I think the way it's gone has been pretty fair. If ST holders were allowed 2 tickets, the second one could have gone to someone with no City history or points. Think though that 50 was a bit low for the second phase. Think 200 would have been fine for 3 days then anyone else with an account after that.Club can't win here. Before the announced the ticketing arrangements people were losing their minds at the thought of some season ticket holders, or all season ticket holders, being offered more than one ticket. Now people are having a go that season ticket holders weren't allowed to buy more!
Not sure what system you use other than the points system, which has been in place for years now, to ensure tickets go to our fans and not Man Utd supporters. There would be uproar if there was hundreds, if not thousands, of Man Utd fans in our end. If people haven't bothered to allocate tickets properly or decided to keep all the points on their account so they can get away tickets not sure there's really much the club can do about that. Obviously its not good if genuine fans that want to go miss out but its not like they sprung the points system on people just for this game.

I guess the problem would have been that if it was initially 2 tickets per ST holder, some could have missed out?
As I said at the start they should have allocated two per season ticket holder at a certain points level and calculated how many that would leave for a much lower points level
Animal Farm Sky Blue ArmyAll Season Ticket holders are equal, but some are more equal than others, right? This is a really grim, entitled viewpoint.
And us. We’d buy for others (all Cov fans) and sit in two groups in the stadium. Be together in the fan zone etcwould be useful for me !
Just refine the system to 2 per ST holder over a predetermined points threshold whilst simultaneously ensuring that non ST holders with a decent level of points will have an opportunity to buy at a later phase.Yeah, I guess it's a tough one isn't it. Like you say, two per ST holder means everyone else likely misses out.
I get the argument that 'should be ok as ST holders spend the most' etc but as a number of put on here, not everyone can get to every game. It looked like the fairest way of doing it so ST holders at least got their ticket and could sit with mates etc who are also ST holders.
The nirvana is somewhere between this and a free for all (slightly Captain Obvious comment).
It gives us food for thought for the allocations for the FA Cup Final
If you want two tickets buy two season tickets.As I said at the start they should have allocated two per season ticket holder at a certain points level and calculated how many that would leave for a much lower points level
That makes much more sense than two per season ticket. Or buy next season's season ticket and get a ticket.I'm shocked they didn't do a final 4 games plus semi final ticket package tbh
Don't respond to him. He used to use the fact I had a 12 match package AGAINST me lmaoYes I am very embarrassed. For you.
I used to be a season ticket holder, will be again in the future when my kids are a bit older, but I'm not right now, but still go to games. Is that a crime?
Honestly who gives a fuck.
I didn't even know it was possible to have a season ticket and assign multiple tickets from home games to your account. Next time there is a £5 cup offer or something rack those points up lads.Long shot -but I wonder if anyone could help me. Igo to pretty much every home game and the occasional away game when I am lucky enough to get tickets. Unfortunately for me, my Dad (STH) has bought all my tickets and we stupidly did not assign them to me. Does anyone have a spare account that they are not using that might be able to help me out ?
That's a good one as Utd fans might be tempted by 4 and then Wembley but they wouldn't commit to a ST.That makes much more sense than two per season ticket. Or buy next season's season ticket and get a ticket.
Why should we be embarrassed if we don't sell out. Bigger clubs than us have not sold out for a semi final and we have had a more important match there less than a year ago.are you on drugs?
it would be very embarrassing if we didn’t sell out. plus the club would be losing out on revenue. very strange statement

Maybe I am just not interested in slating everything the club does as a supporter.
yep - means that account has already had a ticket allocated to them so cant get a secondAnybody seen "client quota exceeded" when trying to assign them to network?
Yes . Happened when me and my lad were trying to buy at the same time. Could also be the case that others in your network already have a ticketAnybody seen "client quota exceeded" when trying to assign them to network?
Don't look as many as some are making out , looks about 5/6000 left at most
Are you logged in from diff account?Anybody seen "client quota exceeded" when trying to assign them to network?
If it's true that they didn't sell out last season are they likely to this year and then there is no worry about them buying our tickets and they can just go on sale.Should just make it a free for all for season ticket holders IF there is any left after next week
Unfortunately next weeks sale I think will be full of local chancers who have a booking history with us but will buy tickets to sell to Man Utd fans at an extortionate price
There's different ways to support the club.Well many say what they have. Let’s be honest if someone has only got 50 they’ve hardly supported the club anyway
I’ve got 1110
Oi - leave height of this please.His height I am led to believe
Being "not tall" is fine, some of my best friends are "short kings".Oi - leave height of this please.
I don’t get this not wanting to sit on your own. You can travel down with them have a beer before and meet up after the game. Personally I wouldn’t mind sitting on my own if I had to. You get chatting to people around you and we’re all rooting for the same outcome. Understand women and kids probably wouldn’t like it on their own but a man watching the game I think would be ok for 90 minutesAnyone who has pooled together will have done so by now, after the Purchase History sale you'll be looking at people who are not on the system; family members, day trippers or plastic Manc mates. I don't mind sitting on my own but if I say to my wife or workmate, I can get you a ticket but you'll be on your own, it's not happening!
I've DM'ed you mate.I gave up fretting over points for Wembley last year and go Club Wembley, doesn’t match the atmosphere of the checkatrade or league two playoff finals but at least you’re there, took a friend last May and taking my old man this time round. Happily use my points to buy another ticket if a fan really needs an extra but with no guarantee where it will be not sure what use that is.
I offer to buy my nephew in cov a season ticket every year as I live in London now but he’d rather support Chelsea
Not easy for the ticket/commercial team, dammed if you give too many to ST's, dammed if you don't give the chance for those who have built up some points for games and dammed for those that haven't allocated to people who they have purchased for or those paying cash on the gate.
how much can you make for selling a ticket to a Man Utd supporterMy accounts have been used so no more DMs pls
