Brady: ‘We did everything in our power to restrict and minimise potential problems’
She told the Sun: “The scenes we saw towards the end of Wednesday’s win over Chelsea at London Stadium were a huge disappointment.
A disappointment to all who have worked so hard to put on such an exciting fixture in the face of a small minority of mindless individuals hell-bent on causing trouble.
There was an electric atmosphere created by passionate supporters, the majority of whom behaved impeccably and supported their team to an excellent win in front of another record attendance.
Ahead of the game, as a club, we did everything in our power to restrict and minimise potential problems.
We worked tirelessly day and night with the safety and security teams at London Stadium and the Metropolitan Police Service to ensure that every potential risk was assessed and prepared for.
Without question, we could have sold out the stadium twice over but the safety of our supporters is always our primary concern.
And as a result we made the correct decision to impose strong restrictions on tickets, which were limited to supporters with a level of recorded purchase history — who could only access one ticket each.
