Johnny Sexton, former Irish Rugby Captain its a huge United fan. So are Brian O'Driscoll and Keith Wood. Ronan O'Gara is a big Liverpool Fan.

Elon Musk is a United fan I believe.
On the back of this, I just learned today that Brian ODriscoll's cousin Gary is our head of sports medicine now.

I remember being told that years ago when Angus Deayton, very much a Red, was a guest in the OT directors box the Stretford End - this must have been a boring game - spotted him and began singing “Angus, Angus, give us a wave.” Eventually he did and immediately the chant became “Angus Deayton, you’re a w*nker, you’re a w*nker..’

He made a dick of himself on the train from Euston to Manchester a couple of times.

Zoe Ball is a plastic , saw her in Vienna in 96 when we won 2-0 and she was there for a publicity shoot and was absolutely terrified , she stated she was a United fan because her dad supported Liverpool , soon after that changed her support to Brighton her husbands team , to be fair he is a loyal fan
Oh. I thought she’d mentioned (on the radio) over the years that she was a United fan so thought she was a real one.

Sounds like a guy that'll never let you down.
He had trials at United too, but they let him go.

He just wouldn’t run around.

But in not running around, he then let someone down, creating the Astley Paradox.

Brendan Coyle of many things, including DOWNTON ABBEY, is a United fan. His great Uncle is Matt Busby.

Tony brown West Brom legend from way back was from Manchester and a United fanatic probably the one that got away always wore a red tie with his match suit to show his allegiance

who do you feckin think ?
Actor Ian mcshane is a united fan his dad played for united in the early 50s
interesting one that, i looked that up and he won the League in 51 with Utd and as a Utd scout he found Wes Brown. Was a stadium announcer at OT too but I think his son Ian would have had a great voice to be a stadium announcer.

Don’t know of he’s been listed but Norwegian crime novel writer Jo Nesbo makes references to United, SAF and OGS in his books.

He's a massive Spurs fan. Debuted in the Norwegian top flight as a teen (retired due to injuries), lead vocalist and songwriter for one of the most popular 90's band in Norway and got a MBA in addition to his successful writing career. Impressive guy.

Also likes to dress up his drug dealers in his books in Arsenal kits:lol:

Do you know which books specifically? I don't really know anything about him but somehow feel compelled to read one of them haha
