Footballers! Have you heard the news? The world giant Manchester United is to bring a rise in prices for season tickets. So, if you are an existing season ticket holder who attends games at Old Trafford this season, your hold for the season ticket may be lost come next season because all season tickets are being put up for sale.
The Ups and Downs of Manchester United Season Tickets
To begin with, what is a season ticket? It is a special pass through which one can attend every single game that Manchester United holds in Old Trafford throughout the whole season.
Price Rise: Damn Truth.
The club declares they are going to be levied with a charge for these season tickets. A Price Hike of about 5% is in the air. Five percent may seem less to some, yet if the price of season tickets is already very high, then this could eventually make a difference. At a ticket price of £1,000, the ticket price is increased by £50 due to the 5% hike.
