Protest at Old Trafford
- Thread starter Lennon7
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
It's all getting rather silly now. The hotel and stadium are secure but they are still awaiting for the teams to leave their respective hotels. Just get on with now ffs.
Whats Stan doing on twitter this weekend
Game off.
Games called off
It's off. Confirmed
Theyll be plenty of people washing their hands off that. Same as with the jumping on cars etc outside.
Protest away but i hope everybody owns this now.
Right thing to do
Oh, feck that. Poor man
Why is there always some feckers that ruin it for the rest? That is arguably the only downside with these protests. Among the small minority of people who are willing to act, there is unfortunately always some absolute nutters who would practically join any form of demonstration, just to have an excuse to wreak havoc.
Hope he’s OK. If he was attacked by a protester then I don’t condone it, if that’s what you’re suggesting?
We also know absolutely nothing about how it actually happened, for what it’s worth.
Huge story. Out of curiosity, I checked the official website. Not one mention of it 
Game off
Wow
This is not going to go away

Noticed that too, looks like he’s missing a tooth don’t think it’s an injury though
Massive Statement. Well done to everyone apart from those that injured the police etc.
He can't even string a coherent sentence together though.
In the end just don't do something that you won't get away with in an opposition stadium imo
Excellent. Well done all.
Brilliant news.

Game cancelled?!
Fans have spoken. Proud of everyone who attended the presentation today, with the exception of any minority who took it to an extreme.
Do the naysayers still think this will achieve nothing and will be forgotten?
Yeah. Postponed.
Slightly gutted the game is off but it’s a strong message. Hope it gets moved to tomorrow!
Yes they were. At least one policeman with a facial injury. One person knocked out. There's also video of a bunch of fans running after a car and trying to smash it and get at the driver.
Joel doesn't care about scarves and hashtags. He will notice this.
The official noodle sponsors will be fuming

I'm sorry, but it's not a joke of a post. Some of the high-minded people on this forum who think this is all very noble stuff need to go and look what other people are saying about this. I spoke this afternoon to a friend who's a Newcastle supporter and he was aghast when he considers what they get to spend. I'm not defending the Glazers here, I don't like them as owners, but the money Utd have spent in 5-6 years dwarfs what many others clubs have spent and makes Utd supporters look like selfish brats with a sense of entitlement; and I certainly don't want the club to be owned by a Middle Eastern state that steals from its citizens to fuel its plaything football clubs in Europe.
This protest punishes the players and the supporters.
The match has just been called off by the officials and sanctions could be taken against the team - not the owners or the protestors, the team and the supporters.
Sorry if people here disagree with this, but you need to hear it. Just look at what most of the commentators are saying (apart from Gary Neville who's becoming a parody of himself). By all means protest against the owners, but mobs at Old Trafford are not the way to do it.
Stay classy.
I honestly don't think it was ever intended to go this far, at least not to the extent that innocents - those with no affiliation to the Glazers whatsoever - got severely injured.
Good job (apart from a few idiots who went too far).
Wow, wasn't expecting this really, sends out a huge message now. We have tried to protest against them before but we have never had a game called off.
Good for you. Keep the pressure up. Take back what was yours to begin with.
'''We decide when you will play''
Just Taser them

this is all that is going to be remembered of this protest now. People can argue that 99% of the protesters were peaceful and they were but that won’t be what’s remembered.
This is huge!!
I wonder how the glazers will respond?
What will the PL do? Points deduction on the way?
