Have you?
Who’d have thought they could smuggle a red bus into Old Trafford during a protest.Sky sports just showed the Liverpool team getting off the bus . The bus was red
Don't want to criticise the boys and girls out there being active, but aren't they a bit late? How did the timeline for today look?
The shock when a few bottles are thrown or an awkward chant is sung, hilarious.
Have you guys actually seen footage how it was like in the 70s and 90s, that was shocking fan behavior….
I mean you have been in a pub on a Friday or Saturday night right?

Should have set off earlier.
This is a discussion board thread about the protest. What are we supposed to discuss here, my grandma's favorite pie recipe?
Throwing bottles at a bus is one thing, but I can't pretend to be outraged over a mean song about the owner.
A hell of a lot more than you can assure you of that.
5.30 meet, 7pm start down to stadium.
Apple and rhubarb?
Update: missus just sat spag bol on my lap.
Told her to be ready for dessert. Know what I mean?

I've never been there, but isn't an hour to the stadium a bit optimistic?

He isn't wrong. A stadium full of paying customers and millions watching across the globe isn't exactly going to make the Glazers decide this is the last straw and they need to sell
I guess I'm a sad loser based on this post, so I'll bite with a reply: If you are wanting advice on which chants to use for the next protest, my advice would start with "Avoid death threats, racism, xenophobia. Stick to the facts. Truths hurt more than insults."
There are so many ways you can have a protest without alienating people from your cause. You want people to join in, not walk away. If I were in Manchester and there were a Glazers Out protest going on, I'd probably consider joining in for sure because I agree with their cause. But if the chants went like this, I'd walk away. I'm not going to compromise my own principles for the sake of mob mentality.
It's really not a deriding of the reason you're protesting or the cause for which you fight. It's constructive criticism because we want the protest to do well.
Can get to the stadium in 20 minutes from there, I imagine double whilst marching there, they’ll pick up a lot of fans on the way. I expect a lot of fans will miss KO.
About 10 minutes away from memory
Had me worried that this was true for a moment until it finally clicked.
Good to see. Also nothing outrageous at all so far. Keep it going lads

Both teams at the stadium
I may be was over the mark but it seems some are eager to call the protest a failure as quickly as possible.
Came here to post that.
I think if you have that many people protesting its clearly an issue for the club. The nature of the protest should be completely irrelevant.
I wouldn't call it a failure, the point is to send out a message and the message is being heard. Just be careful of the message you send if you want to grow your protest base.
Sky not showing anything about the protest yet (unless I missed it)
Still feel a GreenAndGoldCafe wouldn't be terrible for occasions like this 
The US coverage (streaming) just had an overhead shot of the protesters marching to the stadium and it looked impressive.
What's his advice?
We want rid of the glazers is a pretty straightforward message. Individuals acting the bolox or otherwise wont change the message
It'd have to be a pretty damn robust cafe! Plastic mugs and allStill feel a GreenAndGoldCafe wouldn't be terrible for occasions like this
Unfortunate how some fans will criticize or mock every attempt to protest, no matter what.
Because they’re cnuts
That would make a good chant, reusable.
