@petesunitedPOV This aged well

@ManUtd Which team wins without a midfield? None. And who’s to blame for the fact that we don’t have one? There’s a reason other teams are spending £100m or more on top-quality players.

[Hancy21 @Hancy211]

@ManUtd What did you expect? You get what you pay for. The board have done absolutely nothing. Let’s be realistic, Santos and Tielemans simply aren’t enough for what we want to achieve. Unfortunately, with these people in charge, this is the reality, and nothing is going to change.

[Hancy21 @Hancy211]

@ManUtd A young striker starts finding his form and growing confidence and he is already benching him, don't anyone try to tell me this bunch know what they are doing.

Sir Jim…

“More borrowing from the bank”

“Club bust by Christmas”

“The debt will be cleared when we are successful”.

How?

🗣️Message to Sir Jim.

Protests are not about football, performances or league position.

They never have been.

We protest to save our community.

To keep real fans going to watch United.

Young and old.

Protests are against 20 years of Glazer greed.

1 Billion stolen.

1 Billion in debt.

170 million in dividends.

Get the Glazers to remove the debt which the club pays millions a year in interest.

Get them gone!

Remove the elephant in the room.

[The 1958 @The__1958]

🗣️Today was a massive success and fans showed up in huge numbers.

Young, old, families, supporter clubs, some fans clearly struggling.

All for the love of our club and to fight for everything we stand for.

Worldwide media coverage turning the lens of greed back on our owners.

Each one of you made a statement that we have had enough. We will not take it any longer.

Many seem to think that a protest is a silver bullet. It is a war of attrition and the war to protect the best interests of our club, generational fans and football is underway.

We have always said it’s a marathon not a sprint and it requires resolve, dedication and commitment.

This will be more than protests at the ground and everyone will need to play their part.

Everyone who took part today at the ground or online will be on the right side of history.

Unified in solidarity under a single cause.

Stay the course and support each other.

Further updates will be released this week on what comes next.

🗣️HEADING INTO ARSENAL PROTEST 9TH MARCH: WHY PROTESTS WORK

Owners (especially ours) will always say protests don’t bother them (what do you expect them to say 🤷‍♂️) We know for a fact the protests had an impact before Glazers announced the strategic review (corporate speak for putting the club up for sale). We know from a source close to them. We know from the Arnold discussion. One day (if we ever do a book 😂) we will explain fully.

It disrupts operations, harms their reputation and impacts the bottom line.

Protesting works and here are just 10 reasons why:

🔴(1) Fan Power and Revenue Dependency

• Matchday Revenue: Clubs often rely heavily on ticket sales, merchandise, and concessions. Boycotting games/stands or refusing to buy merchandise or anything from the concourse directly impacts the owner’s income. More on this soon.
• Global Image: Fans often enhance the club’s global image. Protests, especially on social media or in the media, can damage this perception, which may affect sponsorship deals and brand. We have experienced this first hand.

⚪️(2) Public Pressure and Media Attention (Damage to Reputation)

• Protests draw widespread media attention, creating bad publicity for the owners. Sponsors and other stakeholders may pressure owners to act to protect their investments.
• Fans are the heart of the club’s identity, and negative public perception can push owners to engage with supporters to resolve issues.
• It turns the lens of greed back onto the owners
• Damage to their fake manufactured image with sponsors and investors
• Worldwide media coverage, national media coverage across all media formats. We have seen this with the protests before the strategic review and marginal investment was announced.

⚫️(3) Loss of control and power

• Protests challenges the authority of owners, signalling that fans are a significant stakeholder group capable of influencing club decisions. We know this first-hand in. Owners dislike protests as it undermines their control.

