Manchester United appoints a full-time counterterrorism manager

Published 26 January 2017

Manchester United, one of the U.K. top soccer clubs, has announced the creation of a new position: a full-time counter-terrorism manager. It is understood the role will be filled by a former inspector from Greater Manchester police’s specialist search unit. ManU’s final match of last season against Bournemouth was called off after a bomb scare after a device – which was proven to be fake — was found in a toilet after the two teams finished warming up. The game was played four days after the FA Cup final.
