United have sent an email to supporters and will be discussing the matter with the Premier League.
The email read: We share your frustrations and appreciate the logistical difficulties that have been created for our fans by this fixture being scheduled for an 8pm kick off on bank holiday Monday in London.
We want to inform you that we are writing to the Premier League to this effect and will be asking for greater consideration to be given to match-going fans when agreeing fixture schedules with broadcasters.
To support our traveling fans, we are pleased that together with our partner adidas, we are able to offer free coach travel for supporters making the trip to Selhurst Park from Manchester with our official coach partner, One Club United. Places are limited so please apply today to secure your seat.
With not all our fans wishing to travel by coach, we will also enter all ticket holders for this fixture into a draw to win a signed Manchester United shirt.
Thank you for your incredible support."
