Man Utd pen Nottingham Forest match statement as Storm Darragh postpones Merseyside derby

Manchester United have released a statement ahead of tonight's scheduled Premier League clash at Old Trafford against Nottingham Forest.

It comes after Storm Darragh spread havoc across parts of the country, with Everton's clash against Liverpool in the midday kick-off postponed earlier today.

Weather warnings have been put in place across some parts of England and Wales, as Storm Darragh continues to disrupt road and public transport networks.

But, as things stand, United's Saturday evening match with Forest is still scheduled to go ahead.

Is Man Utd vs Nottingham Forest still on?

A statement posted to United's matchday helpline, which was reposted by the official X account, read: "Today’s Premier League fixture at Old Trafford between Manchester United and Nottingham Forest is scheduled to go ahead as planned.

"The club will continue to consult the relevant authorities throughout the day and will update supporters immediately if anything changes.

"We understand that fan travel will be disrupted by the weather so this fixture will not be included in the minimum number of games a season that season tickets must be used."
