Fan consultation on Old Trafford Regeneration launches today

You may have seen reports about fan consultation on the future of the stadium (and Old Trafford Regeneration more generally) following the club announcement here:

You may have seen MUST quoted on this:

"Enhancing fan engagement on key issues is at the heart of MUST’s mission and there are few more important questions at any football club than the future of the stadium. Our primary objective through the Task Force is to ensure that supporters' voices have been heard when the club comes to make their decision about the future of Old Trafford, so we believe this process is of utmost importance."
 

"We'd encourage all fans to share their views and continue to engage throughout all aspects of the consultation process."

MUST has been lobbying the club on this to ensure fans are properly consulted, and the club will be sending an email at 4pm today to invite supporters to participate in the first phase via a survey. If you receive the email we encourage you to complete the survey. The deadline for responses is 23:59 (BST) on Sunday 6 October 2024.

The survey will be followed by focus groups and “Town Hall” meetings, but this is just the start of the fan consultation process, and we expect it to intensify once the club make the decision on the stadium (new build or redevelopment) so that fans have input over the coming years into all the things that matter.
