PSL corporate affairs manager Lunga Williams confirmed late on Tuesday that league had overruled an earlier decision by United not to sell tickets through Computicket. “Computicket has just opened to the public as we speak,” said Williams.
United had earlier said they would only sell through selected outlets as Computicket was “too expensive”.
“It has been too costly for us to use Computicket, their prices remain the same even if the event attracts only about 100 people as it happened in Mamelodi a few months ago,” said United PRO David Skosana.

“The Premier Soccer League was initially against the use of our own venues for the ticket sales but we explained our position. We would have loved to use the post office outlets but it was too late. Post offices are much better because they are easily accessible to everybody.”
As such, tickets (selling at R20) will still be available at the following outlets:
United have lined up some exciting entertainment for those who will arrive early. Due to heavy volumes of traffic on the N1 in the afternoon, supporters are encouraging to arrive early at the stadium.
