Does that mean we will get reduced ticket prices by 2.5% as from Monday..If so that will be an average of 2.50 for every 100 spent.....

Not enough for a beer...But it covers your monthly subscription to The Gooner and 50p in your skyrocket........

Excellent

Bet this will encourage Arsenal to pass on the 2.5% cut... to themselves!

Cutting the vat rate is all very well but it needed to be done along with legislation instructing retail outlets etc. to reduce prices in accordance with the cuts. Many outlets will simply leave prices the same and increase their margin. I think the top people such as M&S, Next, Arcadia Group etc. will reduce prices but outside of that top sector nothing will change.
I absolutely gaurantee you that Arsenal will not reduce ticket prices in line with the cut. I don't think there is a club in the country that will.
