Apparently Jurgen Klopp will be promoting his own brand teeth whitener and whoever Man U's new manager is by then will be promoting himself as the clubs saviour ????

Cheap seats B5000. Rather drop B2000 at a bar and choose my own squad of full strength "players" trying to score on me!

Probably better off investing the B5000 in a 2nd hand ps4, a copy of some football game and play the match yourself

Of course playing with oneself is often an alternative , but then no difference to those folk paying stupid money for a ticket ????

I guess it'll be a B team or some such but we might wander up to BKK for the evenings entertainment.

Yep he got the Hollywood white #1 grade crowns that's for sure lol ????

Ya gotta wack the ol' sunnies on when someone with these opens their mouth hahaha ???? ridiculously unnatural.

Me, I have grade 3 white, lovely natural white they are too ... not neon-sign ridiculousness. He's a funny b.gger though and expresses some hilarious things!

 

cheapest seat 5,000 baht that’s two weeks wages to the average working Thai I can see the stadium being half empty at least ! As a life long LFC supporter and a season ticket holder prior to moving to Thailand  I won’t be going I will watch it on LFCgo tv  £45 per year .

As long as it keeps growing [which it does] I don't mind the bleached colour look.

Oh NO, I was thinking of all those Thais, who you'll meet in old ages with black hair.

I myself prefer the natural look. Same as you..

Will they be sending out these tickets via post ?

Someone with your background experience as you have outlined, should know better - This match will be a guaranteed sell out - They only went on sale from 10.00am & all the cheaper tickets have gone already.

Only 15k & upwards tickets available right now.

 

Anyone got a spare brief ????

I heard that the 25k ones were first to sell out. Only a few 'mid range' left now. Maybe they underpriced the match????

No joke mate, they are selling out fast - I reckon they will be all gone by Monday - I sent a couple of emails back home to a few of the boys to try & get me one but it seems that both our clubs have no say in the prices -  Looks like i could be on the Jib for this one.

5000, 7000, 12000, 25000 tickets all long gone - United & Liverpool have kept a couple of sections free for themselves - But you need a code - I just managed to grab a 7000 baht brief in the United end ????.

 

Anyone still need a ticket, let me know & I'll sort you out the code.

Not too sure they are his teeth......I think he just borrows them from Firmino

The flight to Thailand is cheaper than the ticket.  Crazy.

Flight from where brother ???

A lot of tickets in the hands of touts now. Add in all the freebies for corporates and VIPs and it will be interesting to see the prices outside on match day (well, more like on social media the days before). 

Gonna be ETH's First match in charge of United - I'll be there on the 12th - Anyway on here actually going to the match ???

Only just found out my dates getting back to Thailand so I thought I'd jump on the ticket site to see what's left. 12,000 thb seats are the cheapest. 36,000 for the three of us, bloody no chance. What a joke. 

A friendly!!!! - not if the boys  from Pattaya  have anything to do with it.

 

the teams will be wearing the relevant shirts, but i confidently predict you'll be hard pressed to know, or recognise, many of the players.
