​Man Utd fans warned to be vigilant during Rostov visit

Published on: 08 March 2017

Manchester United have advised their fans heading to Rostov this week for a Europa League last-16 tie not to wear the club's colours while in the Russian city.

United's head of ticketing and membership Sam Kelleher has sent a letter to fans travelling to Rostov regarding the issue.

It says: "For your safety and security you are advised not to wear Manchester United colours when in Rostov, or attract attention to your presence in the city.

"It is also advised you stay in groups where possible and do not walk around the city alone. It is not just opposition football fans who may potentially pose a risk to your safety.

"Incidents of serious disorder during the European Championships in France last summer, involving violent individuals and groups emanating from Eastern Europe, should be remembered when considering your movements and actions and any potential risk."
