Manchester United and Rangers are implementing unprecedented joint security measures in order to prevent crowd trouble when the clubs meet in this season's Champions League, according to a report from the Daily Mail.
Club chiefs are keen to avoid a repeat of the scenes during and after the 2008 UEFA Cup final, held at the City of Manchester Stadium, when thousands of Rangers fans descended on the city.
There were major outbreaks of trouble during that evening, with police officers attacked and extensive damage to property around the city centre.
Rangers fans travelling to the Old Trafford tie will have to travel on official coaches or not be allowed to attend the match at all, according to the report.
Their coaches will also be directed to Wigan Atheltic's DW Stadium, some 17 miles or so from Old Trafford, where their match tickets will be distributed, in order to decrease the risk of trouble in Manchester.

Despite a brief turn of pace and instant Liverpool attack through Craig Bellamy, it really is all Manchester United at Old Trafford. This time it’s Antonio Valencia who looks to add a third after making a run inside from the right, but Jose Enrique gets in front of the winger to hack Ryan Giggs’ cross away.

Not for much longer, my friend - on come Craig Bellamy and Andy Carroll for Stewart Downing and Jay Spearing.

Kunle on Twitter: “Man Utd are demolishing Liverpool. Daglish still leaves his best player, Bellamy on the bench.”

Wayne Rooney, how did you miss?! The Manchester United striker looks certain to grab his hat-trick after picking up possession inside a crowded Liverpool area, but somehow miscues his effort wide of the post. Unbelievable miss.
