Sat in same seat in J Stand for over 25 years. If I'm forced to move, my Season Ticket will NOT be renewed. It's a disgrace. Loyal fans should be given the choice. There should be singing sections of blocks of 50-100 in every stand, not just an entire stand - won't work & you'll have lost thousands of loyal fans in the process.

J Stand has always been full of loyal fans who do their bit to sing. Disgraceful to move them without consultation. If a singing section is needed, why not move the away fans like with the 1st trial?

In this case it has to be LOYALTY over atmosphere, what next scrap the loyalty pot and give the away tickets to the singing section

Implementing this without a full ballot of members is disgraceful. Consultation with a select few is just wrong.

In agreement with all the above no consultation for us, not like the few that voted for the singing section, disgraceful way to find out decision. Thought after such a long time being a ST they would have at least had the courtesy to inform us all individually.

SEF,Tufty,Boyle and others have betrayed the J-Standers so they can have their end to massage their inflated egos.Boyle and Tufty won't have to move. coincidence?I think not.Shame on United and shame on the"fans" who have trodded on loyal supporters who were at Old T before them.What price loyalty?

SEF,Tufty,Boyle and other so called fan groups have got their section to massage their own inflated egos.Loyal J-Standers, many whom have been at Old T long before this group of traitors will be moved elsewhere,Is it a coincidence that Tufty and Boyle won't have to move seats to enjoy their section?Look for Tufty's disgraceful tweet about Darren Fletcher's illness. The support has been the only positive this year,

Bad idea, poorly executed. Embarrassing to be a red with muppets coming up with stuff like this!

Club pandering to a few self publicists. Singing should be spontaneous not orchestrated.

Not only get rid of the singing section in J Stand but also let's stop those idiots SEF & Tufty from being the "voice of the fans" while we're at it.

No option, you're out...all the football grounds I've been to have the vocal support behind the goals, but due to the poor stadium and roof design, how many football grounds have a roof that is lower at the front than it is at the back of the stand, look at St.James Park, Emirates, Stadium of Light,etc, and wanting to put executive seats in the Stretford End, MUFC effectively killed the atmosphere at OT years ago. The ST holders in J stand have had no consultation at all, it's like it or lump it. Why should we have to look forward to having our season ticket price 'frozen' for one season and then have to pay extra in the coming seasons if we move to a more expensive section of the ground. We have sat in J stand for 20 years, building friendships with supporters around us, but that doesn't come into consideration...we are just a membership number. Communication has been zero, although when MUFC take money from our account for Cup games etc, I receive emails and text messages, but all I had about the move was an email telling me how my support has been appreciated this season!! My son and I were in J stand for the Fulham game, had to stand all through the game, but isn't standing against the law in football grounds?? Didn't see anyone asking supporters to sit!!! Will the stand now become an unofficial standing area?? Lets get this straight, all the supporters I have spoken to around me are totally against this move, put the singing section on the bottom tier behind the Stretford End/ Scoreboard end, that's where theyshould be.

It is a disgrace that the j stand supporters some of whom have been there for years get evicted because of a joke singing section that most fans don't even want.

Definitely not, an absolute embarrassment and not needed when we have the stretford end. And moving people from their season ticket seats they have held for years is just not acceptable.
