Renewed my season ticket and I'm in the rail seating trial so looking forward to seeing how that evolves.
I'd be happy with it being like J stand 18/19 and the few years prior, before most moved to the RA section. I've not really moved seat so was an easy option to stay there for the trial.It won’t be as good as the SE, IMO but I am also intrigued to see if it adds to the atmosphere in the ground.
If we can get even a semblance of a decent atmosphere going at that end of the ground, OT on certain games could be amazing again
Apologies if already posted elsewhere. When do tickets go on sale to official members?

There has been a decent atmosphere in J Stand for a few years now IMO - diluted when TRA left for SERS but still better than what it was before
Looking forward to the rail seat trials
I'm a bit disappointed that it's only 1,500 safe standing spaces whereas City are putting in 3,000 spaces.Renewed my season ticket and I'm in the rail seating trial so looking forward to seeing how that evolves.
Should be around 20th of this month so long as the government confirm reopening guidelines.

It should be successful though. That end of the ground needs that space and it should bounce off the energy created by TRA at the other end of the ground.
Very fair point! I'm in the South Stand, so... yeah.Unfortunately that doesn't really happen as the acoustics at OT are terrible so you don't hear much from the opposite end nowadays - if you do hear it then it means you are not making enough noise yourself !
I wonder how the parking is going to work, as apparently they've done away with sending the physical permits too and it's going all digital.
I've paid for it but I have literally no idea how it's going to pan out.
Can't wait for that first game of the season though, and against Leeds of all teams!
They should do automatic number plate recognition on the barriersSurely it can only slow things down with everyone having to stop, arse around with their phone, some guy checking it etc.
As opposed to just flashing a card that just sits in your car?
Has anyone been able to change their seats? Theres a "replace seat" option in the season ticket section and it was open for a bit, but seems to be greyed out now?
Go!!!
Just managed to relocate our seats, it’s the replace seats option
Wow, its actually working now. Guys how is W204 , Row 13? I feel like its probably a really good place to watch the game? I've never actually been to Old Trafford before (other than on the stadium tour) so this is incredibly surreal!
Was it one or two seats? Can't manage to move two seats, saying I'm leaving a seat on its own.

EDIT: changed it to W3104 Row 14. Think Tier 2 lower down is possibly better. I'm just giddy though, theres so many seats to choose from now!

It depends how close you want to be to a loud atmosphere.
W204 is the section directly next to TRA who organise the atmosphere at OT and will be exceptional apart from being where I sit!
Does sitting in Tier 2 not give you a slightly better view of the pitch though? I thought Tier 2 was also the place where the most atmosphere is.
Changed it back now . I feela bit sorry though for the people who've presumably given up their seats. I don't imagine its this easy to change seats in a normal year. I'll be sure to sing my heart out and make it worth itIMO, as long as you're high enough up tier 1 to get a good view of the other end, then being closer to the action is preferable to tier 2.
But everyone has different preferences.

I just moved from NE quadrant to the Stretty level two, but only had to swap a single. Managed to get W202 and there were a few other singles there.I don't want to move my seat but I had a look at the Replace Seat option, it comes up with "Sorry, you are unable to buy in this area", which probably means either there isn't any free seats in Stretty lower, or I'm not allowed as I already moved my seat from last season
I've dropped my STs from W3103 to W203 but have to be honest I'd like to think I'll be in the TRA section more often than not so hope not to get too acquainted with the new seats.It depends how close you want to be to a loud atmosphere.

Wasn't W204 the posh seats? Have they finally got rid of them then?

SERS was the best place in the ground to watch football in 19/20 season for my money so would image it'll be the same in 21/22, especially with larger numbers in the section.
