Everything Utd do at the minute (fan related) is in the spotlight. It often gets taken out of context and shared globally portraying, quite often, an unfair representation of the club.
The thing that confuses me the most is that it’s our own fans doing it.
The club doesn’t get everything right. But at the same time it’s not a charity, and its not your personal secretary. It has day to day operations to support, as well as servicing 50,000 season ticket holders.
If you’ve opted into a cup scheme, and your card payment can’t be taken for whatever reason, it’s not a conspiracy when the club apply repercussions. No-one is trying to get rid of all the loyal fans in this scenario. If you forgot to pay, or you’ve lost your card, or you’ve not updated your card details,’ that’s your fault ffs. Posting compo chasing screenshots onto here because you forgot to do something isn’t good for the club.

Im not saying Muslims should not be allowed or welcome in the uk. If they work hard and contribute.
I'm saying unvetted illegal Muslims who contribute fuck all who take, take, take who disrespect our culture. Should fuck off and not be allowed to stay. Simple really.

Why should I have to pay for some migrant to get a free house when I can’t afford to move out
Why should I have to pay for primarily Pakistani or Bangladeshi families to have 6 kids and not work, when I can’t afford one
Why should I have to pay for someone with ADHD to get a free BMW they don’t need, when I can’t afford a car
Why is it right that for the majority of young people, we have to go to work - to pay for others who don’t work, to live a better life than what we can afford
The system is broken
We need to bring back fairness.

I know David Beckham is getting a knighthood but why the hell has @LouMacari10 been overlooked again?
Any sort of honour would be ample recognition of his outstanding work in the community.
I don’t normally ask but I honestly feel this needs sharing so a RT or 2 would be nice 👍🏼

🗣️SJR & INEOS: A year of shame & disgrace
A year of INEOS and Sir Jim promised so much after the generational damage caused by Glazer ownership.
Sir Jim stated he wanted to put “The Manchester back into Manchester United”. Everyone thinking a local lad would understand the community, the working class and the fabric of our great club. Far from it and the disgraceful comments in the recent interview comparing United to Fulham back this up. Actions will always speak louder than words.
All the evidence so far shows a different picture.
→Price hikes for match going fans
→Removal of concessions for kids & pensioners
→Club staff losing jobs at all levels saving peanuts
→The Ashworth debacle costing millions
→Ticketing services impacted by cuts (away collections)
→Moral of the club and hopes of fans in the gutter
→Stewards bonuses being removed & numbers cut. You’ve seen the queues right (more on this another time)
→Donations to the charity that supports ex United players stopped without any notice.
Nothing but total contempt for the fans and the very fabric of what our club was built on.
Sir Jim’s strategy to cut costs is nothing other than an affront on the working-class foundations our club was built on. It’s a penny wise and pound-foolish approach. Hitting those most in need and can least afford it who have no voice is an act of cowardice and shows a total lack of understanding.
An investor with strength of conviction would address the real issues impacting the club. The Glazers.
Their mismanagement of the club for over 20 years. Their crippling debt placed on the club and the millions of pounds paid by the club in interest payments each year.
The strategy in place to recover from the Glazers shit show is targeting the vulnerable factions of our fan base.
We now have the worse of both worlds. An attack from the top down with the Glazers creaming off the club and an attack from the bottom up with the “local Failsworth lad” preying on those who can least afford it and have no voice.
This cannot continue! We will not allow this to continue!
If we do nothing as a fan base. Then there will be no more rivalries, no more fan culture. Only tourists and corporates happy for a day out with no emotional attachment.
We are up for the fight.
Is the Supporters Trust (how long are you going to stand by and do nothing)?
Is the fanbase?
In times of adversity and hardship we all need to look to each other for the light.
It’s your choice.
It’s now or never.
No matter who you are underestimate the fans and Mancunians at your peril.

COACHES, IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU. PARENTS, IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU EITHER. IT SHOULD ALL BE ABOUT THE KIDS. ADULTS NEED TO PUT THEIR EGOS ASIDE AND REMEMBER WHAT & WHO IT'S ALL SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT!

Let's not pretend this doesn't happen.⤵️
Here’s a #Shoutout to all the kids who will get the last few minutes of games this and most weekends, the kids who spend more time on the sidelines than on the pitch.
Here’s to the children who, despite limited playing time, are among the first to arrive and the last to leave the club.
Here’s to those who long to play as much as their friends but take their reduced game time in their stride, week after week.
Here’s to the kids who may not always receive recognition for being "the best" but are committed to doing their best.
Let’s remember that these children have feelings, dreams, and ambitions just like everyone else.
Though we may not want to acknowledge it, we know this reality exists. So here’s your shoutout.

"Every child deserves their chance"
I’m old enough to know I’m not good enough to play, maybe it’s time for me to walk away....
I sit on the sidelines waiting my turn.
I can’t wait to get on and have energy to burn.
I tried my best in training.
I tried my best at school.
I’ve behaved well for Mum and dad and always for coach.
I ask coach if I can play and he says the game is really tight.
If you let me on I will play with all my might.
It’s not so fun stuck on the side alone.
While my friends are playing and I’m cold to the bone.
I know others are better but I always try my best.
How will I get better if I don’t play with the rest.
My coach wants to win, I just want to play.
This is my childhood at the end of the day.
I thought this was fun but it’s not anymore.
Coach isn’t interested in me only the score.
I’m old enough to know I’m not good enough to play, maybe it’s time for me to walk away...

Anyone else see this strange light in the sky last night? This was in the north west at about 2am. Pretty poor picture but I was half asleep 🤣

The UK got 4% of its gas from Russia and nearly 70% of electricity from non-fossil fuel sources.
Yet bills went up 315%, far more than anywhere in Europe who were reliant on Russian gas.
This is because the whole thing was a scam to rob you, and more than 80% was profit.
