I called it. All this protest is at the moment is an angry twitter mob led by attention seeking pricks like that Patrick Ward who are scamming United fans.

Color me shocked that basement dwelling keyboard warriors didn't want to dare brave the public.
Oh look Ed’s back
How many of those tweets were from people in India who couldn’t show up to a game never mind a protest.
Shit time to hold it, shit planning.

I ain't part of the protest etc. But there's nothing worse than some corporate shill like yourself giving it large from their computer.
And if you're not a cooperate shill then i don't even begin to understand anybody that dares criticise fellow supporters taking a stand against the leech owners we have.
Well done.
at the ‘protest’ and the 5 people who turned up. Suppose it’s much easier to sit in your bedroom and get attention on Twitter.Now let of us enjoy the reveal of our new £50m signing that the owners sanctioned.

July one will be ace.
Regardless being part of protest or not, what kind of person you have to be to stand guard for a freaking corporation and not only that but to mock and laugh at fellow fans who taking any type of stand against it.
Seen a fair few people on replies to tweets mentioning P Ward, the person who organized this, being a scammer. What’s the deal with him?
Agree
Tyson Fury knows him and exposed him on twitter a few years back. I believe he used to work for Team Fury as a social media manager.

Why is that?
Please stop rolling out your "Common business practice" line. It's wearing thin and does nothing to justify the Glazers.
No matter whether you're an advocate for the "#GlazersOut" movement or you're not, I think everyone can agree that the absolute farce of a "protest" that took place today really damaged the campaign in the eyes of your average fan. The timing of it and obviously the gobshite spearheading the whole thing couldn't possibly have been worse even if the Glazers themselves got to handpick those 2 factors
Knew it would .The time as passed.
I’d be wary of attending anything organized by this person.
Protest in a heat wave. I guess people don't actually care that much about United as they think. Go BBQ and spend some time with your kids people.
Salt intensifies!
Far from a "shill", just a regular Joe who called these "protests" out for what they are... a complete and utter waste of time! Nonsense about the club being worried cause they didn't tweet in 2 days, tin foil hat theory comes to mind!
I said all along if supporters want to protest, by all means do it with strong foundations and with worthwhile support from supporters clubs, not following some scumbag conman which started as a twitter trend.
I'm a cynical realist if you want to label me anything.
You can take my word that it will only rear its ugly head when we lose matches in the months ahead, a few gobby sorts and feeling brave when in numbers. The likes of Pa Ward and Michael Tunstall will head in the shadows otherwise.
Well said guys
Nah mate, you're a libertarian roughneck who has made defending the Glazers a personal crusade.
Two sides to every coin, just because my opinion differs to yours you label it something offensive and that I'm on a crusade.
Simply highlighting the flaws in the movement, I was proven today and mark my words this will raise its head on match days where we lose cause we've an army of spoiled, self entitled "supporters" thinking we've divine rights to win leagues annually.
I'm largely indifferent to them cause I can apply common sense and say that the board aren't at fault for say players failing to live up to expectations or managers failing to apply their methods on the team.
When they go and some day they will, trust me... it'll be a case of
Glazers will never leave why would you sell a cash making machine. They say money talks but for them to even consider selling you have to be from oil rich country to want to spend 4B plus on buying the club.
Plus with further 1B will be need to be spent on building a team that can compete with city which will take a about 3-4 transfer windows to sort out due to FFP can not happen in 1 or 2 transfer windows.
The glazers should of never been allowed to purchase the club this way.
Man Utd have gone from been the richest club in the world to the poorest club in the world with debt off 500m

Twitter people arent real people, they are slacktavists.
Its why I find it really hard to get my head round it when people who live in the real world get excited about these things.
Pressing “like” and “retweeting” is the absolute limit of their passion for a subject, people should be worried about the monster that eats random socks that lives under your bed causing you to constantly have odd socks.

We won't say a cash making machine if we keep on having terrible season after the next, at one point we won't be able to sustain this regardless of what's happening on the pitch and Glazers will think of selling for the hugest profit possible and letting the new owners solve this myth as they want.
So poor, we just spent £45million on a 21 year old right back today.
United are one of the very richest clubs in the world and are most valuable (£3billion).
The real question should be if we can organize ourselves to buy out the club from the Glazers. Maybe propose 4B GBP, try to put 2B down, and we probably require another LBO unfortunately. We will have to contact every wealthy "fan", and we have to discuss with our major sponsors, maybe even get their approval (we have a plan to improve your image... why not try to get a football club to get its soul back kind of story) after having trashed them. We will need more articles to create awareness about the hashtag and the impact of the hashtag on the sponsors, etc...
That's a lot of work, and as much as I love United, it's hard to see how we can get organized like that effectively. But if such plan was crafted and in motion, I would join. I'm more than happy to help.

I’ll put a fiver, mate.
Yay...
Well I am pretty sure we won't find a solution on a forum or Twitter. Maybe MUST have a bit more experience on that.
Add in another fiver from me boys. Just 3,999,990 GBP to go.
As a regular fan, I'd be willing to put something like £500-£1000, depending on what my savings look like at that moment.
Bear in mind that I live in a relatively poor country, so I'm sure we have many wealthy supporters in places where £50 000-£100 000 isn't a financial burden at all. Other clubs around Europe have fan ownership, I don't see why we can't do it as well, as we have the biggest fanbase in the world, supposedly.
Ironically, our fanbase is not that united...
I dont trust fans to have a brain to make the right decision.
Who is this Keefy geezer? Absolute nob.
First time I had to block somebody on here.
Anyway when it was common knowledge it was PA ward doing the organising it out people off due to his sketchy past.

Well said.
95% of these people won’t care if we start winning and sign a few more players. The “movement” isn’t for the good of Manchester United, it’s to satiate their desire for the one thing they started following the club for; glory.
There is obvious issues with the Glazer family, but you just need to see the type of people on social media who are pushing this and you can tell what they’re really concerned about.
Social media is a massive part of the Glazer/Woodward business model. Even if it is the casual fan who is un subscribing, tweeting #GlazersOut etc it will add to the cause.
However, things like protests outside OT have to be a lot better organised, with enough notice given and planned.

What's it got to do with feeling brave? What are those lot going to do if somebody decides to make a stand against the owners?
I've never heard of Patrick Ward, but if he's as bad a person as people are saying then I'm glad he won't be the one at the forefront of any protests. But, like you said, if this summer doesn't see serious investment and we continue to flounder, shit will hit the fan next season and it will get ugly. You know that and are trying to pre empt it by playing it down as "a few gobby sorts", but it will be the majority of people at the ground, local reds, fans from overseas on social media...everybody.
At that point, the only person feeling brave would be Woodward if he decides to show up to games at Old Trafford.
