SUITE FA INTEREST IN THOSE NEW EXEC BOXES

Manchester United's plan to raise a cool £265,000 a year from their new state-of-the-art executive boxes has had to be revised because of a lack of interest.

United marketed their so-called Super Suites which have been constructed in the newly-developed quadrant areas of Old Trafford - at a staggering £264,375.

That was three times the cost of the most expensive boxes already available at the stadium but, with so few takers, the club's owners have had to slash their asking price.

Suites have now been made available at £205,000 in a bid to rescue United from embarrassment.
