Manchester United fans have hammered their seating allocation against Arsenal after seeing plenty of empty seats at the game.
United have only received an allocation of 5,233 tickets for the FA Cup fourth round clash on Friday night after the London club appealed to the FA over safety concerns.
Away teams are entitled to an allocation of up to 15%, a percentage which would represent 9,000 tickets for the latest encounter. However, United have only be given 8.7% for the game at the Emirates.
Why are there so many empty seats? And we were oversubscribed for away applications. Weird.
