FA accused of exploitation by Manchester United and Chelsea fans who face ticket hikes of more than 30 per cent to watch FA Cup final

The Football Association has been accused of exploitation by fans of both clubs who face ticket hikes of more than 30 per cent to watch this year's FA Cup Final.

Supporters of both Manchester United and Chelsea have hit out at the 'extortionate' price of seats, with those with the best view costing no less than a staggering £145.

Prices for an adult ticket start at £45 - a decrease of £1 on last year. However, the other three categories are priced at £80 (£65 last year), £115 (£85) and £145 (£115).
