I hold my hands up and say fair play to them for doing that. The article suggests they tried to discuss a lower price initially but sevilla were having none of it so united took it upon themselves to look after their own fans first and foremost. Sure it's at the expense of other football fans but it's been made very clear it's a result of one clubs greed and all backlash will be directed towards sevilla and rightly so. We've been forced to pay similar prices against Spanish opponents in the past, it's about time somebody attempts to do something about it.hopefully we follow suit when we next draw a Spanish team or any other club looking to milk the away fans.

Seems the general consensus amongst Bluemooners is 'fair play to the rags' (for increasing the Seville tickets).
Hang on a minute.... They're protesting that their fans are getting ripped off. Fine, they are. We all agree that. So they then proceed to act in the same abhorrent way towards the innocent fans of Seville by ripping them off in the exact same way. So we are judging this as 'fair do's'. Bollocks it is. The rags are just as bad as Seville 100% and in my opinion shows them up to be the classless bunch of cocks that I knew they were all along.
The correct way of dealing with it would have been to extend the hand of friendship to the Seville fans by charging no more than normal, no matter what they charge at the other end. Let the world decide what a disgrace Seville FC is but don't get tarred with the same brush which is exactly what the rags have done here.

I get you but they’ve done that by doing this and making a big deal about it. Let Sevilla fans now put pressure on their own club.

Seem Seville have reported United now to EUFA for not giving them 5% of the total allocation. Just like Jose and Conte it’s getting petty in the boardroom. Funny!

I'm with you on this one and whilst i can understand why they have done it this way, they had the chance to take the moral high ground here on behalf of all football away fans and make it clear just how appallingly Sevilla were behaving.

So much money in the CL as well that clubs could pay for tickets for away fans anyway without even breaking a sweat!

Aye, we all know it's the United boards job to force United fans to buy overpriced cup tickets, not Sevilla's.

Spot on. They have lost an opportunity for good PR
