Have you caught McVicar?s production of Die Zaberflote at the Garden yet? Magnificent. Pass the Burgundy.....

Very kind season ticket holder. Let me know where you are sitting and I will give you a wave.

Depending on where you are sitting tickets normally from ?40 - ?100

I enjoyed it all the same LadyG. I'd forgotten how seriously some fans take things....one overheated guy near me was bouncing up and down in his seat saying he was going to sue the club and "bring his boots for a game next time".


The Monaco ultras were quite impressive too....


The Emirates though - amazing ground, amazing pitch but can't help feeling it lacks some atmosphere compared to the old Highbury which I went to once as a kid. It has a sort of NFL American corporate feel about it?

I hope you remembered to point that out MrB. Although I think its par for the course at most grounds, Arsenal may be slightly worse.


The only trouble with the old Highbury was the football was sh1t. :)

    • You can get a card at the till, though, to get the discount. You don't have to carry it with you (or load it onto your phone), you can just get a different card each time. Not sure what happens if they notice 🤣
    • Yes..that may be the case but membership STARTING at £115 a month is still unafforable for many. Council gyms also have a large range of equipment and I had a  PT at Dulwich leisure centre when I was in Full Time employment who was incredible and even kept in contact during lockdown giving me a program I could do at home and checking in weekly at no charge or personal gain for herself. I dont doubt that Fit For may be a good gym (Its been in situ long enough so must be doing something right) However the cost of membership means it is affordable for the few not the many. If I could afford that kind of fee I would rather get a train to Canary Wharf and go to Virgin active where theres a pool and incredible classes and facilities 
    • This sounds great 👍 
    • We found a red TREK bike yesterday that had clearly been stolen and dumped. Would love to reunite it with its owner. Get in touch if you know whose it is.
