Goonerboy,

Is that correct the 79/80 is dearer than the 80/81 ?

Hi mate, the top one is definitely 80/81 as that style of ticket was only issued for that season. The 2 tickets are for different sections with the West Stand Lower (80/81 ticket) being a cheaper section of the ground than the main part of the stand.

The bottom one is a bit vaguer as it was a style issued for the seasons between 76/77 to 79/80. However tickets after 80/81 are of a different style so I am certain that the second one is earlier. On Arsenal tickets you see there is a 9 digit number on the bottom right. The first 4 numbers are the date of issue so the 0208 signifies issuance on 2nd August. Looking at the fixture dates for the other seasons when this type of ticket was issued shows that this game was played Dec (76/77), April (77/7Cool, end Sept (78/79) and Aug (79/80) so it is most likely to be 79/80.

Hope that helps cheers
