Manchester United beat Brentford 3-0 on Monday night thanks to goals from Bruno Fernandes, Cristiano Ronaldo and Raphael Varane. But, as well as showcasing some of the best football that the team have played all season, the win acted as a 'farewell tour' for some of the club's faithful servants over the past few years.
Manchester United fans protest in green and gold to send Glazers a reminder
16.04.2022 - 19:05 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Manchester United fans gathered in force on Saturday to protest the Glazer ownership. Organised by fan group The 1958, the aim was to march against the club's ownership due to broken promises in the wake of the failed European Super League over a year ago.
The march was set to begin at 2pm, with participants marching to Old Trafford ahead of the visit of Norwich, but most fans began to gather in anticipation over an hour earlier. Drinks were flowing but fans were in good spirits and the message was clear: they wanted the Glazers out, they wanted "the head of the snake" removed.
One fan, who was stood near fences erected to hang flags, said: "It’s a slow burner, it’s going to take time. We’ve got to get people on board, unite the fanbase and get everyone realising the best thing for Manchester United is to get rid of the Glazers."

As the clock ticked towards go-time, fans at the Tollgate were in full voice and the pub soon hit the 900-person capacity. People soon spilt onto the street outside as numbers further swelled - and then the flares came out.
Talking to fans just before they departed for the stadium, some expressed a welcome surprise at the turnout. Others likened it to the calm before the storm as 2pm edged closer.
And when the march did hit the streets, it was in droves. More than a thousand in number, including teenagers, adults, kids and parents, set off for Old Trafford.
A few climbed on top of buses and up traffic lights, others held up flags and let off flares, but the protest, on the whole, stuck by the promise of a ‘peaceful’ event. The colours were clear: green, gold, red, white and black.
The chanting continued
