In order to apply, you have to be a ST holder, and been to all 10 Home cup games this season, and then as many away CL games as possible. 6 CL away games given the highest priority etc.
So, lowest away attendance was probably at Bursor, where there were about what, 800 United fans? So assume all of those get a ticket... then work your way down the other CL games (2000 away at Valencia? 3000 away at Rangers? etc etc) and how many of the same people went to the away games? Over the 6 games it might have only been 5000 people?
So that still leaves 20k tickets... so maybe in a few days they'll reduce the application requirements?
My mate is an ST holder, has been to 9 of the 10 home cup games, and been to 3 CL away games, but is not allowed to apply as he needed all 10 home games - he was well pi**ed off...!! So yesterday he booked on a trip with Thomas Cook to get a 1st class train from Manchester, stay in a 4 star hotel, and sit in the £250 seat for the game - total price £800...!! He hasnt told his wife yet.
