    What was the signal from the referee in all that supposed to indicate?

    It all seems to have gone pear shaped ... the supporter-owned club has been plunged into turmoil in recent months with a revolt among many members unhappy at the state of democracy at the club and the way it is being run.

    Let's hope we have a personality to do the same against Burnley and sing Champions to them as well at the end ;-)

    I just don't get FCUM, what happens if they have a run of promotions and end up in L2 or L1. Surely by then you have to do all the same commercial stuff to keep the club running as the rest of us, commercialism which they claim to despise. Will a bunch of FCUM fans get pissed off at that and form another new club? 

    Did none of them consider following a local non league club that existed already?

    Wasnt it less about the commerical stuff and more about how the Glaziers are ripping them off with saddling debt that they got formed?

    But a load of them still go to Man U and you can see Man U shirts in the crowds at FCUM games? Doesn't that defeat the point?

    What happens if Man U land a decent owner, and they get to a position they were in during the 90s when the fan base was (presumably) happy with the ownership. Would they all abandon FCU and go back to supporting Man Utd Prime?
