How much was a pint of Stella? I hearing different prices
Wembley allocation (12 Viewers)
- Thread starter Skybluecol
- Start date
Cheers, assumed so.
So I'd have to take the gamble of waiting for general sale to get him one next to me.

Surely they wont do that because then it season ticket holders with different points cant sit together

yea potentially not, but letting 2/3rds of the people going try and choose tickets at the same time could cause an issue... at least they have time to plan this time!

But he is still a Man U fan.
So I'm glad your computer says no.
I've been asked as well. I knew as soon as I saw his name on my phone what he was going to ask. Told him if I managed to obtain a spare ticket its going to a Cov fan. Not one of your mob. He hung up. And probably was going to pester someone else

He’ll probably be able to get one himself via the membership but there’s no chance I’m abetting someone in the enemy camp.But he is still a Man U fan.

My son is a United fan… came to see me last night. I thought… oh here we go!! But he never mentioned it 
it’s not a nice feeling preparing to say to your eldest son…you can feck off you plastic!! So I’m glad it never cropped up. He did though ask for a retro city shirt to play 5 a side in… so maybe he’s coming around to the idea.

I sat in row 5 for the league one playoff final, it was ok but second tier is obviously much better. Paid £75 for playoff final last season, £120 for cup SF.

Club should try and make some cash
ST 1st
Then do a premier deal £600 for last 5 home games and next season £500 refunded if promoted. Limit to take us to 23000 ST
Block of 5 last games £125 = £25 per game
Then general sale after anyone with loads of points is not in the 3 above.
would help build a bit of a war chest for next season.

I’d be inclined to take a mate who at least wanted Cov to win!

You really need a ST. Wasted money paying the prices you’re paying instead of a ST. It must break even at worst?
Mucca Mad Boys

Why would they get 2 tickets and no one else? The club have never done something like that before.
If anything it’ll be 2x ST but as I mentioned earlier, we don’t have a big enough allocation to allow for 2x all STHs.
The reason for the points system is because ST is not a big enough differentiator for fans. With a 34,000 allocation you can open the sales window to all STHs, sell 19,000 and then the rest.

I see your point. But will the allocation get down to the members, or are they treated as the same as STH?. Not sure how the membership works. But yes must better a Coventry fan goes to the game instead of a United fan.Oh I agree, it’s just that with his membership, he’ll be able to get his own ticket.

No way this will be allowed to go on general sale with the risk of Utd fans buying tickets. If you don’t have a membership number already you ain’t getting an option to buy. Today the club changed the last 5 games to members only with a previous purchase history. Beforehand this was only for the Leeds game.
This will have specifically been done today to ensure Man U fans can't buy a ticket for one of the final 5 games, and then have a possible opportunity at a Wembley ticket. TBF, some may have already done that.

If I smell a man ure fan anywhere near me in our end I promise I will ruin their day . I have family in the forces who want a ticket and are home on leave after 5 months on tour so I won’t be happy

It'll be done sensibly. 1 per person
Day 1 - 1000+ points and ST
Day 2 - 500+ points and ST
Day 3 - 230+ points and ST
Day 4 - 500+ Points
Day 5 - 250+ Points
Day 6 - 100+ points
Day 7 - Anybody with a live account prior to the semi final
Majority of our core away support will be able to get tickets together day 1 and sit together in the lower bowl. But it allows fans that have points but don't attend as regularly as others to attend ahead of the day-tripper that would be STH's +1s.

I would guess the club will follow a similar framework that you've used for the quarter final tickets. I might be something like:
1st Tranch of tickets to: ST holders with 1100+ points
2nd Tranch : ST holders with 500+ points
3rd Tranch : Rest of ST holders.
4th Tranch: Members with 500+ points.

But this would also mean that the fan at the bottom of the food chain won’t be able to sit with family and friends!
1000 pts is probably a bit steep to start as imagine only 5-6K with that many. Most away games until last week were making it to the 800 bracket so perhaps start there.
Problem with that is that many fans who sit together may not have the same points . Unless I have misread your thoughts.

FA Cup Hunger games II, Southampton away was mental. Didn't we get >5k sold out in under 30 minutes?Just put all of them on for sale at once and wait for carnage

Genuinely think it will just be similar to the PO final last year, first window STH's with any amount of points & then non STH's with 200+ points, then finally anyone with purchase history to be the "general sale" for whatever is left.

If some in day 2 wants to sit with someone in day 4 then they both buy on day 4
Yeah that's fine, just spitballing rough numbers
Again if they want to all sit together they wait until the window of those with the lower points. If they want to garanteee a ticket they buy early and sit apart.
Yes can see that is an option to be fair

Think they will take a slightly different approach this year as we have a much longer window to sell them in.

It just definitely won't be 2 per STH as it encourages re-sale and people who haven't followed the club turning up.
I'm looking at it slightly selfishly too as I don't have a ST this year as paying to get married took priority for me. I still have over 1000 points though through following home and away for years. Is it right that people like me miss out because Mr first time season ticket holder wants to take his Man U mate?

If they are doing 1 per season ticket and they have enough to have 10k spare even if every season ticket holder buys 1 then why on earth would they need to do points for the season ticket holder section? Solves no issues and creates more problems.

Possibly but think the general sale will definitely require some type of purchase history unlike last year, as someone above mentioned even the remaining home league games require that to purchase right now.. either way as long as united plastics from cov and day trippers are kept out and actual city fans who deserve to be there will be able to get a ticket then it's all good
