This is why we protest.👇 Only our loyal supporters can stop the rot and protect our home, our culture and our heritage. The warning signs are here. It’s up to us! Absolutely bang on @TraMufc 👊🇾🇪

Right after the tongue in cheek piss take (a bit cringy to) yesterday which was sent to us, time to get serious. This shouldn’t need explaining but this protest is against 👉Glazers (dysfunctional/inept owner partnership) 👉INEOS/Ratcliffe (dysfunctional/inept owner partnership) 👉Inept executives (Barreda/Wilcox) This is our full press release. 🗣️PRESS RELEASE: PROTEST ANNOUNCEMENT It has been an extraordinary and deeply troubling few days at Manchester United. On the pitch, we are watching mediocre performances from an average team drifting without identity, direction, or ambition. Off it, the chaos is even worse. A manager has reportedly been dismissed not primarily for abject performances against Grimsby, Everton, West Ham, and Wolves, but allegedly for a heated exchange with Jason Wilcox. Wilcox a man with just nine months’ experience as a Director of Football at Southampton is said to have attempted to interfere tactically, despite the club hiring Ruben fully aware of his rigid system. The situation beggars belief. This decision was allegedly endorsed by Omar Berrada, a CEO with no prior experience in the role, listening to the complaints of a close ally rather than exercising independent leadership. We are once again witnessing Manchester United being run by executives learning on the job, at the expense of results, stability, and credibility. Let us be clear: this is not a defence of Ruben or the football served up under him. Much of it was unacceptable. But his dismissal once again exposes the continued dysfunction at our club. Manchester United is now owned by a toxic partnership where fans are getting the worst of both worlds. The Glazers continue to cream money off the top, while Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS hammer supporters at the bottom. Together, they are running one of the biggest clubs in world football like a local corner shop penny pinching, short term, and utterly devoid of vision. WE CALL FOR A VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE IN THE OWNERSHIP, BERRADA AND WILCOX Over $1 billion has already been sucked out of Manchester United at the altar of greed. Sir Jim Ratcliffe has betrayed the hope and faith many supporters placed in him and INEOS. He was supposed to be change. Instead, he has become the perfect Glazer shield absorbing public criticism while Joel and Avram Glazer quietly continue their asset stripping behind the scenes. Nothing has changed. In truth, it is worse. Our club is run like a media circus. The social accounts a mess, the clubs a mess with access and tickets thrown about like confetti to influencers. Fan culture being destroyed on and off the pitch INEOS’ incompetence is now clear for all to see. The direction of their intentions is obvious. We expect further marginalisation of match-going fans, continued bullying of season ticket holders, and an accelerated move toward a future where supporters are priced out entirely. A model where fans pay £100-£150 per match, mirroring the grotesque PSL system, is no longer a distant threat it is looming closer with every decision they make. Our club again leading the way across the Premier League in how to exploit not reward loyalty. Fans have been banned from home and away games, not for violence or disorder, but to free up tickets to be sold to tourists chasing a “once-in-a-lifetime experience”. We’ve had the club flouting their own rules and passing on away tickets to darts players. Leeds away should have been a line in the sand. It wasn’t. We warned about this. We warned where this was heading. Too many are now sleepwalking into the abyss. Earlier this season, we asked supporters if they wanted to protest. Many chose to give Sir Jim time. That time has been squandered. The situation is undeniably worse. That is why we will protest at Fulham at home on Sunday 1st February (or Spurs on the 7th should the club decide the Munich remembrance takes place on the 1st).
