That feels like a rule they’d enforce for football but not sure there would be a need for rugby league. Feels like speaking to the Man U ticket office direct might be the best bet.



Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I thought about that.
But guess they won’t be open on a Sunday & if I wait until Monday I’ll likely miss the better chunk of ticket availability going on sale tomorrow from 10am.

It’ll teach me to not read the small print in the future!

I didn’t read the small print and purchased a kids (amongst 4 tickets), only to later notice my 5 year old wouldn’t be allowed in.

Do they enforce this?
Ticket states no exchanges so currently considering queueing in the morning and spending another £160 to see the first 160 down the drain!


I went in there for the World Cup Final too. Can see why they enforce an age limit, it’s cramped and young kids would have no chance because of the depth of the floor which doesn’t have a great stagger. Went to Spurs’ ground last year for the CC Final and it was on another level for quality for the safe standing area. United have just shoehorned it in and if you’re ’lucky’ enough you’ll get a seat next to a seat that turn in on each other on the bend so you wouldn’t even be able to sit down.

Thanks for that.
I ordered 4 tickets. My wife & I, her grandmother & the little lad.
I chose end of aisle/row seats at the end of the row and the end 2 seats don’t even have seats in front of them as they’re effectively at the top of the first row of steps after the concourse. Chose those so my lad has a chance to rest his legs without someone stood in front of him.
On that basis, I’m happy to take the risk on it in terms of view & facility. I’ll happily hold him up all night I did so recently at Wembley for a football match.
My concern is going over and being turned away on the day, leaving the lad upset (he’s only 5, mind - and it’ll be his first ever RL game) and the money wasted.

OT is so pathetic isn’t it! We got sat on a bend last year for the Leeds v Saints GF. Me and my mate are about 6ft 3 and we had no chance of getting our legs down. I sat sideways and my mate just went for a pint under the stand and once the game kicked off, he found a couple of seats near us that he could fit in.

Guess this means I'm in with the Wigan fans on Saturday then. Should be fun :D






The only reason they look up to you is because they chose to kneel.

Does anyone know why you can't select a block online? You can only choose your ticket price so it feels like pot luck.

Just been told by a mate that we've sold out our end. Still loads of people left in the queue too.

You can't even access online sales on the website when I tried just now.

I don't want to complain but it is things like this that you only find in RL. Can't think of any other sports or entertainment event Iv been to over the last decade where you cant go online, pick your preferred seat and pay within a few minutes.

The RFL site was awful last night but you could (eventually) pick your seats. There wasn’t a great deal more than singles left down our end when I looked earlier but they do seem to open up blocks randomly, so worth a try.
