FA Cup 3rd round draw

The club better not do that thing where the only way you can get a ticket is to go to a particular league game, which half the crowd abandon at half time to get into a gigantic queue. Surely something more technologically advanced is possible these days!

I am sure we did that very thing the last time we played Arsenal 20 years ago - a home game with Exeter IIRC on a freezing Saturday afternoon
just before Christmas 2002.We may have been near the top of L2 under Atkins but the home end emptied at HT.

If you went at half time, you probably didn't get a ticket - many, many people bought a match ticket and just got in the queue for when the Arsenal tickets went on sale at full time.
 
Luckily this game falls on my weekend off but I could with them announcing when the game is going to be played so I can book a hotel room.
 
Fantastic draw, might cheer up a few doomsters, and sell some half season tickets as well as well as the other financial gains. Thought the Exeter fans were good and deserved a better performance from their team. Add to that the traffic chaos at Heyford post match they probably got caught up with, a bad day all round. One contributer on their forum thanks Mick Lynch so he did not witness the game, dark humour indeed
 
I expect Jefferson Louis will be signed soon as possible to give the bench a bit of experience
