Apparently.

Was 10 years a few seasons ago

Many believe now, that there is no waiting list. June 2007, you could phone up and get a ST. United were desperatly trying to shift them.

Because of the new seats or because they were now too expensive?

Bit of both, in my opinion.

With the price hikes every season, more and more people are dropping out simply because they can't afford it. Which inevitably opens up more gaps for new ST holders to step in.

There is always someone to take your seat if you don't at United. Which is a problem if there ever was any real action taken over price hikes and the ACS.

The opening of the quadrants extended the capacity by an extra 10,000 or so. Leading onto more ST's available.

United couldn't get rid of ST's this season. The first few games of the season, there were always extra tickets coming up for members. These were the ST's they couldn't sell.

Wouldn't be suprised if the situation was replicated this year. Especially with more price rises suspected, you just never know.

Not a season ticket member but got tickets to the bolton and liverpool games and set me back £90 inc travel. Got offered one for villa game but to spend £150 in week on football is crazy even for United.

The problem lies in the fact that people who run the club know if they stick an extra £5 on games, the people who will stop goin will be replaced be others who will pay £40-50 per game as they will go to one game a season and thats it for them or will just try to get to the big one against the bigger clubs.

I've also heard this.

But how can we pay 6 cup games up front, when we may only have 3 all season?

They really haven't a clue.

I'd say there is now, as people have phoned up and expressed an interest. But with season tickets not on sale until pre-season, they can't sell any yet. SO they are put to one side.

Waiting list is a load of crap to an extent, and if your on the waiting list you will get offered one.

Are you on any other forums, by the way?
