Full MUST Statement on Manchester United’s mass ticketing sanctions exercise
https://t.co/cP8vSy5Rcw
The club have started a new stadium survey and there have been a number of questions from supporters raised with us. In particular how will they ensure they can identify and verify match going supporters and break down between STHs, Members, Execs etc. This is an important point and no doubt many match going fans will have been asking the same question. There is significant distrust on this issue so we raised this with the club today.
The club said that validation is done prior to analysis so they will weed out submissions by bots and fake accounts. So they will only include submissions from supporters using the custom link in the email or, for those who did not receive the email (including because of email preferences), they can use the website link and their submission will be validated using their supporter ID, name and email.
They will then be able to segment the data based on supporter type.
Only the first received submission from any validated supporter will be included.
Obviously there are strong views held by many supporters on the new stadium project but hopefully this information is useful to those who were raising this question.
Also, along with TRA and 1958 we requested that the results of the previous survey, in particular the new stadium vs redevelopment question, were published including the breakdown by supporter type and we're told this has now been done.
Glazers fucked our finances but even they weren't stupid enough to compound that by directly targeting our matchgoing fanbase especially at a time when the team were failing on the pitch. Price hikes and aggressive ticketing policies just at the time we should have been circling the wagons. They were warned, but were convinced they knew better
@MUFC_Naughty1 But who'd have thought new owners could join them and actually make things much worse both on and even more so, off the pitch. That is an extraordinary achievement
I remember an article from @MU_ST who said with the Glazers in charge we will become useless like their NFL team. I didn’t believe it back then but they were sure fucking right about it
Matchgoing fans who contribute to the game’s spectacle deserve better, say #MUFC supporters, after their trip to Palace in December was moved to an anti-social Sunday night KO slot.
@MU_ST said: ���Once again, match-going supporters come last."
Today marks three years since football lost a global icon.
How lucky we were to have Sir Bobby Charlton as the consummate ambassador for Manchester United, England and the sport we love.
Easy to admire. Impossible to forget. Eternal in our hearts ❤️

For years and years since 2005. Which is six years longer than I've been asking Qs about City's financial cheating under Mansour's ownership, supported by the apparatus of the state of the UAE.
Next question?
Hi David, have you or your PR company ever been paid by Man City or any related MCFC entity for PR advice and / or promotion of their narrative, or received benefit-in-kind gifts for tweeting / writing / promoting their version of events? Thanks in advance for your swift response
It's always pretty poor given where I sit but the crowd at OT seems to be getting more and more touristy by the game. Players who can't be arsed on the pitch and surrounded by fans who cant be arsed in the stands. Very little to enjoy at home games ATM.
Request: If you see or hear MCFC current / former employees (especially players and managers) giving pro-City views on the "115" case, pls tweet me examples / links as I research whether they have paid deals with City to do so, for example as paid ambassadors for the club. Thanks
