Hopefully this current boom will be maintained, crowds have been unreal the last few seasons, in relegation, in championship and even more last year with more impressive season ticket sales this time round

Almost to the point where the old talk of a hard core of 5-6k for us is now 7-8k Arabs every home game, things can fluctuate but I feel there is still the same buzz and enthusiasm about Utd as ever

Would be interesting to see if get to a semi final and final in the near future to see what we'd carry to those

Was looking at the ST sales stadium map earlier and I reckon there can only be about 1000 left available (if that) in the GF only. Given the ET and GF combined are about 8,500 (?) capacity, we must be over the 7,000 now. Brilliant stuff.
