FAO the cock who gave me abuse today

On the way back from Manchester to Nottingham, you got off at Sheffield. You, are a cock. To start on a fellow blue like you did. Got on the train and almost every seat was 'reserved'. I managed to find a seat not reserved. Then a Polish couple took issue with me sat in their seat. I politely...

It's real.
Even though it is the muen, the article should be read.
It isn't about men thinking they are female and having periods.

It is about prostrate cancer and other prostrate problems. It can cause men to leak pee by accident. Because of this men wear 'panty liners'.
This simply allows them to change and dispose of the liner as it cannot be flushed.

Basically, fans to pay for the shit running of the club. Screwing over kids and seniors. What a delightful orgainisation.


Statement from MUST

Club put up remaining Members match tickets to £66 per game for remainder of season

Tonight the club informed the Fans Forum of changes to certain ticket policies that will take effect immediately. The Club has indicated that it will post the details of these changes online but the headline is that, with immediate effect, all Members tickets for the remainder of this season will increase to £66 each, and that this price will apply for kids and over-65s as well as adults.

This means that for an adult member to take their kid to a game in the remainder of this season will cost £132. Well over double the minimum price they could pay to do it today. And this change is happening overnight, immediately.

The Club claims that 97% of this season's tickets are already sold, so that this will only affect a small number of people, but we believe this stat is misleading, as we will explain below.

The Club has provided zero consultation on the matter, neither with the Forum nor the Fan Advisory Board nor MUST. We were simply informed of the decision that there will be price rises affecting certain fans that are “urgently needed” to address profitability and sustainability concerns.

Suffice it to say, that the idea that the fans must pay their “fair share” for the Club’s excesses and/or mismanagement—and above all, the Glazers lack of investment over two decades—is offensive.

We fans have done everything we have been asked. We have cheered the players on even in the face of substandard performance. We have gone to matches and abided by the new usage rules for tickets. We have taken on a price increase this year. This is in addition to the hundreds, even thousands loyal fans pay to follow United home and away.

There is a risk that this is only the opening salvo of what will surely be massive pressure to implement a significant price rise for next season. Once they have got used to charging £132 for a parent and child to come to OT, will they really go back to the old pricing levels for next season?

We are absolutely in favour of running a sustainable business, but football clubs are hardly ordinary consumer businesses. Ours is clearly in “rebuilding mode.” Moreover, it is not like we have options to take our custom elsewhere: we are not going to “choose another provider” like one might pick a telecoms company.

If the club has a need for short term capital they should issue new shares, as they did when INEOS first arrived, and bring in funding from existing or new shareholders.

We have objected to this action in the strongest possible terms, both for the action itself and the complete lack of consultation, which is a step backward based on the process we had agreed with the Club before INEOS’ arrival.

Over the coming days MUST will be seeking urgent discussions with the Club to get them to listen to fans' concern at this policy. United fans have sucked up a lot. We will not be silent on this and we need to be prepared to resist any attempts to further drive up ticket prices.

Many thanks for your continued support

That statement is fair enough. They are absolutely right to say that telling fans they must pay their fair share is an insult. Despite their ragginess, I have sympathy for them as this is the way football is going for all fans, including blues.
 
Quite telling that they don’t know a thing about PSR rules.
If Man Utd are at risk of failing PSR, which is why they are doing this, then a share creation won’t do anything as only a small amount of it is taken into account for PSR.
None of that will result in them claiming you guys are guilty of 115 charges, or that Newcastle United are using fake sponsors etc.
 
Funny how comments in media (& from Pep) that City fans can’t live off our achievements in the past - albeit our huge successes are all very recent - yet the rags are a huge club based on successes achieved over 15 years ago !!!

We’ll turn it round - that’s what we do
 
You did last time, you lying twats. And 1000’s of you fucked off to FC-United.

This shows they are in danger of failing ffp/psr or what ever name it now goes by.
They need money now.
They cannot increase season tickets halfway through so they increase match day tickets.
£66 for a child needs calling out by the lackey media.

Shame on you Scruffy.

They've been front and centre with their other red shirted mates trying to bring in rules to suit their agenda and they've reaped what they've sown as far as PSR goes.

As is often the case though, it's the fans who will be expected to pay the price.

All this after sacking 250 staff, giving the manager a new contract then paying him millions in compensation after sacking him less than 6 months later.

What a club!
