Or give them a period as a branch before they can qualify for tickets. Something along the lines of having been a branch for at least two years and having met certain requirements. The idea that I can set up a branch today and get tickets for the next available game is simply absurd, but it goes on.Sounds like that's why they set the branch up - played the system and it's paid off.
The only solution would be not to give branches tickets - but that's unfair on the many branch's who've been running things fairly for years.
No win situation and wish everyone good luck
I used to think it was 6 months before a branch could start to request tickets could be wrong.Or give them a period as a branch before they can qualify for tickets.

Right ok. Well last year I got about row 8 on top tier and had loads of choice so presumably that’s not going to be available from what you say? I’m tomorrow morning next windows and was similar last year.The 70 quid in teir 1 seem to have all gone and teir 3 the rows available at 70 are further and further back
Like the Spurs game !!this game doesn't do it for me as a seat counter, there is no jeopardy at all, we need people saying they are going to give it a miss, it totally ruins it
No ours reopened before the real madrid tie allocation but on an invite only basisI thought supporter club membership was closed for the season at Christmas, then reopened again in the summer?
I don’t think anyone thinks that. But an allocation has to be given to supporters clubs. It’s how the club and the supporters clubs dish out the tickets is the issue.What the fuck though makes a supporters club member better than a non supporters club member?
Ok got rhough on the phone as the website wasnt working. and i know people on here had said the best seats on tier one were never on sale. But i figured they meant 142 and 143, i've always managed 141 on day one of sales (and then been annoyed when 142 and 143 pop on a week later to people with less points).
But the woman on the phone said 141 142 and 143 were not being put on sale, it was 140 or somewhere else.
I'm disgutsed that for that money they want you to sit on the corner flag view when 141 was always available for teh 18 other bloody wembley trips.
So where are 141 and 142 and 143 going???????? Which package deal are they going to turn up on? Like i say i know 142/3 often did, but to now take 141 away too. What is the point of being on day ones sales.
And i would left it and risked waiting, but teh website isnt working for me and supporter services said it could take "a few days". So ffs i'm fucking angry.
They've probably been given to players and staff etc they usually get the posh seatsAlways take the posh level 2 tier, as there is nothing better than being surrounded by tourists and half and half scarf wearers. Actually - it's quite fun as we like to sit as close to the neutural "Centre Circle' corporate wankers, which always seems to always be full of Unit*d fans - for a good bit of banter, and utterly confuse the toursits around us. But when I logged in this morning, two entire center blocks have been taken out by the Club for packages - very wierd - so we are saving 200-300 quid and have headed behind the goal, but I am sure the posh ones will be on sale online in a few weeks for a couple of grand each.
At a complete guess, I’d say stewards have always had a shout of getting cup final tickets. Of course, one dickhead United fan is making a big thing out of it, no doubt implying that we can’t sell out otherwise, but what the stupid **** doesn’t realise is that all their official car park staff got 2 tickets each for THAT game at the Nou Camp in 1999.According to Twitter the stewards have got an allocation and are being invited to apply for two tickets each.
Obviously club staff getting an allocation is as old as the trees but I’m surprised at casual labour getting a go.
Wonder if the girls on the bar get some out of the pot aswell?
So it’s a piss take. Unless all 33 are season ticket holders on the fa cup scheme? Why does being in a supporters club make anyone more worthy?I don’t think anyone thinks that. But an allocation has to be given to supporters clubs. It’s how the club and the supporters clubs dish out the tickets is the issue.
In my example, I said if me who goes a lot and in a supporters club getting a ticket compared to one guy for example hasn’t been all season and doesn’t apply for away games through there but suddenly puts his request in for a final ticket and getting one. That seems unfair. But my branch at least got all 33 they requested so…?
I'm row 15 & paid £70 - so they've charged an extra £45 for the difference of one row.Wanted a £70 ticket a few rows from the front behind the goal. None of them left so got a £115 one on row 16.
£45 more to sit 7 rows back from a £70 one!
And until old Jim tightened the purse strings recently, all 1,100 staff members were offered 2 tickets, free of charge, when they reached cup finals. With complimentary travelAt a complete guess, I’d say stewards have always had a shout of getting cup final tickets.
