I would love that too, but then in 18 months the Glazers pull United out of the PL.

If you’re a glazer, why would you sell?

I’ll tell you why, because somebody offers you money you can’t refuse. No other reason for them to leave.

They are investor owners.

The way to hurt them is in the pocket.

Acting like an idiot on the pitch will do little.

If fans are serious, then ST renewal date must be close by. Make your stand then and if there are still enough willing buyers to fill the ground then clearly the feeling is not that strong.

If this is asking too much then dont buy shirts/merch. Dont buy food and drink on match day. Boycott their main sponsors

You starts costing the owners in the pocket then they might listen. Remember, they dont care about the fans, they care about their investment.

You can't postpone games indefinitely, season has to end. It will end up costing us financially through fines or points deduction so hopefully the Glazers are taking note.

What if the club stops making the kind of money that it does currently?

Always attack the money. If you have a SKY or BT subscription, then cancel it. If you have a season ticket, then don't renew it.

If everybody did that, football would have to reset to levels uninteresting to corporations. Most of today's greed driven players would retire and the game would return to the fans after the initial pain.

Ultimately, whilst I fully back the fans today, this will mean nothing to the Glazers. They don't give a fack. The guy born and bred in Manchester will give up his season ticket out of principal and to.try and hurt the Glazers.... then there are 100 more waiting for that ticket who don't care about Newton Heath and history.

I suppose i mean to say in my OP, that surely (obviously this is hypothetically) if we carry on causing games to be postponed for say 12 months, its going to have some kind of effect?

Again, I want to reiterate i want this to be resolved peacefully, but if it means drastic steps that are peaceful, then im all for it.

It's only a matter of time before they take us out of the PL now, so we need to yes peacefully do something drastic before that happens

I had little sympathy for this cause. But now it can feck right off.

Violence is never OK

Delaying football matches is never OK

These actions only hurt fans.

The owners are not going anywhere and nor should they. If I were the Glazers, I'd laugh and keep winding up United fans. What a bunch of entitle tools United fans can be.

As always, the vocal minority ruin things for everyone.

Gonna be a headache to reschedule this fixture.

The only way I can see them taking enough notice to do something, whether that be sell up or otherwise, is if fans don’t renew season tickets and no one buys a ticket for a few home games or more. That’s obviously not going to happen. If we sold zero season tickets there’d still be plenty of people paying to go every week (obviously once fans are allowed back as normal)

I kind of agree with this. What is the point of being a football fan if you actually are prepared to stop your team from playing football? Seems illogical to me. And what gives these self entitled boozed up "fans" the right to decide what actions should be taken?

No fans in stadiums, breaking TV deal arrangements, lots of fines etc

To answer the op, money talks and it’s all they will understand, however that is manifested.
On today, I think there should be large, noisy, but peaceful protests. However they should never have went on the pitch, resorted to violence or gotten the game postponed.
And one thing that I really don’t understand is protesting outside Uniteds team hotel. If this is about the owners, then why are they protesting where the players and staff are, if the game had went ahead this would just have disrupted our own team. That part is Idiotic if you ask me.

What exactly is on the line here? Top 4 more or less guaranteed for us, other than that it was more of a loss to City (delaying the inevitable) and more so Liverpool who are chasing a slim chance of CL qualification

However, I don't for a second condone COVID-19 breaches, breaking and entry, trespassing, criminal damage and attempt to set Graham Sourness' hair ablaze using a flare!
