We take a zero tolerance approach to this sort of behaviour. As and when the individual is identified, we will take the appropriate course of action.”The Munich air disaster remains a painful part of United’s history and cost the lives of 23 people in total, eight of whom were part of the club’s famous ‘Busby Babes’, including Duncan Edwards and then-captain Roger Byrne.
