At £61 a ticket for europa league games for me, I won't be attending any. It's difficult really, I'm not sure I have many more seasons left at this price. I can afford it but i can't justify it.

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?

I have put that on before!

I've been distracted by all the transfer activity

I think that is a huge catalyst - have a couple of really exciting first team additions and it changes a lot of peoples minds not the high cost of course but the motivation to find a way

I retired in May at 66 but now see the discount is for "over 66" - so is that 67 and if so why?

Google says the state retirement pension age is 66 for men and women so i would say once you hit 66 the day after you are over 66.........

It’s the state pension age for everyone. Not just men.

I have to admit, as a lifelong fan and ST Holder over 30 years, I'm losing the will these days. Things like the dictatorial way the club is acting over tickets, you even have to attend a minimum of 14 games or they'll take your season ticket away! Because I opted not to attend the FA cup games last season but paid to watch all the CL games they demoted me to 3rd choice with the prime seats already gone for the SF at Wembley. Plus their attitude over physical season cards. Moving games for tv is another. All this PSR crap to protect the Sky 6.

As I got a physical season ticket last year I am still waiting to see if they will issue me with one this season. Apparently, (according to AVFC) it is to fall in line with the PL sustainability rules, as if issuing a few plastic cards is going to make one iota of difference to anything! It is all under review so not certain if I am welcome anymore after 30+ years of being a season ticket holder.

If a ST holder transfers to a person on his list does the person get an attendance point if he’s a member?

I can't see my membership points total on the site but when I click on my membership details it says Claret membership £70 yearly plus postage. I renewed last week and it was £53 so that's confusing.

Mine says the same, have you got a junior membership linked to it as well, unless we already know next year’s price !!

I was told it was to do with P L sustainability rules as well. Presumably that will also mean the end of the flame throwers burning gallons of LPG and the fireworks that are a feature at every match now.

Like a lot of ‘sustainability’ decisions it’s more about saving/making a few quid, than saving the planet. Hello from the private jet flying to the USA for preseason.

The flames and fireworks for daytime matches just looks rubbish to me. All it does is create a load of smoke.

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."
