I would have liked to have been there when security tried to take Morgans "own" car from him believing it was a company car

He was stripped of his electronic pass giving him access to the paper's offices. Then almost immediately Paul Vickers, a senior legal executive in the group, and a security guard frog-marched him to the lift and out of the building so fast he did not even collect his jacket or mobile phone.

Outside, Mirror officials even tried to relieve Morgan of his car, a Mercedes 500, believing it belonged to the company.

United have been slagged off by many of their fans today on sky sports news. It seems that they are levying an extra 3% charge on season tickets for those paying by credit card.
Some fans turned up at the ground with bags of pound coins in protest. At least the shareholders will be happy.

Yep its an IMUSA protest:

At midday today IMUSA members will be taking pound coins to the ticket office to pay for season tickets in protest at the plc's extension of the '3% ticket tax' to season ticket and LMTB renewals.


David Gill has admitted that the plc are exploiting fans euphemistically referring to the 3% as 'recovery' for the loss of TV revenue. IMUSA estimates this 'recovery' will cost fans £750,000 on top of the cost of season tickets, or the equivalent of the fee paid to Louis Saha's agent.

'The recently announced ticket price rises for next season are bad enough but the extension of the 3% 'ticket tax' to season ticket and LMTB renewals is a step too far,' said IMUSA Press Officer Mark Longden.


IMUSA has asked the club to drop the charge and extend the deadline but the club has refused. Now the fans' group is asking supporters to register their protest in anyway they can. The banks charge the club more for paying in cheques and cash than they do for payments made with plastic and some reds have already responded to IMUSA's call by paying for their renewal in pound coins.

With most Reds having only received their renewal notices last week and with the FA Cup Final this coming weekend IMUSA is aware that most fans will have to swallow the 3% ticket tax.

'We recognise that most fans will have no choice but to pay by credit card but we are asking those that can lay their hands on cash to join the protest at 12 o'clock today Monday 17th May at the ticket office,' said Longden.

Fans can also register their protest by paying for their renewal in multiple cheques, as the club has to pay bank transaction charges for each cheque that they bank.

With United's own fans' charter stating that 'no transaction charge will be levied for renewals made by credit cards and IMUSA has asked the Premier League and The Independent Football Commission to intervene and force the club to uphold the promise made by the plc.
