Re: A message to the club regarding £40 price for HOME leg.
Must admit, had a sharp intake of breath when I saw the price, but I would imagine City have worked as hard as possible to keep the price down, while United will have been working as hard as possible to drive it up - they are desperate for cash remember.
Probably nothing our club could do. I would imagine we said thirty, they said fifty and we've met them in the middle.
Not particularly knocking United either - they have to be hardnosed about it. Guaranteed sell out, most of the income from our fans, price not really relevant because the demand will easily be there... They do really need the money, so not at all surprised.
All we can do is bend over and take it. They won't be able to see us smirking at their plight that way either.
