Commentator Jon Champion CUT OFF on American TV after speaking out against the Glazer family who own Manchester United... following mass protests at Old Trafford which resulted in postponement of Liverpool clash

Commentator Jon Champion was abruptly cut off on American network ESPN on Sunday whilst talking about the Glazer family who own Manchester United amidst the Red Devils' postponed match against Liverpool.

One of the biggest fixtures in English football didn't take place as planned on Sunday after thousands of United fans gathered at Old Trafford in protest against the American billionaires who own the club, in the wake of the failed launch of the European Super League.

And English broadcaster Champion, who still commentates for ITV at major tournaments, was in conversation with ex-USA international Taylor Twellman in the ESPN studio when he was cut off by the network whilst speaking out against the Glazers.
