The problems at Manchester United began under Sir Jim Ratcliffe's ownership.

The 1958 Manchester United Supporters' Trust has announced a new protest march ahead of the club's Premier League clash with Arsenal on March 9th.

The group, which has been a vocal critic of the Glazer family's ownership of the club, has called on fans to join them in a demonstration against the American owners. The protest is set to take place outside Old Trafford before the match.

In a statement, a spokesperson for the 1958 said, "We are angry, the fans are angry, and this situation has been building for a long time." The group has cited a number of grievances, including the Glazers' alleged lack of investment in the club, the club's recent on-field struggles, and the increasing cost of matchday tickets.

The Glazer family has faced increasing scrutiny from Manchester United fans in recent years. Many supporters believe that the American owners have prioritized profits over success on the pitch, and have called for them to sell the club.

The protests come at a time when Manchester United are struggling both on and off the pitch. The team has failed to win a Premier League title since 2013, and the club's finances have been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic.

What do the fans want?

The 1958 group is calling for a number of changes at Manchester United. These include:

The impact of the protests

The protests by Manchester United fans have the potential to disrupt the club's operations and put pressure on the Glazer family to sell. However, it remains to be seen whether the protests will be successful in forcing the owners out.
