The cnuts are now reporting United to UEFA 
Good luck with that!
Good luck with that!Club's reply to Sevilla's high ticket prices

Excellent from Utd, about time they stood up to this flagrant disregard to fans. And Sevilla's greed has also cost them money and hopefully taught them a lesson not to do similar actions in the future. However, the point stIll remains that it shouldn't have come to this had UEFA taken the lead and address this at the start but they are nowhere if not in the pockets of the money makers!
£89 for a ticket is disgusting. I can only see this happening more and more in the future, which is worrying for fans as it will push people away from going to matches.
The point is to not have a repeat of this in the future. So any other way of handling this situation would just make Sevilla and the likes (could be even us) do this as a practice. So Sevilla can now try and either dissolve the situation or come out as bigger cnuts.
Pretty sure it’s against the rules to charge away fans more. I wonder what the sanctions might be.
They are not charging away fans more. The home section near the away section are being sold for 89 quid.
Just that "Prime" ST members of Sevilla get subsidies on top of that for being prime members
This is somehow going to be used to add bite to the game when it's just money men from both clubs fecking over both sets of fans.
2 wrongs don't make a right. But I expect nothing less from the shoddy way our club has run post Gill and Fergie. We were once a classy club, doing things "the right way".. now just been petty and childish.
the right way isn't to punish poor Sevilla fans (there's a fecking recession in Spain.. have some respect!) just so our luvvies get subsidised tickets.. it is to report Sevilla to the authorities and get on with it.

Don't be a fanny..just because United are there, the plane/train fares increase five-fold (or more), hotels go up, so we get fecked over for that, then we get shafted over ticket prices as well? Just because United are rich, doesn't mean your average United fan is...
Very well done Man United.
Heaven forbid the club try standing up for its own fans. Shoddy indeed..
No white text??
Wow. For once, I am lost for words. Honestly don't know where to start.
Contender for worst post of the year and we’re only in January - well done.
The only thing you can fault the club for is not doing this sooner. For years the away fans have been ripped off. I remember paying £40 for a Wigan away game and the massive we’re charged £15 weeks earlier.
If Sevilla don’t like what we’ve done, drop the price and we will reciprocate. Don’t take the piss and charge £35 more than Liverpool got charged. I know we up our prices in the latter stages, but it’s consistent whether we get Basel or Bayern
Sometimes in life you have to stick up for yourself and stop being pushed around and taken advantage of.The club has drawn a line in the sand and backed the people that make the club what is is.
The fans!
Other people will just sit back and let it happen for fear of caring about what other people think!
Possibly the worst post ever. People who follow United around Europe are luvvies now?
Just feck off.
lol...worst post I've read for a long time (and that's beating Billy's homeless post by some margin!). More evidence we need to bring back likes before getting promoted
Great that something is being done about this. Remember when we faced FC Midtjylland a few years ago in the Europa League they went from £22 when Southampton visited to £71 when we did.
Almost 20 years ago now. Time flies.
Feck 2008 (as good as it was nothing beats the 99 team for me the mental strength and complete midfield that was a team not just one man). This was special because it was at a time when football was still innocent, no money men, no diving, just proper football men.
Enjoyed football more back then, many many world class players around (Baggio in Italy for example, Batitusta etc)

What have I just read....
So the bottom line is that thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of people applaud what we have done, even fans of bitter rivals, but at least, oh, three bleeding hearts on here think we are big bad evil United....meh.
Twitter levels of wrongness in this post - the point wasn't to punish the Sevilla fans, but to make the club back down after being pushed into a corner (which they have done), or failing that let anyone who does this in the future know they will be met with the same- so don't do it.
'Sevilla will also look to guarantee that no Sevillista pays a penny more than any Manchester United fan for similar tickets - as competition regulations dictate.'
Hang on - so they're saying this after they already clearly tried to charge Man Utd fans more for away tickets? If this is against competition rules, weren't Sevilla the first ones to break it?
What are you on about ?
Sevilla used a loophole by creating a set of tickets for home fans for 89 pounds, but then giving subsidies on those prices for their "prime" ST holders.
Not sure why anyone is more sorry for Sevilla fans than their own club. They can just use the extra money to subsidize their fans also if they want.
Personally it's a great move for our fans and if Sevilla fans don't like it they can complain to their club.

Yeah, right. So Sevilla is ok with charging United fans more? They act like they are innocent here.. If United is not protecting our fans from this greedy bastard, who will?
Very well done from us there! It had to be done as a last resort and it shows other clubs, that we may play in the future, that we're no pushovers. Glad the Sevilla fans are also getting discounted by their club, as they did nothing wrong themselves and for the most part are against their board for the disgraceful pricing.
Are your other 150+ posts as truly sh!thouse as this pal?
Ever been to a game live? Are you a "Luvvie" as well?
So what's this under allocation by the club now? But its telling how they haven't criticized the price we have charged. Their statement title is just about the allocation. Just complained the increase was late and that they will subsidize.
It really makes perfect sense. Essentially means that Sevilla raised prices for its own fans while United fans remain unaffected. This is not retaliation, it's just simple economics. Well done club.
Absolutely brilliant well done.
Who aren’t?They are not charging away fans more. The home section near the away section are being sold for 89 quid.

good move from the club
I imagine the most likely outcomes from Sevilla's complaint will be UEFA telling them to accept it or reduce their prices
making Sevilla look small minded and greedy in that move

club tried to negotiate a lower price with Sevilla, they would not play ball. So in fairness United simply said we will join you in your pricing since you insist on it.
Notholing wrong on United's side.
Sevilla fans are not happy with their club.
How are the money men making money with this if they’re going to use the price difference to refund their fans?
Well done by the club, but why do their fans only get 4,1% of the tickets if they should get 5%?
i think Seville are charging their home fans the same as our away fans which is the difference
