MUDSA celebrate new accessible platforms
ArticleOur Disabled Supporters' Association showcased the new Stretford End facilities during a launch day last week.
"I'm just blown away by it, it's so spacious," she continued.
"It's so elegant and stylish. It has got an amazing view of the ground. It's just stunning to look out there and you can see the whole pitch really clearly in front of you, and it's got a really warm welcoming vibe as well.
"As soon as I came in, I thought, ‘This is great, this is a really nice place for people to come’.
Green summed up her feelings of pride in MUDSA, who played an integral role in the redesign and construction of the new accessibility facilities by offering advice and guidance throughout the project.
"I'm always really proud to be the MP for Manchester United but I've got to say today I'm especially proud to be the MP for MUDSA, the disabled supporters’ association," she said.
