Anyone wanna explain the Ashburton Army situation to an overseas fan?
Basically a bunch of ultra wannabes who got their ticket allotment cut (so did other fan groups btw) and are whining because they apparently are the ones that drive the atmosphere at the Emirates so they are "important" so to speak.
@MHPengwingz @HaleEndGrad there was also this: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/may/12/arsenal-police-antisemitic-messages-ashburton-army-fan-group
Yeah a whole bunch of white dudes dressed in dark colors and occasionally masks with people who make that type of comments is not a good look, especially the team probably doesn't want anything that controversial for optics. Besides, if they really are such "diehards", get a season ticket. Let Arsenal have a chance to grab other people's money and let others get to go to the games.
