So make it uncomfortable for them. Our matches are on practically every week on one of the networks. Protest at the ground. By all accounts Ed kept away at Burnley, the club tried to get the plane protest stopped . Some situations make them uneasy. Some good old fashioned crowds with banners and plenty of noisy protesters. We can't necessarily get rid of them but we need to stop making life so easy for them. Bad publicity is the way to go. I agree, but other than that green and gold thing how many other protests have there actually been? You can visit plenty of other United forums and find a view that seems in complete contrast to ours on here, so an even bigger problem presents itself. If a large enough group of so called fans are happy with the way things are then nothing will happen. The problem with the green and gold is when you are protesting about the ownership and then going into the megastore on route to take your seat at the game it's all a bit hollow. This is why I admire those fans who started Fc, direct action. Don't pay their bills anymore. Unfortunately there are plenty of fans who hate them. I went on Saturday , it was an Fa cup qualifying game and just over 1000 turned up. There was around 9000 fans at the Wigan v Bristol league game the day before. There's still loads wearing United shirts at the games. They haven't been disloyal, just fed up of what's happening to the club and I fully understand why. I got fed up arguing with some bozos on another forum about the Glazers and fc. They took great delight in every dropped point by fc and continuously argued that the money was there when Fergie was trotting out the company line of no value in the market. They think all the problems start and end with the manager. The same members mocked me for saying Rooney was ready for the MLS during Van Gaals second season when he was obviously finished. Never underestimate the number of idiots that support football clubs where ever they may be.

Certainly not. It's just a symptom of it. Unfortunately, our biggest problem is unremovable. Not quite. It's whether some of the fans have the appetite to create ripples for the board The plane was a good start. As for some fans moaning about the image it creates, Fergie and Busby's dynasties have been whored out to every tin pot business they can find for cash, the manner in which the last two managers were sacked was a disgrace. Our CEO informed one of our legends he wouldn't be getting a new deal in a corridor of all places. Allowing 2 failing managers to continue despite both passing the point of new return. De Gea still yet to sign a new deal despite the shadow of Madrid disappearing off into the horizon. Hopefully this apathy within the club has shaken some hard core fans to take direct action.....legally ! The club are tarring the image far more than a plane ever could. Allowing 3 failing managers to continue...

Somewhat unstable politically with the addition of being in Messi's shadow and at the same time under his thumb if rumours are true.

Never underestimate the number of idiots that support football clubs where ever they may be. Boycotting the club’s business partners would be more effective than empty seats or waving scarves. I don’t like the idea of boycotting games anyway

Well shit - I was just about to buy a Yanmar tractor and ride it to the shop to get some Nissin noodles Well go ahead and do that, but make sure your morning coffee isn't a Melitta. Every little help counts. I've been shopping for The North Face instead of Columbia since the latest transfer window.

In fact, I'm slurping one now. God damn you, you corporate machine Woodward.

www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-6204685/Arsenal-join-Inter-Milan-chase-20m-rated-Rennes-star-Ismaila-Sarr.htmlArsenal are ready to battle it out with Inter Milan for the signing of Rennes wonderkid Ismaila Sarr, who has been likened to Barcelona's Ousmane Dembele. The 20-year-old's stock is constantly rising, and he scored his first Europa League goal last week - a superb volley against FK Jablonec. Rennes are said to want around £20million for their star man, and the Daily Mirror report that Arsenal are keen to spend big on such a huge prospect. theres more to the article. but for 20m why aren't we taking a punt ?

So Sanchez, are we still fully behind him, or would people be open to binning him off if an offer came in?
