Last updated : 17 February 2005 By editor

An IMUSA press release:

‘The Not For Sale Coalition is organising a march down Warwick Road to Old Trafford football ground on the 23rd of February before the home game against AC Milan as a demonstration of the opposition to the proposed takeover of Manchester United by Malcolm Glazer. IMUSA is asking all United fans to meet at 6.40pm next to Old Trafford cricket ground near the Metrolink station, ready to march to the ground at 7pm. Bring banners flags and colours.

‘IMUSA chair, Mark Longden said, “IMUSA are calling on all supporters to show their opposition to Glazer taking over our club. It’s time for Reds to show the board that the business is doomed if this or any individual takes over our club.

‘“The last march to the ground before the Arsenal game in October was a great success and really contributed to the excellent atmosphere inside the stadium. It’s a big night on the pitch, let’s make it a big night off it as well. Firing up the fans pre-match can only help the team.”’
