Could get worse?https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-14935571/Man-United-season-ticket-licence.html"Manchester United are considering charging fans up to £4,000 - purely for the right to buy a season ticket at their planned new stadium.Mail Sport understands that a highly controversial introduction of a ‘Personal Seat Licence’ – a system commonplace in America but not yet seen in the Premier League – was one of a number of proposals presented to fans by US-based consultants CSL International.While United officials have stressed no final decisions have been made and that they are at an exploratory stage, such a move would see supporters forced to pay thousands, before then having to shell out separately for their season tickets.Under the system, which is often used across the Atlantic to part-fund new stadiums, fans who fork out for a PSL would then have first refusal on the seat for the next 30 years. However, should they fail to buy a season ticket they would automatically lose the licence."

Just been told the way of getting a physical season card should be on the website this week, that's as much as i was told.
Apologies if I've missed something but have the club published these new rules for submitting 8 friends with whom I can share my ST yet? I haven't seen anything official, or indeed the steps I need to take and deadlines for doing so etc?

Its more about money and controlling who has the cards.Also all the plastic lanyards in GA+ and corporate . Its pure BS from the club . Its all about control of ST holders and the ticket .

It’s the PL rather than Villa who have mandated the move to e-tickets. It’s exactly the same if you go to Edgbaston now and most rail tickers are similarly moving to electronic versions. It’s the way of the world and moaning at Villa for if is pointless.
