Interesting .. both Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher have come out in support of the protestors (via the Echo .. I don’t have Sky)Disgraceful fan behavior, according to The Robbies.
Not just that ... the general security situation is still up in the air .. The United buses at their hotel were under some sort of a police lockdown.Yah, no game today I would guess. They got into the players areas. They destroyed some of the cameras for the broadcast.
That silly splinter club got into the 5th tier, although now they've had back-to-back relegations. Still, they'll end up as a slightly lesser AFC WimbledonThe thing about criticizing these protests is that while you don’t want this to become anything like the norm it isn’t like United fans haven’t been protesting the Glazers peacefully for years. They did that silly splinter club and have had anti glazer movements before. Violence and rioting isn’t necessarily the answer but I’m not sure more of the same was going to work

Well, they are providing their faces and addresses by posting themselves on social media.Interesting that the police aren't kettling like US police forces do. I guess they'll just arrest who they want later?
The hotel is 4 miles from Old Trafford.Stadium isn’t in Manchester
That would be an interesting way to clinch the league.Points deduction and a statue of the glazers needs to be built
The “silly splinter club” is the greatest thing Man U fans have ever done. To have the moral fiber to turn your back on the club that offered so much easy glory to create a club built from scratch because football means community to you...I don’t give 10 fucks which league that club is in, that club means something more than most others in England.The thing about criticizing these protests is that while you don’t want this to become anything like the norm it isn’t like United fans haven’t been protesting the Glazers peacefully for years.

Tomorrow’s a Bank Holiday in England. Maybe they are worried about a repeat?Why can’t be it tomorrow? I think that makes the most sense given the advantage we have over Roma on Thursday. Play the kids and back ups and we’d be fine.
If anything the extra day of rest might help
A lot of teams in European Football stay the ~24h before each home game in a hotel. Routine, prevents partying, etc...The hotel is 4 miles from Old Trafford.
I think he’d be able to grab one of the Serie A prestige jobs - a slower speed of play, clubs still aching to make a splash, and Jose killed it last time in the league.It’s probably thread worthy, but I think it’s beyond time to discuss Mourinho’s future. Will he ever get a prestige job again? Looks like after ManU, the answer is no.
Well said Justin.The “silly splinter club” is the greatest thing Man U fans have ever done.

And Zomp is right- whatever truths exist about United fans being bangwagoners who aren’t from Manchester, the fans who are local have always had a passion to match anywhere in the country.
Saudi Arabia come on down!In case anyone is wondering about the Glazers’ asking price for United - it’s $10b.
how about Dave Fishwick? how many minibuses does he have to sell?Saudi Arabia come on down!
Just announced as the new manager of Roma for 21-22.It’s probably thread worthy, but I think it’s beyond time to discuss Mourinho’s future. Will he ever get a prestige job again? Looks like after ManU, the answer is no.
I'm literally stunned. I can't wrap my brain around what anybody is seeing in him at this point. He's more concerned with getting quips in to the media than he is managing his team. His players consistently hate him earlier in his tenure. It's insane.Just announced as the new manager of Roma for 21-22.
He can remind Edin Dzeko that he needs respect for his 3 Premierships. Three.I'm literally stunned. I can't wrap my brain around what anybody is seeing in him at this point.
