Manchester United old fans confessed helplessly: The ticket price rises and the seats rise whenever they say they want to change, Manchester United really doesn t like it

October 4th: Manchester United's performance in recent years is not as good as before, and has been criticized by fans. The joint shareholder Ratcliff's "reducing costs and increasing income" measures have also affected the fans' viewing experience. The BBC interviewed a local fan named Michael Carney (middle of the picture), who told his feelings about being a Manchester United fan now.

Carney said: "Do I still love this club? What I love is history and tradition. Look at these people now, there is nothing to love from top to bottom."

Talking about the protests in front of the board box have disappeared

Carney: "They cleared everyone away. Now they have changed to padded seats, plus a meal and a few glasses of wine in Manchester before the game... I saw the advertisement, the location near my original seat costs £599, and I used to pay £23."

Season ticket seats were changed

Carney: "They did not have any personal contact with them. I haven't contacted me, and I didn't expect them to contact me. I received a stadium floor plan, marked with various optional seats like the theater seat selection. "

" I was finally arranged to an adjacent area but lower. My friends who were used to sitting around me were moved to two or three rows in the front row. I actually didn't want to sit there, but I accepted this position in order to keep in touch with them. "

" I received a notice that the season ticket only increased by 5%, but at the same time, the discount for retirees was cancelled. So now my seat is not as good as before, and the price has doubled. Go The year was £420, and now it is £840. "

vs. Manchester United's previous dark period

Carney: "This is the worst period in history. It's really heartbreaking. Although it was difficult from 1959 to 1962, the club's reconstruction period after the Munich air crash will inevitably have a low point. The 1970s were equally bleak, and Sir Matt Busby was exhausted after winning the Champions League, and the club's signing mistakes were finally relegated. But the fans were still enthusiastic at the time and the players were all out. When Steve Koper and Gordon Hill joined, you can see the budding of the recovery. And now I can't see hope at all."

Talking about the changes in football today

Carney: "I think the club has lost its soul. Not only Manchester United, but the whole football world is like this. Now it's just business, it's just money. Gone are the days of the past."

"Now there are many day tour fans coming from all over the world, just to play a card and say, 'I've been to Old Trafford and have seen Manchester United.' Manchester United does have money, but they still owe £1 billion in debt."

"They are discussing building a new stadium, but if they continue like this, there may be no need for a stadium that can accommodate 100,000 people."
