Organiser Steve Crompton told The Sun: “For me it’s all based around match-going fans. Another one is the culture needs bringing back.

“The Red Army is constantly getting pushed back to the point that the TRA is not even recognised anymore, which is shocking in itself.

“Matchday tickets need to be more affordable for matchgoing fans. If you go on the United website there are no tickets available for members but you can get hospitality seats starting at £300.

“For me it’s all about protecting fan culture, which sadly is slowly eradicating.

“The owners either need to change or they need to start listening.

“Ratcliffe and his merry band of men that got on board were quoted saying they would ‘put Manchester back in Manchester United’.

“But he has taken everything away. For matchgoing fans there is nothing.

“They also need to stop swapping and changing managers because it costs money and they expect supporters to foot that bill.

“It’s ridiculous.”
