The English fans of Manchester United once again showed
just how much the Malcolm Glazer’s takeover of the club
was an offense to them when a riot ensued outside Old
Trafford after word leaked out that Glazer’s sons (Joel,
Avi and Bryan) had secretly flown in to take their first
proper tour of the ground since becoming majority shareholders
in the club.
It is unclear how their whereabouts were leaked, but
trouble quickly ensued once word spread that the wildly
unpopular Glazer family were in town. The situation
got so bad that the brothers had to cut their visit
short and escape via the protection of police vans.
The Glazer brothers had also been in London earlier
in the day, meeting with the FA where they were sternly
advised not to tamper with one of the prize jewels in
the English game. Now, they really know what they are
in for. Just imagine when Malcolm finally turns up.
