Supporters protesting against Manchester United's owners invaded the pitch at Old Trafford AFP/Oli SCARFFLondon - Manchester United co-chairman Joel Glazer has written to fans acknowledging the"need for change" and better communication after protests forced the postponement of last Sunday's Premier League match against Liverpool.

Glazer, responding to the MUST letter on Friday, reiterated his sincere apology"for the mistakes that were made" over the Super League. But short of selling up, there appears little the Glazers can do to appease some sections of United's support, who have not tasted Premier League success since 2013 at the end of an era of domination under Alex Ferguson who then retired.

MUST gave a cautious welcome to Glazer's statement, which included a promise to attend a fan forum, but said they would"determine our position based on the resulting actions rather than these words alone".Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, whose club had also signed up for the Super League, criticised some television pundits for stoking fan protests against clubs as part of opposition to the ill-fated proposal.

Klopp said he believed supporters had a right to a voice but that the actions of some had crossed a line.
