Man United Away - Saturday 16/04/16 - 3:00pm ko (confirmed)

[conman]

The initial allocation was subsidised, maybe they second allocation wouldn't be so they believe we'd struggle to sell another X amount at £46?

We're approaching the end of the season and so far they have got the allocation wrong once, which was Everton away. Hardly symbolic of them "not wanting us there" no matter how many times you say it. Did they not want us there when we didn't sellout the allocation for Swanses?

yes we struggled to sell out for swansea , but by selling  out the 1400 tickets for old trafford so quickly and before general sale  shows the demand is there for more tickets

[dave.woodhall]

Can someone tell me why they don't want us watching them?

[cdward]

it could be 25 years before we play at old trafford again , these 1400 tickets are like gold dust

25 years, really?
Gold dust?

oh dear

Maybe the club has more concern for the negative health implications to us of watching Villa than we do ourselves

[Comrade Blitz]

Perhaps ManU only ordered 1400 half & half scarfs?

another thing pete , swansea was a late kick off , live on TV so demand was low because of that  , man u is sat 3pm , our last game there for a while so obviously we will sell loads , anyway they got it wrong for stoke away then common sense prevailed and a 2nd allocation was announced  , hopefully with over 3 weeks to go the same will happen for old trafford

Lots of clubs take an initial allocation and later on take the full one. It's hardly getting it wrong that we took the full allocation at Stoke.

I'd have thought we'd take the second allocation for Manure but as I said, that may not be subsidised.

I just don't get how you keep saying they don't want us there when after 16 away games they've got it wrong once.

I've only said it once , and not in this thread

anyway , we are not asking for a 2nd allocation even though i believe we could have easily sold double the 1400  ,I thought this sort of thing would finish when fox left , maybe its the ticket office manager that makes the decisions ,sod it ,  I am not bothered , i wasnt going anyway , I'm going to Watford instead and got my ticket yesterday , when they post it that is , already got train ticket 8 quid return,
watfords ground holds 21 thousand we got 2100 tickets thats 10%
man u's ground holds 75 thousand we got 1400 tickets thats 2%

But you're not bothered.

Have nothing but priase for the travelling support for selling this one out given what a terrible season we've had, and likely thrashing we could get even by the poorest Utd team in living memorie.  Lets hope we can leave some kind of mark on Old Trafford before leaving stage left.  Those fans deserve it.

You mean leave a mark figuratively rather than a mass dirty protest right ?

Tickets came through the post. I can confirm that they're not made from either gold or dust.

if your ticket was made of gold it would be fools gold

We could have sold 20K+ for this, probably our last chance to watch, and pay respect to, Michael Carrick.
