After the crowd trouble which took place during Manchester United’s 1-0 away win against Lille in the Champions League, the French side have blamed Manchester United’s ticket policy. They claim that instead of dispatching the tickets on the day of kick off, United sent out the tickets a month in advance, giving the fans time to create fake tickets.
Manchester United have been quick to deny these claims, stating: “Tickets were distributed by recorded delivery 11 days before the game or for collection from February 1. We would normally send out tickets for our home games at Old Trafford six weeks before the match and we have no problems with forgeries.”
