Protest at Old Trafford
- Thread starter Lennon7
- Start date
Wow. What did you expect fans to do? Do you realise what the Glazers tried to do?
Whats it for?
It's such a reductive argument that the actions of so few individuals is somehow indicative of the overwhelming majority protesting in the right way. If you ceased the operation of protesting on the basis of rogue self-interest then there would be no protest in history, profitable or otherwise, that would have passed the criteria of being deemed ideal.
Manchester's Covid rate will be spiking it seems.
That's what I'm hoping
Michael Oliver looking clueless.
Nothing to do with the protests delaying the kick off, like.

What I mean is we heard nothing about this blackout until the beginning of this week or end of last week.
There were no rumours of it and all of a sudden the media and the EPL decide to act against racism in social media when they've done nothing for months.
It’s also clear that the protesters have not even the beginning of an idea of how to get the glazers out.
Haha, nothing new there. He is probably checking VAR
I'm not going to say anything more just yet. I'm hoping it's not what I suspect though.
Glazer supporters not welcome here today
Mate stop being a Karen. You're embarrassing.
It’s just one fecking game. This means more than your stupid Sunday night entertainment.
You won’t be popular in Norwich.
Least they are doing something. What have you done in the past 7 days?
Hot takeNews at 4PM
dunno. sounds pretty inbred.
ANNOUNCE GREALISH!
Respect for protesting. But they should keep it outside Old Trafford and not invading the pitch.
Excellent post, mate. You can't please all of the people all of the time. There will never be unanimity on the best way to protest.
The FA have to wait for the stock exchange to open.
Also why are the protesting trying to stop the team bus leaving Lowry hotel, this ain't ideal preparation for our squad before such a big game.
It’s not really though.
The FA will set a very harsh precedent in my opinion, we’re probably looking at a points deduction if they game doesn’t go ahead.
no chance we will just get away a fine or a replayed game.
Can't get my head around those being so arsed about the game getting delayed/called off. Do you not understand this would be a huge win for Glazers out? It would hit them where it hurts.
They shouldn't have done it before a game against our fiercest rivals. The game will most probably be called off and this will have an adverse effect on the psyche of the players. Even if the fans mean no harm, the players are always on the edge about safety. They can't give their 100% when this happens before a match.
I hope the game is called off now and the players are given some rest. It will be tough on them especially having mentally prepared to play Liverpool.
I agree with the protest and that Glazers are not the best owners but they could have done this on another day. I don't condone this behavior and I am surprised at others they do. This is like throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

its very disingenuous to suggest this one protest is expected to get them to sell
its making an impact which is important, and its a start
our owners tried to destroy football as we know it two weeks ago, did you forget?
Why?
Love the pictures from Sky News. Proud of the fans there.

Are we sure it's not the 2014 Matacopter, here to keep the peace?
Probably get shot down here. Or maybe that's just horsing around in Polk.
I believe they're thinking about the bigger picture ...
Yes they do. This is exactly how we get them out. Its absolutely ridiculous to think that we can protest financially, you must be absolutely thick if you thick we could organise an economic protest.
This is the only way.
Yes, outside. And this is the difference. Gathering outside won't postpone a game. Vandalism on the pitch does.
The shot they just showed had no-one on the pitch, so all they've done is irritated everyone by delaying things and causing a nuisance.
Bold move, but I doubt a single protest is going to make the Glazers change their mind. However, a series of protest will also harm the club's position in the league rendering all the players' efforts this year meaningless.
Cause it needs to be. Too much chaos and disruption. Best thing to settle it down.
It will if they won't let the players in.
