Arsenal is renowned for its astronomical prices when it comes to the fan experience. Ticket prices are consistently the highest in the country and show no sign of falling down into line with the rest of the Premier League. While the Gunners had a decent season last year, finishing second to an astonishing Leicester, the cost of a goal in the Emirates Stadium for the home spectators was the highest in the league. Calculated by dividing the cost of the cheapest season ticket (£1,014) by the number of home goals (31), the cost per goal was £32.71. Down at the other end of the scale is Manchester City, where fans can see a goal for every £6.36 they spend.
