It is our position that public safety must be the number one factor in any such decision, with the ability to provide a secure environment for the participants, staff and officials being a particular priority.
It was clearly not possible for this to be guaranteed today due to a situation which escalated rapidly.
We will continue to have dialogue with Manchester United, the Premier League and the local authorities to find a suitable date to reschedule.
As soon as we have this information we will update our supporters accordingly.
