If I buy tickets in the supporters section how do I get to supporters section without getting terrorized? I don't think I can get on a bus right?

Errrrrr. Early morning guys don't mind me. I will have Tottenham supporters side tickets in my hand for Sunday is there a way to get on a bus to the stadium from Tottenham or do I just casually stroll into the Emirates?

Is there like a meet up spot at hostel 8 or anywhere before the game?

Arsenal's never been a threatening or dangerous ground to go to, not even in the 80s.

Look up the tickets on google. A little pricey to be honest but I'm coming from the states so it's a little special occasion.

Now I haven't picked them up yet. Just keeping options open. Safe to sit in any area relatively speaking?

We got some wild rivalries in the NFL I wouldn't go to a Raiders home game as a chargers fan.

You probably wouldn't get let in to home supporters section if you wore a Spurs' shirt, and if you got in and started celebrating a Spurs' goal you'd probably be ejected from the ground, and people might take a couple of swings at you on the way out. So if you get a ticket in the home end, you'd have to pretend to be an Arsenal fan and not draw any attention to yourself.

If you go to a football match here, particularly a big London derby, the area in and around the stadium is effectively a police state and it's been that way for the last 30+ years. And the punishment for any trouble that happens largely acts as a deterrent to anything major these days.

But it's generally advisable not to openly wear colours when going to an away game in London, particularly if going on your own.

There'll probably be a police escort for Spurs fans to the tube station after the game, so hopefully you'll get to experience something like this if we win:

Neutral colors is 100% and I'm not a talker so I'm pretty calm and I never would talk crap. . But a yell might not be able to be restrained if we score.

Also tickets for the supporters side are the same as the exec boxes on some sites so I might just post up in there. I will have my girlfriend with me for the game so it's not like we are gonna cause any mischief.

No colors! Hahaha. But the box seats are the same price so it's a little debate.

Only been to lower league matches in the home section as an away "fan" (part time Orient fan, so not the most rampant of crowds to be fair), and i tend to find the best approach when your team scores is to politely clap and mumble, "good goal, good goal". If anyone looks at you funny, shrug, roll your eyes and say, "typical bloody Spurs!" and you're safe.
