🗣️THE WARNINGS AND THE TRUTH
Four years ago we warned where this was heading.
We warned about the marginalisation and eradication of generational match-going Reds. Nobody listened.
We warned about the Americanisation of our game. Nobody cared.
We warned that if Ratcliffe didn’t change direction, he’d become another Glazer in all but name.
Polls said give him more time.
So we did.
We even postponed a protest at Arsenal because fans wanted to give him more time. Again we got abuse.
That decision demotivated lads in The 1958 who have sacrificed years of their lives, time, money and energy fighting for this fanbase and never asked for a thing in return. Some lads had personal abuse. Not after sympathy, those are the facts.
We never asked for nothing in return. We always preferred to be pissing from the outside in. Stood shoulder to shoulder with you.
We have banged on about unity since day one.
And for the last 12 months we have spent an unbelievable amount of time trying to make it happen.
Meetings
Calls
Messages
Statements
Campaigns
Endless frustration
Meanwhile some fans wanted to be edgy.
Some said it wasn’t their fight.
Some thought it would never affect them.
Well look around now.
Ticket prices.
Season Ticket sanctions.
Long standing Reds treated like suspects.
Time served Reds receiving banning orders.
Concessions disappearing.
More hospitality.
More premiumisation.
A future built around revenue, not supporters.
The chickens have come home to roost.
We take no pleasure in saying it, but we have got far more right than wrong.
And we wish we hadn’t.
This was never about being proved right.
It was about stopping it before it happened.
So now the question is simple.
Are you finally United around what we have been warning about since the day we formed?
Wake up and smell the coffee.
This is your Club.
This is your fight all generations all ages.
Are you with us, or against us?
Time is running out fast.
STAND BY.

All @ManUtd match-going Reds need to read this. Many will know my brother Harry. Has worked his socks off for fans for decades. I won my appeal, but the tone in the response painted a clear picture of the future. I stood with him and returned my Platinum #SeasonTicket too. 🔴⚪️⚫️
We as fans seem to fall into the same trap each summer, over promises and under achieving. I would love nothing more than having all our signings done by mid July, but United won’t do it. They live off clicks and social media interactions, then having last minute signings.
@TraMufc@MU_ST@OhCheesesChrist You’d think given United’s rigid position in banning ST holders many of whom are long serving fans of the club for allegedly accessing multiple tickets accounts, you’d think they’d start looking closer to home to try & explain how this can happen?
Here's @MU_ST taking the fight to the club 👇 by urging people to, er, just comply with whatever the Glazer-Rat regime demands, as they already have all the info being demanded anyway 🤔
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Collaborating tosspots
Some @MU_ST gofers have tried to counter criticism 👇, claiming no-one of legal standing can be found among 100s & 100s of Reds who've been targeted 🙄
Reality: MUST hasn't once indicated willingness to take legal action, nor appealed for those of locus standi to get in touch 🤡
12 days since Glazer-Rat regime begun its offensive vs 100s & 100s of Reds, @MU_ST still hasnt done anything meaningful in defence of fans it claims to represent
@OhCheesesChrist has produced post after post of practical advice, yet @MU_ST nor @ISLO_MUST has retweeted him once🙄
