Manchester United and Liverpool might have to play their rescheduled Premier League game at an alternative venue after today’s game was called off due to protestors at Old Trafford.
The Red Devils had been due to host their rivals in today’s big game at 4.30pm, but it’s now not clear when the match can go ahead due to thousands of anti-Glazer protestors arriving at Old Trafford before the game.

According to Stan Collymore, it’s now seen as unlikely that the teams will be able to play tomorrow, but nothing is quite being ruled out yet.
He adds that playing at a neutral venue is also being discussed, which might help the teams avoid the wrath of Man Utd fans, who were clearly able to gather in very large numbers in Manchester today…
