FURIOUS Manchester United fans have lashed out at the club yet again.
That’s after being told to PROVE they went to games in order to renew their season tickets.
The Mail claims United have introduced tougher rules for renewals next season.
Fans must have their tickets scanned at a minimum of 10 league home games.

And they have raised the issue with the club as affected fans look for a speedy resolution.
Supporters are already annoyed after United had 600 tickets REMOVED by police for this month’s trip to Chelsea.

“The FA Cup final is also scheduled for 5.30pm.”
