The footage I saw was of a guy throwing a tripod with no camera on it. Was there another camera thrown?
Protest at Old Trafford
- Thread starter Lennon7
- Start date
It’s not a dead rubber. It’s our chance to kill their top 4 hopes. We should be well up for it. I want blood today. Look at their defence.
Peacefully protest, sure, but no criminal behaviour like today. But that won't help if the same protesters take their seats at the Stretford End.
You’re so right. I was very impressed by the Arsenal fans last week, and more power to them.
It’s certainly is getting distilled down to such a granular level.
Thanks buddy, appreciate a rival fan understanding.
Being as you are in Florida can't you pop around Joel's house and tell him to feck off. Offer him $50 for the club, I will fund you.
Yup.
Proud day to be a united Fan
Peaceful protest...well done to everyone involved
Let’s keep it peaceful and kick this twats out of our club
No Investment in the club whatsoever by the Glaziers
Hope they would just sell and we hope we get someone decent to buy us

I might have missed something as I don't follow the situation closely, but what kind of violence happened?
100%.
Direct action is the only way now to save a 150 year old institution. Owners actions have shown that.
FFS stop trying to spin it as some sot of massive riot. A tripod got thrown, thats it.
77 approves this protest.
Good thing that it was not in Burma.
We got shot in the head and back with assaulted rifles just for carrying we want freedom placards while running away from the police.
Somebody stole a corner flag.
Violence towards who? Sorry? We’re club staff or security injured?
If a handful of idiots attacked the police then by all means arrest and jail them - you won't hear a single complaint from me.
But feck some of the sanctimonious posts in this thread about respecting the Glazers private property. Running onto the pitch and waving the corner flag around hurts nobody, it's not like the megastore has been burned down or statues defaced.
Hashtags and grumbling online will never bother the glazers, but disrupting games? They will notice that.
Would be different if fans were travelling from all over the country to watch the game, the only people in the building are being paid to be there

Attacking the police
Policeman injured due to violence in the protests.
Where is that clip with fan scoring volley goal? Please someone, help a man here
Its the same one I saw, can't get much more pacific than that.
Some of the pundits on the BBC like Jenas and Pat Nevin are out of touch.
It's not about 'embarrassing the club' its about getting toxic leeches that own the club and drain funds gone.
They won't sell otherwise, they'll continue to drain a transfer a season in dividends and add to the debt.

??... Do you think there shouldn't be any police anymore. What do you suggest.
I completely agree with your sentiment but they’re on fecking horseback mate. We don’t stand a chance.
Exactly
Police were injured.
Glazers rely on the majority of our fanbase being like this. Hurr durr buy all the shirts and the mugs and the posters and renew our season tickets and mutv subscriptions hurr durr durr.
Losing their minds at the mere idea of the game not going ahead.
Not contributed a single penny via purchase or sports TV package to Utd for over 7 years, because witholding money is a more effective method of protest. How many protestors were wearing spangly Chevrolet shirts?
Try again though.
That's deep..
Ugh Sky are making Gary recant.
Were they? Source?
They broke into the stadium, they damaged more than just a tripod and then started fighting the police. As well as making it an absolute shit tip. I'm not spinning anything. You are the one condoning criminal behaviour and spinning it as a good old time with the lads.
Is it just me who doesn't understand why everyone is moaning about "safety of players" and stadium being clear inside and out when ordinarily players play infront of 80,000 people and arrive outside grounds with hundred of people there.
Silent protest is fine but damaging the stadium, gathering in a very large number during a pandemic and jeopardizing the match, they are not United fans. If people like these wants to control the club, then I am happy with Glazers.
Sky sports said it a moment ago. They might bring it up again.
Your lack of understanding on how to enact change is a crime.
Some guy threw a camera which probably belonged to a poor multi billion corporation. That is where the CAF draws the line. Too much violence.
Well said.
