Manchester United fans are planning a mass walkout in the next home game against Wolves on February 1st, as reported in The Mirror.
The walkout is set to happen on the 58th minute of the game. The time has been chosen to symbolize the Munich air disaster, which happened on the 6th February 1958.
Anti-Glazer and anti-Woodward chants such as ‘Love United, hate Glazers’ and ‘Ed Woodward is a w-nker’ have been ringing around the ground in recent games.
Woodward’s popularity is now at an all time low after failing to replace a number of outgoing players in the summer, leaving the squad threadbare and incapable of challenging for top spot.
The Glazers have also failed to invest sufficiently in the Old Trafford infrastructure, which is now decaying rapidly, with a leaking roof being among the multitude of maintenance issues that are not being addressed.
The recent shambles in the Erling Braut Haaland negotiations and current struggle to land Sporting Lisbon’s Bruno Fernandes have angered fans even more.
Ticket prices have also rocketed under the Glazer family.
Such is the animosity toward the Essex-born director that he has hired former Sun journalist Neil Ashton’s new PR firm to try to improve his image. This resulted in a laughable pro-Woodward column in The Sun by Neil Custis that has provoked the fanbase even further.
The walkout is being promoted on social media with the hashtag #58thMinuteWalkout.
