Manchester derby - order of ticketing?

[chinnie]

Hi.

I look forward to travelling up there to Manchester for the derby match on 30 Nov. As of now, the club allows those with high loyalty points to purchase the tickets first and the club website mentions that more info will come should tickets remain.

Does anyone know the order that the club will allow supporters to buy the tickets for the match of this nature in the past seasons? Do they usually give priority to those with citycard, or rather general supporters who used to attend matches in the past (perhaps to avoid Man Utd fans unfairly grab seats in the home stands)? I do not hold a citycard and the only match I attended was against Villa last season which I was booked on my friend's accesscard.

On another issue, how long does it take for citycard holders to get loyalty points credited on their accounts?

Many thanks.

Its all done to loyalty points. If you have a citycard, you get priority before those with an access card only I think.

Citycard holders points get credited straight away.

When you sign up you get 50 points on your card, and when you order your tickets on the os the points go on usually between 24 t 36 hours after they have been confimed, as it has pending next to the match ticket you buy


Citycard with 500 loyalty points – Wednesday 22nd October
Citycard with 400 loyalty points – Thursday 23rd October
Citycard with 300 loyalty points – Friday 24th October
Citycard with 200 loyalty points – Monday 27th October
Citycard with 100 loyalty points – Tuesday 28th October
Citycard with 70 loyalty points – Wednesday 29th October
Citycard with 60 loyalty points – Thursday 30th October

A further Sales Criteria will be announced from Friday 7th November should tickets remain.
Joining Citycard is easy and you'll receive 50 points straight away.
