Earlier on Friday, Manchester United interim boss Michael Carrick said he was “proud of what the club stands for” at a pre-match news conference.<\/p>\n
“I’m proud of what the club stands for and has done for so long,” said Carrick. “I’m really aware of that.<\/p>\n
“Sir Jim made his statement and the club made a statement on the back of it. It is not my place to add to that.<\/p>\n
“What I can say is that I have been around this club many years.<\/p>\n
“Equality and diversity and respect for each other is something we look to carry through every day.<\/p>\n
“I have travelled the world and know what this club means to an awful lot of people.<\/p>\n
“I am fully aware of the responsibility, and we try to carry that out every day. I am proud of what the club stands for and has done for so long.”<\/p>\n
Carrick, who has been installed as head coach for the remainder of the season after Ruben Amorim’s dismissal, wore a distinctive green Unite for Access badge.<\/p>\n
The organisation aims to raise awareness and “drive equality for a more inclusive matchday experience for disabled sports fans”.<\/p>\n
“I think part of being at this club is that we understand what it’s like globally and the responsibilities we have within this,” Carrick added.<\/p>\n
“I can only speak from my personal experiences of being here for a long time with various managers, with various staff.<\/p>\n
“The supporters have largely probably stayed the same but we have gathered some new ones over the years, from all different backgrounds. It’s something we’re fully aware of and I am.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
