Just got charged £45 for Wembley, so looks as if that category is underway. Still no way of getting there as it stands with train strikes.

Although hardly subsidised given the last two Wembley trips were £49 and £55

This just sounds like a Daily Mail journalist not realising United have a contract with a coach company for all away matches.

Did you apply for the atmosphere section? I’m in same boat just had £70 taken but hoping it’s the front rows of tier 1 like I had for Brighton instead of up in the gods.
We went for the atmosphere ticket, to be honest the view isn't too bad in Block 526 but the atmosphere was dead.

Still a chance you're in the front rows of tier 1, hopefully it's that.

Anyone who can't make the game I will be happy to take the ticket off your hands. Single or pair, anything works!

I do get pleasure from seeing those posts too tbf :lol:
I'm not sure if it's pleasure or anger, it defo triggers some response in me though!

One part of me admires the cheek to ask for something which you virtually have 0% chance of getting. Another part of me thinks it's just some innocent ignorance from genuine fans who just want to attend an event. The final part of me gains a little pleasure from the fact that the people who just turn up for the big games will be faced with silly black market prices - IMO they pretty much deserve this for just showing up for the juicy games, although I appreciate it's totally normal for there to be bigger demand for bigger games.

Is there any way getting around only having 1 membership but wanting a pair for Wolves?

You can't stop people asking on a forum really can you. Mildly infuriating as it is.

I've done 19 games this season and will likely not get near a ticket. But that's fine ST holders have earnt them, it's the chancers picking them up through work/sponsors/payiing big money to touts that kill me.

Bummer, but thank you for your replies guys!
Zero chance. Thousands of season ticket holders won't be able to get final tickets either.
Nope, Im a ST holder and managed to get two league cup final and fa cup semi final tickets, but because I foolishly forgot to opt in to Europa I can't apply for FA Cup final tickets.

basically if folk like me aren't getting anything, you've got no chance mate.

Yeah you can tell who the genuinely innocent ones are. My favourites are the complete chancers who probably aren't even members and have just joined the forum purely in the hope of snapping up Away games or Cup Final tickets.

Agree with the other poster regarding the FA Cup final.The 2nd ballot should have gone to cup season ticket holders that bothered to apply for and attend the game vs Brighton in the Semi finals.

Also this new policy they have introduced about selling season tickets back to the club for pretty much any game means that season tickets are going to be in short supply.

You still however, get season ticket holders moaning at the club all the time. Members are charged £8 more for every game and like I said season ticket holders can just sell back whatever game they don't wish to attend. Pretty good deal in my opinion.

I still don't think 100% of season ticket holders renewed though. So why are they not selling any season tickets to cup season ticket holders with a deposit this season?

I'm unsure it's section by section, I've got a feeling it might be by membership number. It seems the same people (ie. who have had their ticket the longest) get money taken first. Just trying to think logically from a programming perspective but maybe I'm giving United too much credit.
Yeah it's not necessarily by section. I'm not even sure there's a proper method to it. For the Carabao final, I had mine taken quite early, but in a lower section than I applied. FA Cup semi was taken fairly late, but I got the section I applied for (Cat 2, I believe). I haven't seen anything yet this time but I'm relaxed about it.

When do people reckon we will get email telling us where we are sat at Wembley?
Not until the ballot is completed I think. The seats will appear in the online account before though, just checked and nothing in mine yet.

Isn't this why they brought in the minimum personally attended games thing? Isn't it going up to 75% next year? I may be wrong.

I'd love to know who built the ticket system. Knowing the club, they probably outsourced it on Fiverrr. Would explain how shit it is.

I have a pair in N1408. I’m not an ST holder, so I’d have to e-mail you the digital ticket to download to get Apple Wallet/Google Pay.

£104 FV for the pair.

Bottom tier thank god. Funnily enough i'd have been charged £45 more if I was 1 row higher.
