Derby County are set to invoice Manchester United for damage caused at The IPro Stadium by thugs of the former Premier League Champions during an FA Cup tie last month according to the Derby Telegraph.

The Red Devils won the FA Cup Fourth Round tie 3-1 with goals from Wayne Rooney, Daley Blind and Juan Mata while George Thorne scored a consolation goal for the home side.

After the match stadium staff at The IPro Stadium discovered damage to around 300 seats in the visitors section of the ground resulting in thousands of pounds of repair costs. A total of 5,460 Manchester United fans travelled to Derby for the match and the majority of supporters were well behaved but the occasion was spoilt by a small minority of travelling spectators.

It is understood that Derby County will now charge Manchester United for the cost of the repairs to the damaged seating in the visitors section of the ground with the bill expected to be at least a five figure sum.

Manchester United play Shrewsbury Town at The Greenhous Meadow on Monday evening with the match set to be played out in front of the television cameras. As a result of the damage caused at The IPro Stadium in the previous round by Manchester United fans, The Shrews have opted against installing 500 extra temporary seats for travelling Red Devils fans.
