"Your tickets are secure, are you f**king sure"
Despite Manchester United’s assurances that digital NFC tickets are fully secure, a major flaw in the @SeatGeek ticketing platform leaves supporters highly vulnerable to unauthorised access. By knowing a fan's Supporter ID and just their surname or postcode, anyone can unauthorisedly view, download, and use their tickets without the owners knowledge.
This has already resulted in legitimate ticket holders being turned away at both home and away matches because their tickets had already been scanned.
The issue was deliberately kept quiet during the season to minimise disruption, but with the Premier League aiming for fully digital tickets next season, it must be prioritised over the summer. The risk is exacerbated by a club culture where fans have widely shared their Supporter IDs for ticket-forwarding purposes, and instances where Manchester United emails have inadvertently exposed this information. The author urges @SeatGeek and the club to implement a secure, user-led authorizlsation process rather than relying on flawed off-the-shelf solutions.

More Monday night football for MUFC.
Both April home league games switched. Zero - absolutely zero - consideration given to what match going fans think or want.
Matheus Cunha on The United Strand:
“Sometimes, people are more concerned with getting five wins because of the haircut. I'm more focused on the 15 points, I don't care about his haircut at all. It’s not very motivating for us.”

#MUFC
Saturday's game will commemorate the 68th anniversary of the Munich Air disaster.
15 minutes before kick off, the PA system will play the Flowers of Manchester. We encourage all #mufc supporters to be in the stadium for this and to raise your scarfs whilst it's being played.
The feedback for this one has been off the scale.
Still boggles my mind, after all these years of making 'em.
It will be taken down later tonight. I've pushed my luck with the copyright police long enough.
If you missed it last night or fancy a rewatch, then move sharpish.
