Manchester United recruits sound engineer to boost Old Trafford atmosphere - Telegraph.co.uk

The club has previously attempted to set up a dedicated singing section inside the stadium but those plans have been abandoned.

A scheme to relocate away supporters from their current location has also been shelved. The proposals were trialled last April, when Aston Villa fans were moved from the regular spot in the East Stand to the top tier of the Sir Alex Ferguson Stand. However, police expressed safety and security concerns over the move.

The club, who are on course to win the league this season, are due to play local rivals and current champions Manchester City at Old Trafford on Monday night.

Roy Keane, the former United midfielder, criticised the noise generated by fans at Old Trafford in 2000, while he was still playing for the club.

"Away from home our fans are fantastic, I'd call them the hardcore fans," he said. "But at home they have a few drinks and probably the prawn sandwiches, and they don't realise what's going on out on the pitch."
