Sign up now.\n\nA section of Arsenal fans have been angered by Morgan’s involvement in the Premier League title celebrations, particularly as the broadcaster called for the club to sack Arteta in 2022.\n\nPiers Morgan and his sons posed for a photo with Arsenal’s players\n\nBut Morgan has revealed that he paid for Crystal Palace hospitality tickets in March, which allowed him access to the celebrations on the pitch after the game had ended.\n\nOne Arsenal fan wrote on X: ‘Why was Piers Morgan & his clan on the pitch at Selhurst [Park]? Nowt worse than celebrity fans muscling in on things. Especially one who called for Arteta’s head on several occasions in the early years.’\n\nMorgan responded: ‘Maybe because I had the foresight to buy 4 tickets at the start of March when I had a feeling it might be a momentous day for the club I’ve supported for 55 years. As for Arteta, he proved me and a lot of people wrong, and I couldn’t be happier about it.’\n\nPiers Morgan revealed he paid tickets for Crystal Palace hospitality, which allowed him to get on the pitch (Shutterstock)\n\nIn a separate post, Morgan added: ‘To clarify, on March 4, I paid full price (£750 + VAT each) for 4 tickets to Palace’s very nice 2010 Club hospitality suite. Then we got invited into the boardroom, and offered the chance to go pitch-side for the trophy-lift. We feel very lucky. Thanks @CPFC.’\n\nIn a response to another Arsenal fan, Morgan wrote: ‘The tickets I bought were available to anyone and I paid full price. And I pay full price for 4 season tickets, go to every Arsenal game when I am in England, and watch every Arsenal game when abroad. That qualify me as a proper fan?’\n\nFollowing the celebrations, Morgan was also seen having a drink with Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke.\n\n**For more stories like this, check our sport page**.\n\n**Follow Metro Sport for the latest news on**Facebook,** Twitter and Instagram**.\n\nComment now Comments \nAdd Metro as a Preferred Source on Google\nAdd as preferred source\n",
