Manchester United have confirmed they will replace executive seating in the Stretford End with general admission season tickets.
The club announced on Monday morning that general admission season tickets will be sold in the Stretford End, instead of executive seating, from the conclusion of the 2023/24 season, which means the changes will be made for the 2024/25 campaign.
The decision to replace the executive area was reached following constructive consultation with the club’s fans’ advisory board.

A statement from the club read: "The Stretford End has, for decades, been the matchday home of some of Manchester United’s most passionate supporters, while also being synonymous with many of the most iconic goals in the history of Old Trafford.
"Following requests from fans, the club worked with its Fans’ Advisory Board to review the presence of executive seating within the Stretford End, in support of successful ongoing efforts to enhance the Old Trafford atmosphere.
"It has now been agreed that all the seating in the Stretford End will be returned to general admission for the start of the 2024/25 season. The decision adds to a series of fan-centric steps taken by the club following consultation with fan representatives, including the installation of rail seating and the creation of a dedicated atmosphere section in the Stretford End."
The Manchester United Supporters' Trust (MUST) reacted: "MUST welcomes the club’s announcement that the whole of the Stretford End will be restored to traditional fans from August 2024, with Execs relocated."
