Manchester United:

Celtic fans without tickets have been asked not to make the Champions League trip to Manchester United this month.

May's Uefa Cup final in Manchester was marred by trouble after around 100,000 Rangers fans made the journey south.

"Along with Celtic, we are urging supporters who do not have tickets not to travel to the city," read a joint statement from Manchester officials.

"They will not get into the game and facilities will not be provided for fans to watch the match elsewhere."

The statement was issued on behalf of Manchester City Council, Greater Manchester Police and Manchester United chief executive David Gill.

It added: "Manchester is looking forward to welcoming Celtic fans visiting the city for the Uefa Champions League tie with Manchester United on 21 October.

"We're a city that's passionate about football with a proud reputation for hospitality.

"We promise to show the greatest respect to visiting Celtic fans and are sure that they will respond in kind by helping keep our streets litter-free and abiding by local bye-laws.

"These laws obviously include a ban covering on-street drinking and this will be enforced.

"We have welcomed Celtic supporters to Manchester on many previous occasions with great success. We are sure next week will enjoy the same great experience."

Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell said: "We are sure our fans will travel to Manchester once again with the aim of supporting the club positively as they enjoy another great meeting between two of Europe's great clubs."

Celtic and Manchester United met in the group stage of the tournament in 2006, with the Scottish champions losing 3-2 at Old Trafford and winning 1-0 on home soil.

West Bromwich Albion:

Former Fulham, Birmingham and West Brom striker Geoff Horsfield has revealed he is suffering from testicular cancer.

The 34-year-old, who was released by Sheffield United last summer, has been forced to retire as a result and will undergo surgery next week.

He told the Daily Mirror: "I was diagnosed last Friday and I'm going in for surgery next Thursday.

"The surgeon has told me that this is the end of my professional career, but that's at the back of my mind now."

Horsfield began his career at Scarborough in 1992, and his scoring exploits at Halifax earned him a £300,000 move to Fulham in 1996.

He said: "I've had 10 good years with Fulham, Birmingham, Wigan, West Brom and all the other clubs I've played for and enjoyed it.

"But all I'm thinking about now is beating this. I've always been a fighter right through my football career and I'm going to fight this and win."

Horsfield has been told he has a good chance of recovery after the diagnosis was made early.

"The specialist told me I did well to find the lump because it is so small," he added.

Horsfield, who finished last season on loan at Scunthorpe, had been training recently with League One Walsall.

The Barnsley-born forward has also played for Wigan, Leeds and Leicester.
