Who can help me with identify this ticket?



Spoke with a respected Arsenal collector and he thinks that is against

2nd replay v Leicester 75 or
3rd or 4th replay against Sheffield W 79.

Are there people who have the same ticket who can help me?

Thanks

Hi
First - Arsenal didn't play at Leicester in 1975 in a 2nd replay but it was 1972 v Derby I have a terrace ticket for that game and it states on the ticket the 2 teams involved.

I may be wrong on this but I don't think it is for the '79 game either as the ticket looks just like an ordinary cup tie ticket issued by Leicester City for one of their own cup games, I will try an find out.

Thanks for your post.

I know Leicester did issue these kind of tickets but this ticket came out of a Arsenal lot.

I have a few Arsenal cup tickets played at Leicester but cant find a link for a season.

And Arsenal played two replays against Leicester at Filbert Street Wink

It is not for 1975 as prices for the main stand at Filbert St for that season were only £1.50 the price on your ticket is £2.50.

It was £2.50 to get into the matches at Leicester in 1979 so it would most likely be from that season so I would assume then if it came in with a batch of Arsenal tickets it would be that game.
