Evening all.

Just wondering, could a silver member become a member of the away scheme or is it the same system as a season ticket at the emirates.

Ive been a silver member for about four years and on the season ticket waiting list which i fear ill never get the chance to get one. Also how much does it cost to become a member and how does the system work.

Thanks Rik

I'm not 100% sure, but I beleive there is no waiting list, you just join at the start of the season.
I think as a member of the scheme you commit to buy a ticket for every away league match for that season. You don't pay it all upfront, just as the tickets are put on sale. I don't think you are obliged to buy cup/champs leaugue tickets, but you do get priority if you want them.
As I said, I'm not completely sure about that, I think I read about it here a while back. Maybe someone can confirm.

You have to be a gold or travel club or indeed platinium member. They posted a while ago that they were no longer accepting new people on the scheme. However on Wednesday I returned two renewal forms stating I would not be renewing. So I would give the box office a ring if you really want to commit yourself.

away scheme is automatic tickets to league & fa cup rounds bar replays sent as and when tickets arrive at arsenal and paid for by credit/debit card upon sending out. Also get first priority on other matches but the vast majority 99% are easy to obtain tickets for anyway.
