I haven't had anything taken but quite a few mates have so I just presumed I'd been chubbed, bonus if the ballot isn't complete yet.

Anyone know how long it usually take for the queues to calm down going back into town from Tollgate after the match?
Recommend walking to Media City myself mate. Good pub there also. Have a pint and you'll stroll on a tram.

Does anyone know how the CL home tickets will be sold/distributed this year? In a ballot similarly to the Chelsea/Liverpool/City games?

Imagine they'll just go on sale for the group games unless we do draw a big club. I think the knockout games tend to be ballots.

Nice one mate. Thanks. (Even if I did do a double take to make sure I wasn’t replying to myself :lol:)

Have any ST holders transferred a game using the new online system yet? Just wondering how it's going if people transferred to are or aren't members?

I'm away part of Sept so will be transferring to a pal. He's not a member, but I've set him up on my account

I did it to a friend of mine for the Leeds game as I was away. They get an email with a downloadable match ticket for a smart phone. Worked no problem for us

Do the club release tickets back for general sale for those ST holders who can’t make it? I find it strange that the Villa game is completely sold out. Maybe it’s the new season fever
ST holders have no option to return or exchange their spare tickets with the club so they can only be passed on to people they know personally. I'm pretty sure Arsenal and Liverpool have ticket exchange platforms between ST holders and members so it's disappointing United haven't offered this in my 10 years as a season ticket holder.

I know it used to happen through Viagogo as I used to buy from there as a member. It was a good option tbh apart from the additional fees which Viagogo used to add on.

Yes, it was a disaster for me for Leeds (tickets disappearing into thin air after forwarding) so I would get this done ASAP so you can get in touch with the club if anything goes wrong.

So as a ST holder, I received an email today from the club re West Ham (League Cup) and the upcoming 3 x CL home games - apparently I'm eligible for complimentary home cup tickets this year which is a nice touch from the club to be fair but I have no idea why. Did anyone else get this and do you know why this is?

There seemed to be quite a lot, maybe 100. Most were on the West End.
Cheers, annoyed I missed that.

Think United are proper snide selling champions league tickets before the opponent is even known but suppose such is the demand.

Hang on, complimentary as in all of the cup games free?
Or did you mean supplementary, meaning you can get more tickets for mates?

I hope there's still some available once the actual teams and dates are known!

Living 180miles away, and needing to tie in with work and my local lot's games (praying for United to have a Wed home the day after Wycombe play up north on the Tuesday!), means I can't just jump in!

How come the club drip release tickets for games then? The Villa game was showing as being completely sold out on Monday and then when I checked on Wednesday they had released 100 odd seats for purchase. What’s freeing those seats up?

I think free but I have no idea what I have done to deserve it. Ignorance is bliss in this case.

Likelihood is that I won't be able to make any midweek home cup games myself so I will try and share the love on here.

Pretty sure this is due to membership ticket returns and/or partners (e.g. Thomas Cook used to offer tickets in hotel packages - not sure if there is a replacement now) not using their allocated seats.

Looking for two spares for Villa. Can meet in London or Manchester or transferred to our memberships if that works. Missed the tickets yesterday!

How the hell can the euro games be on sale when we don't even know what weeks we'll have home games in yet!
It's always the way - they are selling nicely as many just take a punt (or date and time doesn't matter to them).

I've done the usual of just booking one, and hoping the date works out!

If I was a local I would.
But when there's 6 different weeks of dates, and 2 days on either of the 6, it's just way too much of a mad lotto.

I know that sod's law dictates they'll bang the game on the same day as Wycombe, meaning I have to double screen it!

It is mad they just get them on sale - but they just want them sold.

Streaming the draw now ... hoping dates and opponents are tied up pretty quickly.

Keep checking the site - they will almost certainly release more.

Even Leeds had regular tickets appear the day before on the site - you just had to be quick, and F5 a lot!

Yep they normally get the dates tied up quite quickly.
Fairly uninspired draw, but all well worth doing still.
