More than 50,000 fans took part in the survey, which was distributed to Season Ticket holders, United Members, and Executive Club members in September – the highest engagement rate of any fan research conducted by the club.
The results showed that a new-build stadium at Old Trafford is the preference for the majority of fans who responded – with 52 per cent declaring support for that option. Redevelopment of the existing stadium was preferred by 31 per cent of fans, with a further 17 per cent declaring themselves unsure.
The data showed the strongest support for a new-build stadium to be among current season ticket holders, with the desire for a new stadium increasing with the age of a season ticket holder.
