Manchester United Fans Condemn Ticket Price Hikes and Warn of Rebellion

Supporters criticize Sir Jim Ratcliffe's mid-season price increases, citing financial strain, poor team performance, and risks to fan unity.

Manchester United Supporters Trust (MUST) has urged Sir Jim Ratcliffe to freeze ticket prices, warning that recent increases could alienate fans and harm the club's future.
Matchday ticket prices were raised to £66 per game in December, with concessions for children and pensioners removed, sparking widespread discontent among supporters.
The club has cited over £300 million in losses over the past three years and the risk of breaching Financial Fair Play rules as reasons for the price hikes and other cost-cutting measures.
Fans have linked the rising ticket costs and growing dissatisfaction to a worsening atmosphere at Old Trafford, potentially impacting player performance and sponsor relations.
MUST has proposed alternative solutions, including closer consultation with fan groups, freezing prices for members and season ticket holders, and exploring fan investment opportunities.
