daored Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 Seems to be a lot of noise of Man Utd fans attempting to stop this game tonight in protest against the ownership of the club. They managed to postpone the game recently, can’t see them being able to stop the game after last time and full crowds this time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool will have prepared and travelled, can't just move it because United fans don't fancy it tonight.

Ecko Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 1 minute ago, Monkeh said: How do United spend millions on players then? Commercial revenue. It is well-documented that Glazers have offloaded their personal debt onto the club, and don't put a penny themselves back into it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colemanballs Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 I know it's highly unlikely, but (in my best Kevin Keegan voice) I'd love it, just love it, if United won tonight and went above the scousers. I detest Liverpool with an absolute passion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiltshire robin Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 Can somebody please explain why their owners are hated so much ? . Whilst they’ve spent money on some dross they’ve also bought in world class players like varane , Ronaldo and arguably Sancho and Bruno Fernandez .

Over £800m of the football club's generated funds have so far been taken out to service the interest on the loans the Glazers took to purchase the club I believe. Old Trafford is creaking at the seams and their training ground has been left behind by a lot of Prem clubs. Add to that terrible mis-management of the football side of things and the modern focus on wealthier fans and you have the main reasons for their malcontent. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshtonRobin21 Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 I completely understand the fans anger towards the owners. But I couldn't help but laugh when I saw the protest temporarily stop whilst they welcomed their new £70 million player into the stadium. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
