Is the Liverpool away ballot result out today?
Yes, out today.

Our allocation for Liverpool seems a bit low, I thought European away games were usually a higher % of the stadium than that.

WTF.... I actually got a ticket for Liverpool away in the ballot... :lol:

I told work this morning I'd be able to go to Vienna that day as well. Looks like I'll have to tell them there has been a change of plan.

Moved for the FA cup game, due to being in E2 which is needed for away fans.
But they've jammed me at the back of NW Upper! Apparently that being £5 more expensive makes it a better seat!

Cheeky focks!

How can they justify £56 a ticket when their most expensive ticket for the home fans for that game is £45?!
It's either £36 in the corner or £38 near the goal. £56 is incorrect.

We got more than they are obliged to give (5% is all they have to give in Europa which is about 2300).

you should be able to get ticket for that from someone on here, keep checking nearer nearer the time for spares

Same, and they've split me and my brother up yet again. I'm ringing up today to get the seats moved, last time I did that we got put in the singing section so I suggest doing the same if you want to get some better seats. There will always be a few returns knocking about.

Thing is that he will be traveling from Hongkong and is scared to death that he will spend a months salary for the flight and then ends up without a ticket.

Just been on phone to ticket office and there are still Liverpool tickets available if anyone is interested. I was on hold for 50 minutes mind but could be worth it.

There is no chance of that happening mate - it's only Villa. If you are desperate to sort him out soon then I would suggest buying a couple of memberships (£20 each) and buying some tickets straight from the club as there were some available when I checked last night.

Didn't get tickets for West Ham in the ballot, genuinely shocked - thought it'd be nailed on.

Will 110% get sorted for villa.

I have four execs and I will be looking at dropping over 70% off the face value to even get some interest in them.

Just got an e-mail from the club... they are giving a free white away shirt to everyone with a ticket for Liverpool away as they want all the United fans to turn up wearing white. Nice gesture! :D

Very nice gesture but there is no way they will get everyone wearing white in an away end against our most hated rivals. Might get some 2/3 credit whoppers wearing them but anyone 6 credits up I would expect knows the score and wont be wearing any replica top!

Also to add it is Adidas giving these out, they done the same with Sunderland at West Ham

Tickets for Villa, Bournemouth and Leicester are available from the ticket office. Got an email from the club today. Managed to get 1 for Villa and Bournemouth but there is a long wait on the website

And on top of all of that, it's not exactly short sleeve weather these days.

What are the chances of getting a single spare for Liverpool home since it's a midweek game? Really tempted to make the trip up but not sure if there'll be any spares floating around for our biggest game in ages.

Ye I have a feeling there is going to be a glut of United away shirts appearing on ebay in a couple of weeks!

Tickets are still available (quite a good few actually). If you know somebody with a membership who isnt going (or if somebody on here who isnt going but is willing to buy it and sell it to you).

they have been on open sale to members for several days now - you can even buy the cheap half year membership and pick them up

@Sylar @Rood @MelvinYeo ST holders can also buy one extra ticket per holder. Would offer to use mine but we have already used ours to help some friends out. Hopefully someone can sort you out but if not I'd just go ahead and buy a "lite" membership for £20 and buy a ticket which are reduced prices as well so you won't pay more than about £55 for both membership and ticket.

It's been a joke since the EL draw. I have just been using online in the evenings to do what I need to do or do you need to speak to them?

When you are on hold to them, there is an option for them to call you back so could be worth doing that so you aren't wasting time on hold to them.

its like they've just turned the phones off and put you hold by default. I'm a ST holder but cant buy on the site after their recent update my membership no. is different to my ST. Stressed out over Europa league! :eek:

nope. Was on hold for 10 minutes and gave up. Decided to try emailing: tickets@manutd.co.uk
Did it just now so will see if I have any luck.

I didnt get the option for a call back (but ive had that option before so not sure how to do or get that).

I've struggled all week too try to get through but yesterday I got the call back option for the first time and they called back within half hour! Got two tickets for the Liverpool game, one seat behind the other nothing together and very limited seats left!

Really? I checked the grid yesterday, and it looked like the vast majority of East 2 was available!

I was signed in with my season ticket holder view, are they holding anything back? Or has a whole stand gone overnight?
