2x Villa Tickets available in W3106, FV £28 each.

Would prefer to sell them as a pair.

Worth noting that Barca will charge around €100 a ticket. Around 5K allocation. There's a very good chance you can get on the trip with 0 credits but it's without a doubt the worst away end in Europe
What makes it the worst away end in Europe? Also is that €100 for the away end, because I’m more than happy to sit in the home end if I can’t get a ticket

Up in the skies. So high up. Plus they historically give fans less seats so you end up on the stairs then barged into the seats where someone is already sat down. On top of that it’s a bit of a shit hole. You think old Trafford is run down? Check out Nou Camp!

The Nou Camp reminds me of old Wembley, an absolute shithole.
Wembley is the only other stadium I’ve been too where you were shocked at the absolute state of it.
Old Trafford feels like a luxurious new stadium in comparison.

Don’t mind the Nou Camp myself, one of them if you get a chance to go should do it at least once. Historic ground, bit of a dump but doesn’t really bother me. What’s better than going to watch United in a knockout euro tie?

Big fan of Barcelona as well. Perfect tie for those on zero credits to get 1 credit.

Plus the dirty plexiglass at the front and the ridiculous glare any form of light puts off it. It's just shite.

Slight concern I saw this morning that they are going to start dismantling the top tier during the World Cup, would assume that will affect our allocation.

As Andy_Cole said. up in the skies, run down, perspex plastic that steams up so you can't see. Only serve alcohol free beer, they make you get off at a specific metro stop so you have to walk miles to get to away end. Be there regardless though.

Been trying to buy 5 tickets for the Bournemouth game for the last hour with no luck. Any help appreciated. One section (not hospitality) has lots of flashing seats but won’t let me add to basket.

It's fairly easy to get to the stadium by your own route - the problem is after the match when the police dierect you a certain way irrespective of where you want to go. I've booked a hotel 600 meters from the ground but wouldn't be surprised to be forced to walk several miles to get there!

Yeah, I’m up at 7 (I think) credits and have absolutely no intention on going. Been there, done that, and as you say, awful awful away end.

I had an email this morning about the tickets for Barca at home releasing at 1pm today. I just went on after being in a queue and there's no available seats. Has anyone managed to get some, my question is should I wait till 1 and refresh the page?

Not sure what you are on about but it's not 1pm yet. So the main release hasn't happened.

Website has just updated to say that everyone online when the tickets are released will get a random place in the queue. Only 6000 will be available and there is a good chance all will be gone before you get a chance to purchase if you are not at the front.

What happened to the famous loyalty point system. Useless gits.

6000 available to all members and ST holders who opted out, waste of time.

"You've only come to see the Barca, come to see the Barca..."

Supply is never gonna meet to demand for when top tier opposition comes to town. United tickets right now are in very high demand anyway. Carabao on Thursday is sold out too.

Absolute fecking joke.

I was on the website for at least an hour watching the countdown. Then it refreshes and bumps to 80k in the queue

I check on my phone to join the queue 10k. How?

Either way, not gonna happen for me

You had to be logged in and have clicked on "Home Tickets" before 13:00. Then you would have been given a random slot in a second queue at 13:00.

The thing is I couldn’t get to the tickets page without queuing. Bloody annoying

Yeah, I queued at 12:30, to then have to enter a holding area to get a random slot in a second queue at 13:00.

They should have just done a ballot. People will pissed off far more at wasting time or being given certain death in a queue, than they would being chubbed in an e-mail. The game is not until Feb, so no rush.

Your sarcasm in this thread about Utd's ticketing operations is golden. No point getting worked up over it when it's been a shitshow for years... :cool:

It's the fact it manages to get worse every year that kills me.
