Manchester United fans

Post by Top of the JES »

Making a point to the Glaziers today by invading the ground and are now blockading the teams hotel. Game delayed and may be postponed. I don’t have much time for the premier league but this is the fans making a stand and sometimes you just got to do it.

Great they took a stand, this is what it odds all about. Wish more of the jellyfish so called fans had stood up against the Italian Devil at the time during the dark years. The man treated us with pure contempt.

What are they protesting about? That they only spent 200m on players or that City spent more than they did. I hate premier league fans as much as the clubs.

Will they think its a good idea if the premier league docked them 10 points, and deprived them of a champions league spot?

The way to get a point across is not to turn up to the ground on match day, but fans will still turn up every game ( pandemic allowing)

The club was bought with borrowed money and it was leveraged against the club. It’s in £500m of debt with thr owners taking out 100s of millions out of the club every year to line their pockets. They don’t go to games. They don’t engage with the fans. Ticket prices went up. The footballing side of things is secondary to them. The club had spent on transfers but the net spend is next to nothing every year.

Your club nearly went under, what a f*cking bizarre take to have when other fans are protesting their sh*t owners.

That re-ignited it but it was to do with them as owners in general

Anything that gives a bit of a kicking to the owners involved in the ESL disgrace is good work in my book.

£800 million debt & £60 million repayments on the loan .
Not sure how much of the debt is still needed in repayment
I dont see the Glazer Family ever leaving regardless of protests.

Shame for the Fans

Whoever the idiots were who attacked the police and put one officer in hospital with serious injuries are completely out of order, by all means demonstrate peacefully, start putting people in hospital and you’ll lose a lot of support.

Your sympathy isn’t wanted. Clubs are being used and abused at all levels, you can’t start dictating at what point you’re ok with it

They are protesting at the Super League thing. Hopefully the owners will realise what a bad idea that is after this, change their minds and pull out of any such plans after seeing this.
