Manchester United have had their plea for an increased ticket allocation ignored by Manchester City.

United reportedly wanted an increase on what they perceived to be a small amount of tickets for last season's win over City at the Etihad.

According to the Daily Mail, City have listened to the demands but only increased the allocation by 70 seats.

"The extra 70 is seen as a bit of a mickey-take, and it hasn't gone down well," said a source quoted by the Daily Mail.

"United aren't happy with it, but they don't want to get involved in a slanging match."
