owls maniac Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Absolute heroes! Now THAT is how you protest against parasite owners. Can’t wait to watch Sky squirm when the game gets called off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belfast Owl 2 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Will make fizz all difference to owners in USA who have hundreds of millions of fans elsewhere. FC United hardly made a difference to them. That sort of wannabe Ultra protest is a bit cringey imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penny for the thoughts of those who actually made a stand with FC United. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are still supporters of the club, they just refused to put money in the pockets of parasites. Many of whom had been priced out the club. You side with the billionaires though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can only focus on getting them out now, and this protest will get a lot of attention around the world and embarrass sponsors. Hit them where it hurts.

Abandoned modern football to take a proper stand knowing exactly where all this was heading. I’m being slightly unfair to these lads today I guess. Fair play to them for making a show and especially so if they get the game called off. It’s just a complicated issue for United because the big step to telling the Glazers to shove it was made years ago, and too many of their core support hasn’t been particularly bothered until now.

They went and supported another club, could have boycotted games etc but starting a new club isnt my idea of protest. Im not siding with the Glazers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is definitely a fair point. For me Fergie gets no where near enough blame for the takeover. He had the power to stop it but bottled it in order to consolidate his own power.

Abandoning modern football is a cliche. What happens if they progress to football lesgue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not siding with the Glazers It’s not like they went and supported City. They formed a new club, adopted the same colours and sing the same songs. It’s seen as continuing the traditions of MUFC. Above all else, it’s affordable to go and it’s fan owned. I think they deserve serious praise and have been an example of how fan ownership can work. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve been fantastic. This is fans against a global conglomerate. Only drastic action will cut through. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 That’s what we need to do! Although Chansiri tucked away in Thailand probably wouldn’t have a clue even if we did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mildatheart67 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Hope the game gets abandoned. More power to them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
