Didn’t a fans group announce during the week they’d protest and block the coaches reaching the stadium? 

Think this is correct - was mentioned they should have been more prepared.

The only date we should look at is 2 days before the Europa final if has to be rearranged.

They’d be allowed fans in the stadium by then.

Collymore on Twitter saying they need 2 hours to clean the ' touch ' Points at the ground, if that's true then this game is touch and go imo 

I suspect Collymore knows fuck all.

Doyle on the Echo is reporting some got into the home dressing room which is a breach of red zone protocols? Not confirmed by anyone else.

[magicrat]

I'm sure Sky want it postponed now as it will clash with the Spuds game if delayed .

Fuck off, Collymore, this is football, not fucking rugby. There are no touch points.

If kick off is delayed more than 45 minutes I could well see that.

We should refuse any alternative date apart from one two days before europa league final.

Yep, though you just know the PL will cry about that delaying the end of the season, as though that’s not an arbitrary date that can easily be changed with notice. Looking at the fixtures, the only other date that should be acceptable from our perspective is the day either side of their game against Leicester. Gives us three days after Southampton or three days before West Brom.

Yep, stir the pot and stand back from the shit storm that follows.

Klopp was spot on when he said everyone needed to calm down.

Its probably a term he learnt in secluded car parks late at night

Yeah and that jug eared cunt on BBC \ BT said he was 'tone deaf' for saying it!

[Chocoholic]

On the other hand, if this is postponed, it'll mean we'll have a game in hand and can call upon our nearest and dearest about how to best take advantage of that situation.

[YorkshireRed]

Did I just hear a Sky News Reporter suggest to his Anchor that they cut short his report as there was a danger that some fans in his vicinity might be about to behave in a way that would undermine the protest?

 

Fucking outrageous if my old ears weren’t deceiving me!

[dockers_strike]

PL to update Sky at 4pm on revised kick off.

[Preston Red]

That gobshite Nevin was on 5Live bleating on about this is a good move by the fans...

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Sky News showing an air ambulance landing in one of the Old Trafford carparks. Also, their roving reporter asked the director to cut away as he said "tensions are high" and he didn't want to risk some fans doing things on camera that would jeopardise the overall peaceful message of the protests. 

 

Call it off. United have fucked up. They've provided inadequate security for the game, with forewarning that protests were likely. They've had their leniency when they left the dummy bomb in the bogs that time. Take some proper action against them now. Plus, if fans know they can just get matches cancelled without any consequences for their club then that's a recipe for disaster. So, if it is off, 3 points to us. 

[dockers_strike]

Echo reporting anticipated 6:30pm kick off.

 

united Team buses being 'readied.' Can they assure the safety of OUR players andthere wont be another invasion of the pitch though?

[El Rojo]

Any pontification from Gar-eh yet?

Fuck that. Three points for the away team.

Bummer , this uncertainty and speculation far better than playing these cunts at football 

[Lee909]

20 point deduction and forfeit the game that's how this morale outrage works isn't it. 

[torahboy]

This seems to have been organized both by protesting fans and Old Trafford security. This demonstration was widely publicised so it makes me wonder why the police haven't been in attendance in numbers to handle the protest, but gaining access to the ground seems to have been achieved without too much resistance. 

 

 

Growing mould till the club is sold.

“We want Glaziers out” is the chant.

 

Really Geoff, sounds like “You Scouse Bastard” to me.
