Manchester United fans send Glazers message in response to Old Trafford question

Manchester United fans have been sent a survey for their views on the club's plans for the development of Old Trafford.

The survey, which was sent to season ticket holders, official members, Executive Club members and other supporter groups via email yesterday (Wednesday) will allow the club to hear from their fans ahead of the stadium's re-design.

The club announced back in April that management consultants Legends International and architectural firm Poplus had been given the green light to oversee the transformation of the United stadium. The news comes following heavy criticism from United fans towards the Glazer family for allowing Old Trafford to become out-dated compared to other Premier League stadiums.

The views of fans are starting to filter through as the first set of surveys are sent back to the club:

In a statement released by the club, Collette Roche, chief operating officer, said: “We want to hear from as many fans as possible during this process to ensure we can capture all their views and understand what our supporters want from a world-class stadium in the future.

“This important survey is the first stage of our wider consultation with fans and will be followed by focus groups and further targeted surveys to make sure fan voice is at the heart of our decision-making process.”

United have said that the survey should take no longer than 20 minutes to complete and that the results of the survey will "help shape world-class facilities we can all be proud of".
