About this deal

United bought to win the Premier League and Champions League and succeeded with their strongest-ever squad. Neither Woodward nor any of the six siblings listed on the United board of directors were present for the post-Ferguson nadir against Burnley. Players were banned from discussing the campaign, MUTV were forbidden from referring to it and a supporter was ejected from Live at the Red Cafe for refusing to remove a green and gold scarf. If the three-handled pot was so insignificant to Neville then pictures of him clutching it with Ferguson and Wayne Rooney would not have appeared in his book. We are a very well-run club and given what's happening at other clubs, people should be proud of what's happening at Manchester United.

Man United fans started a rebellion against the ownership by the Glazer family 10 years ago with the green and gold movement and it could start again. In 2018, Berbatov claimed he told his agent, 'f--- off, we're going to Man United' upon learning of City's new riches. On an eclectic list that includes Richard Wilson, Terry Hall, Ian McShane, Pete Boyle and Harry Gregg, Solskjaer is listed as a patron of MUST.Most recently, he revealed tacit support for the anti-Glazer protest, until now a position stated only by Cantona and Solskjaer. Midway through 2009-10, United were second and two points adrift of Chelsea and ended the decade with a 5-0 dismantling of Wigan Athletic, though that did not temper the outcry at United's decision to pull out of a deal for the Serbian teenager Adem Ljajic. The former spokesperson of the Glazers, Tehsin Nayani, was so vexed by Beckham's publicity stunt he contacted Joel Glazer. The rebellious scarves were held aloft for a chorus of 'Forever and ever' and photographers zoomed in on the terraces. Similar problems were also evident at Anfield, where Liverpool's own American owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett had not managed to refinance before the crash, with the result that their club was plunged into crisis, with Hicks and Gillett forced to cede ownership.

It was in response to a query about the mutinous chants focused on the United owners, the Glazer family, and the club's executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward. When he died in 2014 following a stroke, the controlling stake he owned in Manchester United was split equally between his six children. Joel, Avram and Bryan sat in the directors' box for the first time in the Champions League qualifier against Debrecen that August. Alongside United, the Glazers have a longstanding ownership of NFL team Tampa Bay Buccaneers, following Malcolm Glazer’s original purchase in 1995. I grew up as a United fan and the last thing I did as a young kid was to look to see who was in the directors' box.A 'United against Glazer' banner was unfurled and it is impossible to pinpoint a celebratory picture of matchgoers without a fleck of Newton Heath colours.

Ljajic was paraded at Carrington with Zoran Tosic in January of 2009 and Ferguson bragged Ljajic was 'the star of the tournament at the Uefa Under-19 Championship'. Only the ash cloud eruption of Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland prevented any of them from attending the final home match with Stoke.During the 2010 pre-season tour of the United States, a colourful United fan who often dons a green and gold jacket had a photo with Avram Glazer in a hotel elevator. With his lap of honour nearly complete and 'There's only one David Beckham' echoing around the Stretford End, a lone green and gold scarf was thrown onto the saturated turf as Beckham approached the tunnel. In retrospect, United won the FA Youth Cup the following season with their most exciting academy side since the Class of '92 and a 16-year-old Paul Pogba had just joined from Le Havre.
