Manchester United considering plan to become Premier League’s first club with gender-neutral toilets
Plans for new developments at Old Trafford will see gender-neutral toilets considered as well as the implementation of new ‘high-security hostile vehicle mitigation bollards’
If United go ahead with the plan, they would become the first top-flight club to introduce the facility.
United's head of security Jim Liggett said, according to the minutes of the club's September fans' forum: "It's something we are looking at as we are keen to ensure that Old Trafford continues to be welcoming and inclusive to all supporters; I will keep you posted regarding progress.

"Our commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion is important in everything that we do and we're constantly working with key stakeholders, including Stonewall, on such topics."
The club also announced plans for "high-security hostile vehicle mitigation bollards" to improve security at the stadium.
Ligett said: "There is a programme to install high-security hostile vehicle mitigation bollards at a number of points around the perimeter of the stadium; these works are scheduled for completion ahead of the New Year. (However, the work activity will be phased to minimise the impact on match days)."
