Manchester United have acknowledged they agreed to more Monday and Friday fixtures in a new broadcast contract, but also said they recognise the increased difficulties for fans to attend non-Saturday games.
They suggested there needs to be a balance between the importance of the money brought in by broadcasting matches, and the matchday experience for fans who attend them.
United also wrote to their Fans Forum to outline their position and confirmed chief executive Omar Berrada had spoken to Premier League counterpart Richard Masters to outline the club's concerns.
The club pointed out in a 12-week period between 5 October and 25 December they have just one match at Old Trafford on a weekend and have a trip to Crystal Palace at 12 noon on a Sunday and another to Wolves at 20:00 on a Monday.
United said while they agreed to the new TV deal, which increases the number of Monday and Friday night games, they also recognise one of the attractions of the Premier League for broadcasters around the world is the 'unique atmosphere' inside stadiums and the league cannot lose sight of that when they are deciding fixtures.
