Think you're making some pretty sweeping statements there Mr C there were certainly a mixture of ages and yeah some of them were very young and those doing silly things were probably caught up in the moment but the people organising these protests are guys who've been going home and away for a very long time.
Again you choose to focus on the 1% of idiots not the 99% of people who acted sensibly on the day.
Again you want them to listen well for 15 years despite multiple attempts from fan groups and now 3 protests we haven't even got 1 of them to talk to the fans. When they took over Gill cut all ties with the fans groups and only recently did Woodward look to reinstate those lines of communication through the fans forum but no Glazer has ever attended one of them although Woodward has. Woodward had started to build a bit of trust with the fan groups but then they go and do the super league plan without consulting fans just shows you why fans had been cautious about believing what he's said. Most of this good will was built up by him trying to work with them to improve the matchday experience at old trafford through the "singing sections" and looking to force through law changes to allow the club to install rail seating etc.
The Glazers know they can ride it out they think this will die down again in a few days like the other protests have and if it does then everything will just go back to the way it is. If this time they keep up the pressure something might actually change and as a club we might have to suffer a bit of pain from that but I don't think things will change sadly.
For a lot of those involved this is one last attempt to get them out if it fails I imagine quite a lot of them will pack in football for good.
