Manwan: Manchester United fan group cancels protest plans against Ratcliff after introducing Sesco

August 12th According to "Mann Evening", after the club introduced Sesco, Manchester United fan group canceled the protest plan against Ratcliff in 1958.

Manchester United fan group "1958" announced that they will cancel protests against Sir Ratcliff and Ineos before the match against Arsenal this weekend. The fan group has organized protests against the Glazer family several times in recent years and has planned to hold its first protest against Ratcliff in the first game of the new season. The BPK billionaire has been closely watched since joining the club and buying a minority stake in the Red Devils.

Ratcliff also implemented a series of controversial cost-cutting measures, including massive layoffs and reallocating positions for long-term season ticket holders. However, “1958” confirmed in a statement first reported by the PA news agency that protests had been postponed due to differences in opinions from internal members.

"For a diverse and passionate fan group like us, it is not always easy to find the right balance. We must consider the momentum, timing, fan wishes and the broader consequences of the protests, while assessing the impact of current and future decisions on us as fans."

"Given the current sentiment of the fan group, especially the recent findings, it is clear that there is no unified view on the direction of the club under Ratcliffe. This disagreement is true and we believe that taking risks to create any ‘Red Devils’ situation is irresponsible.”

"1958" also confirmed that in a survey of nearly 26,000 members, 63% believed that Ratcliffe should be held accountable by protest. However, 68% also believe that Ratcliff and Inex should be given more time to show their influence.