🔴(4) Political and Regulatory Influence

• Large scale fan protests can lead to government or league intervention. Like we seen with the protests over the European Super League that led to political figures speaking out and Glazer retreating before they pacified fans again with false promises. Some falling hook, line and sinker for their rhetoric.
• The Glazer clause for buying clubs implemented. A slap in the face for all United fans who have been failed by politicians and ruling bodies
• The bill underway in Parliament for a football regulator

⚪️(5) Unity Among Fans

• A unified fanbase amplifies the message, making it impossible for owners to ignore collective discontent. Clubs often pride themselves on their connection with supporters (tenuous with our lot) so sustained protests challenge this image.
• It’s a cathartic bonding experience for all fans. Join a protest you will find out

⚫️(6) History Shows It Works

• Examples like the European Super League collapse United fans protests against the Glazers (which eventually led to partial concessions like the sale of shares) prove that coordinated efforts can force owners to reconsider their decisions. Don’t let anybody tell you otherwise.
• Protests at Blackpool (against the Oystons) eventually led to the owners selling the club after fans boycotted games for years.
• Look at the examples outside football throughout the ages.

🔴(7) Impact on Club Performance

• Toxic atmospheres caused by fan unrest can negatively affect the club. Owners may act to protect the clubs competitiveness and their investment.

⚪️(8) Stakeholder and Investor Disruption

• Sponsors, players, investors and employees may become uncomfortable with prolonged unrest. This additional pressure can make owners reevaluate their stance or ownership.

⚫️(9) They can’t ignore fan sentiment forever

• Owners may be forced to make unpopular concessions such as putting the club up for sale, investment or spending more money such as knee jerk signings in an attempt to pacify fans (plenty of examples of this from our club). A collective voice will often leave owners with no choice but to act, even if it goes against their initial plans.

🔴(10) Emotional disconnect from fans

• Protests reinforce the divide between owners (often seen as outsiders), and fans, making it harder to build goodwill or any long-term relationship. This emotional disconnection can be difficult (in our case impossible) to repair

For protests to succeed, they must be sustained, well planned, well organised, and targeted at the areas that matter most to the owners, such as (but not limited to) finances, reputation, disruption, operational costs and external relationships.

Ultimately, protests disrupt the balance owners try to maintain between running a club as a business and preserving the identity as a cultural institution and community asset loved by fans. Not so much a balance at our club. Passion and persistence make protests a challenging issue for any owner to handle. Love will always beat greed.

We had to let the situation play out with the marginal investment into our club. It was the right thing to do. Let’s see how those cards fall.

However, we always said the clock is ticking, we are sure you have seen our banner. We will know fully the road we need to take on the 13th August.

Protesting and creative ways of doing them are one of the main tools we can use against the establishment. It is everyone’s democratic right to protest. They have an impact don’t let anyone tell you differently.

Foundations have been put in place for unity at a scale never seen before in our game.

There have been battles down the years but the great war to save football is about to begin.

See you all on the 9th March.

🗣️Shall we begin: Announcing protest Arsenal 9th March

We have been preparing for this for a few weeks in anticipation.

We are angry, the fans are angry and it’s been building for some time.

We have all been more than patient.

We all know the root cause, we have always known the elephant in the room.

Yet, this isn’t being addressed.

It’s those who can least afford it, have the most emotional connection with our club who are being asked to pay the price in more ways than one.

Trampling over generational support and memories of friends and family who handed the club over to us like something they have stepped in.

- The treatment of fans from the club
- The eradication of fan culture
- The assault on concessions and generational fans
- Putting profit before fan safety
- Putting profit before everything
- The total lack of communication and transparency
- The uncertainty of our clubs future

The club preach fan engagement the reality is they dont practice it. We know this first hand and have evidence.

ACTIONS NOT WORDS ITS NOT GOOD ENOUGH

They can hold meetings with the FAB which is all under NDA. It is supposed to be for the fans YET they can’t tell the fans anything. It’s a disgrace!

These meetings are effectively gagged and it is NOT open and transparent dialogue with fans. Not even close.

The silence from the club is deafening.

We rise again to defend our club and be warned this will not just be on the street campaigns at the ground.

Keep treating the fans with contempt at your peril

More details to follow in the coming days
