Legal threats issued by Manchester United Supporters Trust have been withdrawn after the Premier League club were handed a reduced allocation for their impending showdown with Chelsea.
United are set to visit Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon (5.30pm) as the battle for Champions League spots intensifies before the World Cup break. However, the team will only be followed to the capital by 2,370 supporters after their ticket allocation was reduced from 2,994.
That decision was made owing to police concerns. MUST initially prompted Hammersmith and Fulham Council to issue a safety certificate for the fixture, which would have allowed more tickets to be sold, but have now opted to step back after suggesting that a judicial review might follow.
