ticket prices for semi- final

A load more new blocks have just gone back up for sale along with level 1.

Do you mean the restricted view tickets that only become available when the rest of the seats in the block are sold out?

There's probably a handful of tickets in other blocks that the Club take back in the last week of sales e.g. If some Blue has had a family bereavement or a key sponsor can't use all their tickets.

32k following (possibly up to 35k with some Blues in Club Wembley / neutral areas) isn't a bad effort.

It's a very strange world we live in these days. I know there's always been petty bullshit between fans but these days, thanks in the main to social media, the world seems to be full of twats who seem to have no real interest in football at all beyond taking the piss out of clubs for the most bizarre stuff.

Social media is both a blessing and a curse. It is great to interact with people on sites like this and have information instantly. Live streams and scores updates are a world from what I grew up with. The downside is all the fake news and the fact any half wit can post utter rubbish and people believe it. So called responsible media outlets are the worst of the lot. I have been on our old friends the mail this morning and we have two negative stories about us, no surprise there. One about Pep wanting a better atmosphere and this ticket fiasco crap. For Arsenal we have two old boys laughing about knocking us out 46 years ago but none of our ex players side. There are also loads of rag stories and wanking about wonder boy Rashford.. I doubt things are going to change anytime soon.

Yes, journalism in this country has just become a reflection of the horrible, vacuous world of social media. You'd think City getting attendances of 50+k for every home game would impress the media considering the gates of nearly every club in this country has been below 50k for most of history but no, we get them lapping up and repeating the "Emptihad" bullshit that was started by a handful of bitter united fans for a joke. I really find it astonishing how far the press in this country have plummeted in recent years and they didn't even start from a particularly high base.

Press no worth your breath mate only interesting in sensationalising every thing, most are idle journalists that don't bother letting truth get in the way of a good story. Just watch all the transfer rumours for next season and see how many they get correct bet is not more than one in ten.

Absolutely correct. A couple of weeks ago the daily fail listed united's games in April to illustrate their fixture congestion. Not the most taxing of research needed but they managed to exclude next week's derby match. I have also pointed out serious technical errors in some of the content they published, not entirely sport based. They had the good grace to take the articles down.
 
I've just had a message off a rag telling me our support is embarrassing

This prick, I kid you not, in all the years I've known him has watched them live once.. and that was a freebie

I can't be arsed even responding to him as I've learnt in the last 12 months that it's just best to ignore him

Maybe you should share his email address or mobile number or whatever with us so we can give him the treatment. :)

I'm sure I know him too!
 
Funny how the gobbiest ones tend to be the armchair fans who literally can't see the rank hypocrisy in their comments. Sure, the match attending Utd fans give us a bit of stick about this as well but a lot of them can also see that they often have an empty seats issue of their own. I'll never forget a poster on Red Cafe after van Gaal's first game in charge on the opening day of the 2014-15 season at home to Swansea saying there were loads of empty seats but United fans who hadn't even been to the game tried to claim there were hardly any. He made every single one of them look an utter twat.
 
Not read the whole thread so apologies if already posted but this is before kick off at the rag semi last year, nicked off twitter...

I fully understand why others are not going. I'm going but if I still lived up north, I probably would have given it a swerve.

I'm surprised we sold so many, all things considered.

Haha take care bud, all blues together etc.

We always use Wealdstone on our coach, cheap, decent beer, real ale to a fashion, BBQ and loads of bar staff.
 
I work with 6 rags who never go the swamp ever.
They text me all the time about the Emptyhad !

The irony is brilliant
