Using the 58th minute is incredibly tasteless.
Fans planning Old Trafford walkout
- Thread starter BluesJr
- Start date
I doubt THAT many actually follow through but massive respect to those planning this and massive respect to the fans that actually follow through. THis needs to become a regular thing. All Ed cares about are those conference calls, the more uncomfortable the fans can make those for him, the better.
2 ways of looking at it, the press will make it a bigger deal of it. But I do get what your saying.
Green and gold until the...
penny drops that it achieves nothing.

Bring it on
This is the best news I've heard in a while. A walk out is insanely effective tactic against crappy owners for a publically owned company like ours. The only thing the Glazer's care about is $$$.
A massive walkout would create negative media attention which would impact the stock price. The media attention combined with stock loss would create tension and devalue the "company" (as the Glazer's see it) and force change.

But singing about Woodward dying isnt?
What does one have to do with the other?
Don’t know why it has to be 58th minute but it is early enough to be quite a significant statement.
So why don't they all just pack it in, then? Give up. Stop attending, let the club just slowly dissolve into nothingness. Ole at the wheel in 2025, United 7th in the Championship, 70,000 sheep still spending £110 every year on a red shirt that looks exactly the same as the red shirt they bought 12months earlier - except instead of Skoda it has Lidl as the main sponsor, and it's made by Asics. 70,000 people still chanting 'Five Cantonas' around 30yrs after the bloke last kicked a ball for us. 70,000 people renewing season tickets to watch Jesse Lingard (c), a 34yr old man, who hasn't scored in 4 seasons, dabbing and moonwalking having had a deflected shot trickle into the bottom corner against Brentford away.
Yep, don't bother lads. Just strap in and enjoy the ride.
58th minute 
seems that our fanbase is just as fecked up as Ed and Ole. If you do it, do it the right way. And stay classy.
It wont help anyway, no matter how stupid you get and how many anti Ed and anti Glazers songs you sing or how often you walk out. There is some sort of level you shouldn't go under, which Old Trafford has reached. But the manager should be backed forever. Football fans arent the smartest i guess.

How is a walk out hitting them financially? Everyone has paid their money to get in that point. Hitting them financially means giving back season tickets, not going to matches in the first place and protesting outside an empty stadium.
The 58th minute is not the right time. It's a sad moment in our history that should be duly remember but not brought out as a battering ram for something like this. Sir Matt would be completely ashamed.
I see it as a tribute to those that perished in Munich.
Some of these players are not fit to lace the boots of some of the greats we lost
Duncan Edwards, Eddie Colman, Liam Whelan, David Pegg, Mark Jones, Geoff Bent, Tommy Taylor, and team captain Roger Byrne
Proper footballers.
A penny for the thoughts of Sir Matt and Jimmy Murphy.
Woodward out
Glazers out.
These two not fit to be mentioned in the same paragraph as Sir Matt Busby and Jimmy Murphy,
RIP

Cheer the feck up. No movement needs negativity like that. If majority of fans think like this, we're never getting anywhere.
Simply just do what you can, from where you are. Doesn't hurt. If it fails, so what? We've got nothing to lose and a lot to win.
58th minute does sound a bit wrong. Really wish they used another reference (if what they meant is true).
That said, hope absolutely no one will be in the stands after.

The match going fans did us proud on Wednesday night. Walking out in droves was such a powerful image which could not be ignored.
I was being sarcastic.
But it will put pressure on the Glazers.
Gotta beat the traffic I guess.
Everyone having a pop at the 58th minute chill out, it’s meant to grab attention.
Stop being offended at everything.

Wonder why nobody's ever flown a "Woody out" banner?
I got a cold sweat just from reading this
I'm all for this but the 58th minute is wrong. Munich is too significant to be used as a gimmick to express our discontent at this shower of gobshites.
68th minute would be better if they are set on some number of significance. Could play it off our first European Cup win and the greatness of what the club has and can achieve.

There will be a minute’s silence before this game for the Munich air disaster. And then we are walking out on the team in the 58th minute?
I hope this happens
planned for the 58th minutes. if we play like we did against Burnley in the 2nd half they will be moving it up to the 38th.
I'm pretty sure that it has already been done.
You wake up....
Think the 58 is that it was 58 years ago we last got beat at home by Burnley
Hope all corners of the fanbase can get behind this and support those who partake. Can only do positive things for the short-medium-long term for this club we hold so dear. The management is really taking the piss and only a mass walkout will create the visual impact that is needed to get the attention that is needed to drive change.
They should all walk out on the 8th minute, Bruno Fernandes' shirt number.
good one.Good God. Make it the 60th or 70th minute. No need to draw Munich into it. Stupid idea. Apart from being disrespectful this might also scare some off from joining
If the whole stadium is chanting glazers and Woodward out stuff, organising walkouts and hassling sponsors until the glazers leave then that’s pretty much all we can do as fans. Flags and banners saying the same so it cannot be missed by anyone. They absolutely deserve the heat to be turned way up on them from all sides and it’s finally happening. Not gone on the 58th minute for the walkout though. Why not just do the whole first half and come in for the second and rip the corporate side to bits with chants and booing. It’s doubly effective then. Also why not stay on after the final whistle and chant too?
As is a fly over, but that seems lost on the hard of thinking.
Might be hard to tell if we're 2 or 3 nil down by half time.
At this point what else can the fans do? Hope it's effective.
Snowflake mentality if you think there’s anything wrong with the 58th minute. It’s not a gimmick, it’s a powerful symbol that the club we have right now isn’t what it’s supposed to be. The players who died on that horrible day would be sickened by the current regime, they’d support this as well.
Do I detect a subtle hint of sarcasm?
We concede 8
