Glazers are ‘holding Manchester United and its fans hostage’, blasts MUST statement as they slam takeover ‘CHARADE’ with protests planned for season opener against Wolves

The Manchester United Supporters Trust have accused the Glazer family of holding the club hostage and challenged the owners to sell up or end the ‘charade’ of a takeover.

United kick off the season against Wolves at Old Trafford on Monday night with fresh protests planned over the Glazers’ refusal to accept offers in excess of £5billion from Sheik Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani of Qatar and British tycoon Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

The fans group issued a statement on Sunday warning that fans are ready to vent their frustration over the lack of progress since a strategic review was launched in November.
