where it is common to be up at 3am to watch football. I am visiting Europe for a short period during this winter around New Years and I am looking to goto the Arsenal vs West Ham game on New Years Day.

Ok, sounds easy enough until I think about it, London derby on New Years day, then I read about how the ticketing system works.

But I think I have an idea now, I've looked at the website and if you have official member it enables you to buy tickets to matches some 2 months before?

What I'm asking is that if anyone here has membership and knows they wont be attending, or if the case is that you can buy more than one ticket etc etc, is able to help me out here I will be very VERY grateful.

- arseanltops if you would like to follow up on your offer (if you remember or read this ) I would appreciate it.

Either please leave a message here if you would like to help out or email me (email in profile).

Thanks! Looking forward to the Grove (Hopefully not just a stadium tour!)

Have you tried contacting the box office directly.
They might well be quite helpful if you let them know your intentions and where you're coming from.

You never know you might even get your name in the programme.....

I'm sure they will be happy to offer him hospitality seats at a ridiculous price

I have tried to email Arsenal box office, but all I got was an automated response email saying they are quite busy etc etc.

Also I'ved noticed on premierleague.com on a couple of weekends that most games have tickets available through the website links except Arsenal's home games...is there a reason why? (Just plain sold out?)

Ok no worries! I think he's mentioned ironically that he will be in New Zealand the time I'm over there. So I don't know if he can

If we can work a way of getting you my ticket, you can have it, will you have a mobile phone with you?

retired_myjoyfulheartsings

I will I'm lookin at either getting a temporary sim for Europe or just global roam my current one and hope to not use it much.

Whats your plan Father?

Well obviously my ticket is being used by others while Im away, my mate is having Chelsea and Spurs, so you can have West Ham, youll just need to contact via mobile the lad I sit next to and arrange to meet him outside before the game.

£40 btw

That sounds simple enough, the money wont be a problem I guess the lad you sit next to would know you and the money can go through him?

This is fantastic thanks so much Father!
