MANCHESTER UNITED boss Marc Skinner wants fans to be “well looked after” when the postponed Women’s Super League trip to Chelsea is rescheduled.

The contest at Kingsmeadow that had been due to be played this coming Sunday was called off with a week’s notice, after the Blues’ Champions League opener against Real Madrid at Stamford Bridge was confirmed as taking place two days later.

While Skinner feels the right decision has been made in terms of player welfare, he was keen to highlight supporters in the situation.
