I won't be able to keep up payments for the season ticket cup scheme as and when they come which would mean i'd forfeit my whole season ticket This is the exact point why others are up in arms and i'm finding out the hard way as to why a lot of people didn't or couldn't renew their tickets Even though United is my heart I don't think i could let myself get into trouble with my bank so I can keep up with things. I feel sick right now

So this is the end for all ticket holders? You can't renew it bcos they raised up the price right? Well at this point if the club didn't care about their true fans i would start to protest...like boycott one of the biggest game of the season leaving OT empty. Im so sorry for u hun really thats not fair for people like you who goes to the matches every wknd!!
I know may sound silly and i dnt know if United give the same service to their fans,but here in Italy Genoa C.F.C decided that all the ticket holders can pay the season tickets in 3 times(sorry i didn't know how to explain it) for example South Stand cost around 180 euros (which is nothing compare what u have to pay in England) but if you cannot afford to pay 180 euros all in once you can do it paying 60 euros at month,i think its a good idea especially to the ones who cannot afford to pay -i dnt know more than- £200 all in once. this would increase the number of ticket holders as well.

Kokka, it's not that the seasons ticks have risen, it's that you have to pay for ALL cup games, even if you don't go to them. I have no problems with this, as I'm gonna go to all of them anyway, but it's fucking disgusting to those who can't afford it.

I don't think season ticket holders should be forced to pay for all cup matches, it would be a great option but it significantly raises the prices for those who are already struggling to pay for season tickets.

Thanks for the support guys Its a real piss take I know. I'd been waiting over ten years to be able to afford a season ticket but now I tried and still can't its bloody awful! The tool who thought of this idea should be shot and have his nuts ripped off!

I feel for you, mate I can only imagine how I'd feel if I were you. It's horrible what's happening with ticket prices. I mean, if you, the supporters who live close there and who have been going to matches all your life can't afford to go, than what has this world come to?! I live far away and I've come to terms with the fact that I can't go to many games, but if I lived there and still couldn't go, I would be quite frustrated! Something has to be done about the ticket price!

I feel sorry for you.
This is what people warned about when the takeover occurred.
Of course, we were told to stop being silly. And some idiotic people still say there's no problem.
This ATC issue is an utter disgrace, but the only thing that hurts a business is if you withhold your custom.
Chin up mate.

We are before the Chelsea game, not that the club will listen as it's so out of touch with the fans.

Mate, that really sucks. Really sorry. The new cup scheme is a f**king disgrace.
It's no long term solution but could you sell your tickets for individual games that you dont want to go to to friends/family/colleagues to help with the payments. Theres always someone looking for a one-off ticket.
Good luck
