myself and 3 mates will be in London over the NY period this coming December/January.
we want to go watch a premier league game whilst we’re in London and just want to see good football in a stadium with good atmosphere.
the three options we’ve narrowed down to are:
- Fulham vs Arsenal
- Tottenham vs Bournemouth
- West Ham vs Brighton
i’m tempted to get tickets to the London Fulham vs Arsenal derby (even tho they’ll cost twice as much as the tickets for the other 2 games), but wondering what everyone’s thoughts are on what you think is the “best” game to go to (out of these 3 options) for someone’s first time going to a Premier League game?
just fyi myself and my 3 mates don’t support any of the teams playing in these 3 games, so that won’t be an influencing factor in deciding which game we go to
The cottage is one of the most beautiful stadiums to visit, especially for tourists. We brought Arsenal to a 2-2 draw at the Emirates so it shouldn’t be an absolute wash out but tickets will be hard to come by. Our new stand isn’t fully open yet.
I would suggest Spurs, home ticket. As a neutral the atmosphere will be electric especially if they’re still flying high top of the table and Bournemouth are still in relegation worry.
even as a lifelong Manchester United fan id love to visit Craven Cottage!
whenever there’s a big sports game or concert here in australia that’s gonna sell out quickly, i’m always online to buy the tickets the second/minute they go on sale
if i do the same for the Fulham v Arsenal game, do u think theres at least a half decent chance of me being able to get 4x tickets all together?
i’m guessing this game will sell out really fast as well? i read somewhere that the upcoming game against Man Utd sold out in 2 days or something like that?
i’ve created a OneFulham account, but don’t have a paid club membership or anything, so not sure if this will be an issue when looking to buy tickets?
