My missus paid £51 the other week so I think you lot will have to pay the same, as I imagine you are both Category A-type games.'"
Yep. I thought that was quite reasonable. |

Those games a ridiculously expensive for United fans. From memory, Arsenal were about £55, Fulham £55 and West ham £50. In fairness to the clubs, they know they'll sell the tickets, so they'll charge more. The London clubs may not feel they have that luxury with City. Supply & demand and all that. |

| Quote: D.D. "I tell you what, Arsenal fans could learn a lot from the way the West Ham fans behaved tonight.
Carlos Tevez was applauded on and he was applauded for both goals but, tellingly, Craig Bellamy, who they did have some beef with, was booed just the once and then they moved on to doing what they were there for, supporting their own team.'"
Likewise Adebayor learning from Tevez  |

| Quote: Nemanja "The Stoke game apart, I actually think Nani has had a decent start to the season. His main problem is his poor distribution and crossing. Sometimes his thinking is off too, as he often makes the wrong decision, see some of his shooting on Saturday for example.
His biggest problem is that he is living in Ronaldo's shadow. There is a fairly good blog on the Beeb website saying that if he concentrated more on his own game and listened to Giggs on crossing / decision making etc instead of trying to mimmick Ronaldo it would make him a better player, I agree totally.
I actually think Valencia is a pretty decent player and will only get better. When him and Giggs are on the field we look like we can string a decent attack down both wings. Valencia has the ability to take men on and get a decent ball in. Apart from them two and Nani though we only have Tosic and Park.
IMO Park has been poor for a while now, and doesn't really offer much. He had two very very good chances versus City to either put us in front / stretch our lead, and both times he wasted it. We certainly looked much better when he went off. I've not seen any of our Reserve games this season so I have no idea how Tosic is getting on, I would like to see him get a few games this year.'"
Good point regarding Nani. Hopefully he will mateure as this season goes on and he will start making better decisions the more game time he gets. Saturday was a prime example, he was on a great break with Berba inside him and ended up fluffing the chance comepletely. I like Park personally and think he tends to play better in the bigger games. Only seen glimpses of Tosic and from what I have seen I am not impressed but that is probably a bit harsh on my park. Have you seen much of the other guy Laaic (sp) who is coming in Jan? |

Nani is infuriating at the moment. Can do the hard things really well, but sometimes makes a mess of simple things. I can see him improving though. I've not got my season ticket this year, but I can imagine he's getting plenty of stick from the boo boys. I think Park offers United an awful lot. In terms of work rate, and protecting his full back he is excellent. Totally different to Nani. Valencia is an excellent prospect, if he can improve his final ball then we've got a great player.
Tosic needs to bulk up if he's going to make it, far to slight at the moment. Lajic (sp) is an excellent prospect by all accounts, but I've only seen highlights - and a highlights package can make Sean Dundee look good. We'll know more when we get him over. |

As RT stated, it's a supply and demand issue. I am not justifying the high prices but we were not Category A games for Arsenal, Fulham and West Ham. That's why the tickets are cheaper. Will be interesting to see if we are Category A for any games in the capital this season.
Anyways, higher prices may price out scousers, like Mark, going to football |

I would say that you have never even been to an away game judging by your lack of awareness of away ticket prices. I would also guess that you don't go as many away games as I do.

Every game is an away game for you though? I'm guessing the London games are quite easy for you, so being a cockney does have it's perks I guess. To be fair I don't go alot of away, mainly due to finance as watching United and Warrington is quite expensive, you know what I mean? cup semi's and finals, challenge cup finals, stuff you'll never have to worry about. It all adds up. |

Very true. Swings and roundabouts. Maybe you should see if Maccys can give you more shifts?

Would Mr Tevez have responded the same had the West Ham fans been hurling moronic abuse at him for 75 minutes first though?

Tevez appears to be quite down to earth and modest though. Adebayor has an ego.
Thats the difference. Some United fans were giving Tevez abuse all last week but I doubt he wouldn't have celebrated had he scored last week at Old Trafford.
