Yea Arsenal - City will be moved for tv. And tickets will be gold dust anyway. 

 

Might even make that the Saturday dinnertime or evening game.

I reckon Arsenal v Man City will get moved to be on tele. 

 

Fulham v Sheff Utd & Palace v Forest will be your best bets for a game in the capital. 

Thanks Brit

We might try and take the train down to Brighton. But they’re hosting Liverpool so once again tickets might be tough.

Yes, I suspect so. Also worth keeping an eye on those teams (like Brighton) who are playing in European competition next season. Their games tend to get moved to the Sunday if they've played in Europe on the Thursday. 

 

The likes of Fulham and Palace won't have that problem.

I’ve heard that Palace stadium’s somewhat of a dump. Have you been to match there?

Nope. My team has never played them while I've been alive! 

 

It's certainly regarded as one of the older school grounds. I reckon it would be a good experience.

West Ham v Newcastle is also a good option, providing it doesn't get moved to the Sunday

Brighton's game wth Liverpool will definitely be moved from the Saturday as we have a Europa League game on the Thursday beforehand. I'm hoping it will be moved to the Monday, but it's highly likely that it will be a direct clash with the Bills game, unfortunately.

I've had the dubious pleasure of visiting Selhurst on many ocassions, but my experience may be somewhat clouded by the fact that our fixtures there have a bit of an 'edge' to them (Palace v Brighton is a rivalry match) and there is always a very heavy police presence. The view from the away end is atrocious, but I expect there are better sightlines to be had from elsewhere in the ground (facing away from the pitch. Sorry, couldn't help myself). It's not the nicest part of town, but it would certainly give you an 'old school' experience. If it's a choice between Fulham and Palace, I'd go for Fulham every time - it's one of my favourite away trips of the season.

Much appreciated! I’ve been to the Cottage but not since they built the new riverside stand. Fulham v Sheffield may be the best bet for the Saturday before the Bills game. I’d be interested in going up to Luton but I understand their stadium is tiny. So I’m thinking tickets will be really hard to get, especially with Tottenham in town.

Tickets will be like gold dust for most games at Luton this season, plus there's a high chance that Spurs game gets moved (for TV) anyhow. If you're not wedded to the idea of Premier League football - and, no offence, Fulham v Sheffield United isn't the most glamorous of matches - you might want to wait and see what the EFL fixture computer list chucks out next week for the next tier down.

We’ve been to a couple of Championship matches. We had a blast at Loftus Road, and went up to Watford one time. The atmosphere is just as much fun and the tickets are way cheaper. Especially if you don’t care all that much who you see.

I think I will be going to Arsenal/City. I should know more in the next couple of days.

 

Presuming the Arsenal game stays on Saturday, the weekend will work out perfectly.

 

(North) London is Red, White and Blue.

If you have reservations about the areas around Selhurst Park being a shithole then you'll be in for a right treat in Luton 😁

 

The fixtures for my soccer team don't get released until early July but I'm hoping they're away to a team in the London area the day before the Bills/Jags game. 

 

I bagged some tickets for the Bills game last night. Plenty of tickets becoming available on the secondary markets from those who renewed London games season tickets but aren't using them for a certain game. I paid face value for 2 adult and 2 child tickets .

Just looking at it and it appears there are European competitions fixtures for the entire week leading up to the Bills game. If anybody is here for the week and wanting to watch a decent game of soccer those fixtures will probably be easier to get tickets for.

I think it will as Wikipedia suggest European competition fixtures will be held the week of the Bills game. Meaning West Ham will more than likely play the Thursday in Europe and Premier league on the Sunday.

Yea West Ham will be Sunday. They are Thursday Cup Division 1 next year after gloriously lifting Thursday Cup Division 2 this year.

Brit….What secondary market?

I'm a member of a Facebook group which acts a third party for people to sell on their tickets. It's mainly fans who've bought London games season tickets but can't make both games so look to sell the unwanted tickets on. Strict rules are applied  Tickets have to be sold for face value via PayPal (to protect the buyer). Private chats to set up the sale are facilitated by the page moderators. 

 

You have to be very quick when posts go up offering tickets for sale. The first person to reply saying they are interested gets a chat set up with the seller. And you go from there. 

 

I can PM you the group name if you want to have a look?
