Stretford End Flags aren't exactly a supporter group so you've got that mixed up.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
7 years to the day you've been a newbie, can see why.
Where would you propose that they do their protest? The training ground will have got the Glazers attention for sure and that's what matters because throwing #GlazerOut in a tweet isn't going to make them sit up and take notice.
You have to wonder how they entered the training ground, as sure that isn't easy, unless someone let them in.
It's not a banner group either? Thanks for clearing that up, your input really takes this discussion forward.
Regarding the UK government. Do you believe that they can instruct or even legislate a US based and owned company to fundamentally change the way they operate.
I am asking because I don't know myself, not to be critical of your post.
Proof?
The is not the only solution so it's a pointless comment.
We want those changes AND for the Glazers to go. No one is suggesting otherwise.
There are other potential buyers or a consortium. It's not Glazers or Saudis. Not sure why you are challenging people wanting Glazers out.
And here we go. The perfect reason why ultimately these things always lead to splits in the fanbase and never go anywhere.
This guy :
How the F has these managed to turn into a chance to dig at Ole.
Agree and also the apology was meaningless. I was doing some googling. They backed down because of the reaction in the UK. I looked up figures, 12.7m people here have sky sports subscriptions and you can bet your bottom dollar they were expecting the same footfall in their projected figures on streaming revenue. I think i pay £33 a month for my sky sports packages - do you think people in china and albania pay that for football subscriptions?
I reckon They realised fans here wouldnt watch it on principle and it wasnt financially viable without a strong uk streaming base so they have backed out only for money issues, then pretended they ‘listened to the fans’ for PR purposes. Intersting the first two clubs to back out, Chelsea and Man City, are probably the ones who need the money least.
cold blooded parasites.
This guy :
'I see you have bedsheets with you, you must be part of the laundry team, no problem chaps, in you come'.
I'm not challenging those who want the Glazers out, I'm saying we need change to PL/FA rules first, or we're likely to be in exactly the same situation as we are now.
If you actually read my previous posts you'd know that.
This guy :
him: “excuse me, sirs, who are you and why do you need to get in to carrington?”
them: “we are members of the first team, including players such as harold mcguire, lucas shore, bran hernandez and others.”
him: “ah very well, in you go, enjoy training. sorry, lads.”
Apparently the bods at Carrington tweeted that Ole said Glazer loves United.
Security at the training ground must be brutal. Must be G4S?
One of them does but there's like 7 of them with equal shares I think.
No they said it was bullshit and made up by Red Issue
Redissue are such scummy bastards. Not the first time either.
Check the source. I mean come on. It's already been denied by someone there.
The problem is, it's too small an audience to cause any problem.
They can just have them arrested. Needs to be more than just six or seven people.
It needs to be a consistently large amount to be seen as relevant.
Both to the UK government and to the Glazers.

I know, just answering the question about how Ole came to be 'involved'.
Fair. I think the important thing is everyone focusing their intention on the important things. Reform & The Glazers.
Another story to twist into Ole hating. Tedious.
Ole clearly didn't want the Super League, we all know it, he was in an awful position and totally in the dark like everybody else.
Cannot for the life of me understand why posters here expect people who are employed by the Glazers to treat and speak to the Glazers how they would want to. How on earth would Ole keep his job if he did ffs.
If anything, having owners like this means we should give the manager more support than we do already. Imagine working under these clowns and trying to implement meaningful changes and improvements.
Do people who want Glazers out have an idea or plan on what would happen next? Say Glazers came out and agreed to sell the club, who would buy it? And would that person (group of people) be interested in the football side rather than business side? Sometimes the devil you know is better than the angel you don't.
Fair play to them lads, taking time off work to stage a protest.
If these were the only option, then I will be in a minority that would rather keep who we have.
Ideally the Glaziers need getting rid of, but not for either of these !
The Glazers are the absolute worst kind of owners we could get burdened with. Yes the likes of Abramovic and Sheikh Mansoor are hardly outstanding human beings, but you can't fault the investment and ambition they'd gifted to their respective clubs. Meanwhile, we've been stuck with a bunch of parasites who've riddled a hugely profitable club with insurmountable debt, refusing to invest, all while taking millions out for their coffers every year. Ask yourself whether its possible that whoever succeeds them will be any worse?
As long as it's in that order.
Did that happen, thought it was pretty good natured and Ole and trainng staff came out and had a word ?
Even if they could, that would set a really dangerous precedent. Imagine being a foreign investor looking to invest in UK and seeing that the govt can basically take half your company at will.
Exactly. I don’t think Ole is the type to stick the knife into his employer, he is only trying to work within the situation. Fair play to him and the staff for coming out to talk and listen.
But can spark endless possibilities for creative engagement with the sponsorsBrilliant.
A) Great job. We are focusing on the people we should NOT BE FOCUSING ON. - The Manager or the Players are not responsible for this mess. They did not create it, know about it, or want it.
B) I've seen this twitter account. It reads like the perfect "School of Hard Knocks"stereotype. I don't know what was said, but I'm fairly certain that these people would not have left peacefully after being told Joel loves the club so feck off by the manager. But even then. Do you think the most public figure of the football club is going to come out there and give a bunch of raggedy angerlemmings all the soundbites and quotes they can want to spread everywhere so they can help jeopardize his position at the club? That is so wildly unreasonable I can't even.
C) Ole is not the one anyone should be spending their energy on. He can't win regardless of what he says. If he goes against Glazers he gets fired, if he goes against fans he loses the fans. His best course of action is to shut up and motivate the players.
D) You're focusing your energy on the wrong people
E) FOCUS ON THE GLAZERS
F) I don't recall Pep and Klopp being barraged with demands to go against the owners. All they did was say they dont like the competition, and they are praised. Maybe let Ole have a press conference first?
G) It's always going to be rich to actually tell the man that put his toe to one of the most iconic memories in this clubs history, that he needs a history lesson. Bloody hell. That is truly on the same level as Christians on twitter telling the Pope to read a bible.
H) The Glazer Family and Ed Woodward are the only responsible culprits and all focus should be on them and them alone.
That's a disgrace from Redissue if that's the case.

It's a random Twitter account that's been hijacked.
Nothing to do with a superb grass roots fanzine that no longer operates (very sadly IMO).
Yeah, bit of an arrogant statement.
But regardless, anti-Glazer protests are the need of the hour. And sending a message, even if it was very few people is good IMO
It's turned into his first real test is what it's turned into
