How do you "renegades" think 200 hooded goons breaking in and messing the ground up and potentially messing one game up is going to force billionaires to sell a ground in a country they never go to?
Protest at Old Trafford
- Thread starter Lennon7
- Start date
The worst if it is that all the childish vandalism and disruption is not a good thing for the mindset of the home side.
If the dippers get a rare win at OT today then the feral vandals breaking stuff could well be the cause.
As a City fan it‘s not amusing because I don’t want to see Liverpoo in Europe next year but those tools are doing all they can to spoil united’s home advantage.
It’s going to be called off, United will forfeit the game and the Glazers still won’t sell.
Hope he enjoyed it as he’s probably not going to step foot in OT for a while.
Protest good. Fully support that
But hate to see them smashing up the place

How can you praise vandalism at Old Trafford?
it looked like that before they got there.
Indeed. You lot should've done this for your European game or against Fulham, basically one I don't care about watching.
It's almost like none of these protesters thought about me.
Nothing was ever achieved by sitting on ones arse at home.
An educated guess but I cannot see the game being cancelled. The betting companies and broadcasters would lose revenue because this is one of the biggest games in English football. At worst it will be postponed.
This was always going to be the case. The Glazers were never leaving without some form of confrontation.
What if we could organise this every game until they feel the pinch? Then it would make a dent. No games at Old Trafford until they leave......
For what, having an opinion?
The absolute worst case scenario.
So everyone who doesn't have the same view on this is Glazers' fan? What a stupid point, mate.
Its usually Leeds fans that smash up OT.
is telling someone to eff off an opinion these days?
If they were respectable fans and not this collection of chav scum then it would be impactful. As it is they are just an embarrassment and all they will achieve is getting Liverpool into the Champions League.
First reply is funny (to the "strides" comment) and from a Liverpool fan amazingly.

It's as clear as day that a lot of you couldn't give a toss about the football club. Moaning about a delay, points being docked, punishing the players, making the club undesirable for future signings etc. are all so minor compared to getting the Glazers out.
this is good
Oh noes. They broke a plastic corner flag. How will ever recover from this?You’re having an absolute mare in the thread mate. Give it a rest.
Yeah I would maybe consider this protest useful if there was even a glimmer of chance that this changes anything. The only impact it will have is we will get docked points and our main rivals will get a huge boost in top 4 race.
Embarrassing day to be a United fan.
Majority of fans are anti-Glazer, that doesn’t give anyone the right to break in to the stadium and cause these scenes.

Utterly pathetic scenes here. Just disgraceful. Worse ball control than Bellion

Games are only called off before because of fans. If there arent any fans then they could push it back to 8 and nobody really gives a feck.
And? Does that mean that I have to ignore the work that he put and has probably been ruined? He could have been a City fan, it wouldn't change a thing.
No one will get a points deduction, they'll just replay the game at a later date. Meanwhile, football fans around the world will stand up and take notice of a protest strong enough to get a game cancelled. Win win.
There's no way anyone involved today gets a ban.
You've mixed up who reported who
To be fair, the stadium isn't exactly in perfect condition. It's falling apart regardless.
A succulent Chinese opinion?
Right or wrong, Glazers and the board must be bricking it at the thought of fans being allowed back into the stadiums. The protests are going to be unparalleled.
The corporate media needs to be careful not to make this situation worse, as they almost always do in protest situations. Condemnation of the fans will definitely fuel the anger of this movement growing around the owners
Owners come and go, but the fans are the one constant ~ Sports news folks must keep that in mind

good to see fred managed to leave the lowry safely.
Take the l
That would be a shame but if it’s required to have any impact then so be it? That would be on the FA though, and they were staunchly against the super league and therefore the Glazers, so it’s on them to show some understanding.
3 match ban for Cavani all this.
Unfortunately I don't think this is how any protest work. The ends justify the means, and if they really want to get the message out, this "inconvenience" are bound to happen.
If the game's cancelled it's the Glazers fault for not having appropriate security at the stadium.
