    Protesting on the pitch and forcing the game to be delayed to get their point across to the world about Glazer. They got loads of publicity and no criticism.


    All our fans can muster in 13-14 years of that fat **** is a cringeworthy ‘funeral procession’ and a few banners and flags.

    But we should be happy with what we have. That performance today is what we really like to see.

    100% no effort. No shots. No passes. No excitement.

    It’s exactly what we love to see and I hope that Bruce gets manager of the year for entertaining us with such lovely boring training sessions.

    yep. The media are all but ****ing over the Man Utd fans who trespassed today abs ignored Covid restrictions. Yet if any of our lot pipe up the media whores hammer us and say how grateful we should be for Ashley and ‘nice guy’ Steve.

    The problem we have are people like Wraith and all the other social media wannabe stars.

    On top of that we have the people who will go to the games, buy the merchandise under the guise of "support the team not the regime"

    Then we have influences outside of the club
    Sky
    BT Sport
    The MSM
    Etc

    Well the glazers have actually taken £1bn out of the club and into their pockets since they took over. Our lovable moron just went for free ads and cost cutting. We’re also a fraction of the size.

    The two situations are objectively miles apart. We would do well to be more objective and not exacerbate the goldfish bowl image.

    Shouldn't that be a punishment?

    "Manchester United's game against Liverpool has been postponed after about 200 fans broke into Old Trafford to protest against the Glazer family's ownership of the club.

    The fixture was scheduled to kick off at 16:30 BST on Sunday.

    "This is a collective decision from the police, both clubs, the Premier League and local authorities," said the Premier League.

    Talks will now take place about re-arranging the game."

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I'm surprised they can make a quick decision at all

    Threatening to break away into another league and breaking a PL agreement should also but hasn’t (yet) but here we are.

    I have mixed feelings on the fact that the game has been cancelled. On one hand good on them for making a stand but barrackading your team in their hotel, blocking roads to prevent coaches potentially getting through is a bit ****ing stupid like. It’s gone way further than that though and has turned into a mass ****ing brawl really in all reality. Hurling missiles, clashing with police and each other...it’s tantamount to mindless ****ing thuggery now! Add to that the fact that we are still trying to haul ourselves out of a global pandemic with restrictions still in place.

    There’s nee way I’d be letting any Man Utd fans into any ground anytime this season when fans are allowed to be. They’ve gotten a game postponed here but what the **** is that going to do for their ego’s now? What happens next....that’s my worry! Is this gonna be a catalyst for more of the same, not just from Man Utd fans but other teams all caught up in this.

    On top of the big six punishment surely man utd should be sanctioned for this now too? Their fans behaviour? Other clubs get in to real trouble when their fans do stuff.

    Today wasn’t a protest.

    it was trespass, potential criminal damage and breaking of Covid laws.

    We’ve had clubs around Europe banned from competitions, points reductions, fines and stadium bans in the past.

    I suspect the punishment will be a stadium ban for fans for the first home game next season.

    oh what am I saying. The PL will turn a blind eye
