Thank goodness most people are rightly outraged by this. The others have a serious look at yourselves. Football should never be the centre of your universe. Yes, we all love United, but there are more important things in life.

Things accumulate to reach a tipping point. I have come very near to that point right now. Others will have their own tipping points, or not have any at all. I speak for myself.
PR Stunt.
The papers will talk about what a great job he’s doing when we sign Bruno.

How is that not condoning it?
Also condoning it doesn't mean you think it's a good thing.
Well, they've helped the Glazers / Woodward... as you've said in your post.
This is how I feel as well. It's just a game that I watch for entertainment because I like the sport of football, and I like United. It makes it really weird reading this thread and seeing people talking about fans being pushed to this sort of action by his mismanagement of the club. The mental leap it takes to go from a game of football and some managerial/transfer decisions to actually showing up at someone's house is crazy for me to imagine.
“United, Kids, Wife. In that order”.
Look up condoning mate. You're talking utter fecking shit.How is that not condoning it?
Also condoning it doesn't mean you think it's a good thing.
Please quote anything I've written that you feel 'condones' this.
I'm actively angry that this has happened.
Right on the ball!
Wise your head
I reckon the earth is flat as well.How is that not condoning it?

Did the moon landing actually happen?
Is the earth flat or round?
Is Paul Walker still alive?
People who put United before their families are not particularly nice human beings to he honest.
I know what condoning means, thanks, but I do actively apologise if I've misconstrued you, I hadn't read your earlier posts.
Still, I vehemently disagree with the idea that it's OK to say "well his image will look great after it", as if there are any positives to be taken from such a heinous act.
Thinking it is worrying that 20 masked men show up outside a house chanting the owner is going to die and throwing flares is "snowflake mentality"?
You are so tough, it is very impressive.
Who's drawing any lines at this event.
That Palace lad that died was all because of cnuts like this.
It is indeed a weird thing to be proud of.
You wonder what is going on in their lives to act the way they do .
Even the act of adults going to a football match and chanting a man should die is just so utterly pathetic . Then this going to someone's house to threatening and vandalizing.
Absolute lunacy they should be locked in a padded cell
My only surprise its taken so long, he's worked for United for 13 years and was one of main advisors in the takeover.
I guarantee he wouldn't have lasted this long at any of Europe's biggest club where a takeover was possible, there's no chance he'd have lasted this long at Liverpool.

You know man. I can't say this any clearer than this, so here it goes: F*** Y** and this absolute F*CKING garbage opinion.
"Hopefully he gets scared"? Man.. Just don't. The man's family lives there any you're actually looking for a silver lining? I am beyond disappointed that someone here would have such a view of this incident. You need to talk to someone if you somehow think this can be justified.
And hey. To anyone else that actually defends this. Please let yourself be known so I can put you on my ignore list and classify you as filth.
People that will attack someones home, ESPECIALLY where a mans family lives, because of a difference of opinion, are at the bottom of the barrel for me. You are all so dumb it physically hurts so know I have to breathe the same air as you degenerates. You are scum, and nowhere near worthy being a supporter of this great institution.
Guys, if you ever think a victim is lying or has staged an event you keep it to yourself till you have something more concrete so it doesnt beome obvious your prejudice is the source of your suspicions. Some have even spun entire tales around their suspicions and called others snowflakes for not seeing it
Same kind of knobheads who chucked red paint on Maurice Watkins car & went round for a "chat" with Rio when he was delaying on a new contract. Not only does it give United fans a bad name, but it achieves feck all apart from other knobheads thinking you're the man. Tits.
He should think of children and hand his notice in.

@VeevaVee defends it and I can confirm he is filth.
What I said is that this is 'highly beneficial for Woodward's image' - which it is - undoubtedly.
And I don't view that as a good thing, personally.
To put it another way - This act is detrimental to Manchester United - right at a time when the club was starting to Unite it's voice against the utter fecking cretins who are ruining the club.
A bunch of fecking moronic idiots chucking a flare at a cretin's mansion doesn't change my opinion on Woodward - why would it?
Definitely not the right target, his home. A lot of other places to protest at.
Can see Ed hiring a security guard now, haggle over the wages and wait til G4S shows interest in the guy. Once finalised, the only instruction the poor man will get: "watch this space!"

All right - I can agree with that.
Football is basically religion and life to many. This is basically fundamentalism.
You think these self-entitled idiots won't do the same to the next bloke. It would serve them right if they brought in somebody who is worse and stopped spending altogether just to be bloody minded.
This is all he needs to make him in to a marter in the eyes of the public. You know the media is gonna eat it up with a spoon, most of the public is waiting for our downfal so they'll side with who ever it is ruining the club in Utd. fans' opinion.
I hope guys who did this get arrested, their names published, lose their jobs and get banned from any United games to come.
You're not fans if you do this. We're above that!

It's a step too far, idiots. Every fanbase has them. But when the idiots start the battle is lost.
Not okay. I think they should go on a hunger strike.
They should get out more, or try a different hobby.
Well, at least we're in the top 4 for once.
Disgusting? It was wrong no two ways about it but disgusting? They threw some flares over a huge big gate at the end of the day. It was hardly crime of the century was it? Shouldn't have happened but it was hardly disgusting was it? Nobody was attacked. Nobody was harmed. Nobody was even home.
Yeah you’re right. I forgot he was already here to help with the takeover.
To be fair, that could simply be the order of the bottom 3...
I do think this type of thing will have a very real effect on how much someone would want to take the director of football role if we are actually hiring one, especially assuming we would target someone who has a lot of other options. It is abundantly clear that it would be a very challenging job with no guarantees of success, seeing that this could be the consequence to failing might make someone think twice.
Probably because there isn't anybody stupid enough to be married to them.It is indeed a weird thing to be proud of.
Absolute muppets
