Provisional plans in place for fans' return to Leigh Sports Village

This follows the recent announcement from the UK Government, as part of its COVID-19 Winter Plan, that clubs based in Tier 1 and 2 categories of restrictions will be able to reopen to fans with reduced capacities.

Manchester United Women are scheduled to play Bristol City at Leigh Sports Village on 20 December. While home games currently remain behind closed doors due to the Tier 3 restrictions in place for Greater Manchester, the next Government review of regional restrictions is planned for the week leading up to this fixture.

This means there is a possibility that fans may be able to attend the game if Greater Manchester (or Wigan) is moved into Tier 2, and approval is given by the local authorities.
