Make a lot of money for Scruffy Jim at the Stadium of the North

The sooner Scruffy builds New Trafford and strikes a deal with the FA for semi-finals to be played there, the better.

Then we’ll get I’m not going to New Trafford and giving United my money.

I certainly would. A Metrolink to Trafford and back from the city centre. Fantastic!
 
I'll be there, with holidays and work commitments I haven't been since the Liverpool semi when Steffen gave Mane a tap in.

I drove and parked by Stanmore tube station, I think it's about 4 stops from Wembley, I'll be doing the same this year hopefully 3 times.

If it's going to be anything like the service from the Empti Etihad into town, I'd give it a swerve.

I’m sure Andy Burnham and Seb Coe will find the money to invest in more tram capacity and a new Metrolink station for United. Other than that, a walk up Chester Road only takes 20 minutes from town.

Pretty sure a rail strike was on the last time I went, surprise surprise and everywhere was packed.
We had to park on someone's drive, hopefully be a bit quieter this time, and we'll get on the station.
 
I wouldnt say I'm Wembleyed out more a case of priced out. Plus I think Wembley stadium is shit !

I have missed out on RM because I cant afford to attend group matches. Hotel, two days lost pay etc. Pre covid premier inn about 30quid post covid over a 100quid its bonkers

I hate travelling through London I have only attended the Etihad I think 4 times this season so probably dont qualify anyway, and only 1 fa cup tie.

It's great for local fans that you can qualify and to cut down on tourist, but I guess fans like us who are 300miles away we take the hit. It seem we can now only get tickets for the lesser games. I just feel us long serving fans who live miles away are being forgotten. It seems the local fans (fair enough) and tourists are being catered for but fans living miles away are being ignored

we would normally attention between 8 and 15 matches a season, but this season tickets have been like rocking horse shit. Plus the cheapest was 60quid. Feels like we are being pushed out.

Are you suggesting that people who live far away are given less restrictive criteria to local fans to buy at the same time?

If not, what would you suggest they do so you are not being pushed out or forgotten?

On the plus side, nobody who wants one should have any trouble getting a Champions League Final ticket, should we get there, with so many being Wembleyed Out.

I think it’s more a case of being Wembleyed Out for games that aren't finals. I can understand why people might be giving this one a swerve after an expensive twelve months as a City fan.

In 1993, Sheffield Wednesday went to Wembley four times in six weeks. By the time of the FA Cup final replay, there were empty seats in blocks in the Wednesday end.

After 13 years of regular trips down there, it's understandable why people are selective about when they want to go. If we can criticise people for missing FA Cup semi-finals then let's be calling out people who miss Charity Shields. Truth is, nobody should face ridicule for how they feel about it.

I am by no means saying I should have the same as local fans, or even less restricted than locals.

It just feels after going to matches with my lad since the early 2000's. (6 yrs old doing around trip of 600 miles was a nightmare lol)

This season it's been very hard to get tickets, it's just annoying when I turn the match on to see half n half scarfs. That's why I feel abit pushed out
