Manchester United fans are being urged via social media to avoid Old Trafford when Liverpool visits this month.
On 22 August, the Reds visited fierce rivals that were to be a pre-season showdown between the two sports giants, but United’s fans were asked to stay away from what would become the most famous game in English football due to the way their team was run. to their owners, Glazer family.
United fan Aidan Walsh, who has more than 185,000 followers on @AidanWalshMUFC, is urging fans to avoid Old Trafford later this month in a bid to send a message to his American owners.
Will Manchester United fans protest against Liverpool game?
The message that reads “#MUNLIV Aug 22 #EmptyOlfTrafford” appears to be the latest attempt by United fans to pressure their own family, the Glazers, who have been bitterly despised by the United fan base, to make changes.
On Tuesday, the tweet containing the hashtag #EmptyOldTrafford garnered hundreds of responses and retweets, in addition to more than 11,000 likes. United’s owners, who have been in power since 2005, have long been the target of boycott campaigns by the team’s fans, but recent failures on the pitch have only fueled resentment.
While it’s unclear whether the campaign will result in noticeably fewer spectators at the 74,000-seat stadium, a completely empty Old-Trafford will undoubtedly draw media attention for a match that is currently the most watched game in all football.
