MAN UTD SETS UP URGENT ENQUIRY INTO BOMB SCARE

Following up on the bomb scare that has delayed the last game for Manchester United this season, the club has set up an enquiry.

The “urgent” inquiry has been demanded after a dummy bomb used in a security exercise caused the Premier League match against AFC Bournemouth at Old Trafford to be postponed.

A controlled explosion was carried out on the device, which police said was accidentally left by a private firm. Greater Manchester Mayor and Police and Crime Commissioner Tony Lloyd called for a full inquiry into the “fiasco.” He also told BBC Sport that United “need to apologize very, very seriously” to supporters of both clubs who were at Old Trafford.
