Yeah but on what side? This is a genuinely conflicting issue for a proper Tory culture-warrior
I though that flog the lot of them and being back national service would still be the massively dominant view. It wasn't as if they were actually going to do anything about club ownership

Yeah, but you can do that with "proper passion" and "responsible support".
Set up a task force to address legitimate concerns.

Jamie Carragher was fantastic, as was Gary Neville (who basically told the Glazers to fuck off right now). Roy Keane was good, Micah Richards was superb. And then there was Graeme Souness, who expressed his love for Abramovich and said good things are being done by Abu Dhabi, and was so anti the protests, I thought Norman Tebbitt had possessed his body. And thew feckless Sky host, who coukdn't stop talking about the "violence". And Sky News made that their talking point as well.
So for Carragher and Richards in particular standing up for the Man Utd fans -- while being in the pay of Sky -- was significant.
Apparently Michael Owen and Owen Hargreaves, punditting on another feed, were pro-fans as well.

the high point was Souness saying that the whole thing is the natural conclusion to the founding of the Premier League and decision to screw the rest of the pyramid back in 1992.

Souness acting like he didn't plant that flag in the pitch that time. Honestly.
The Sky presenter seemed to think that encroaching on OUR pitch at OUR ground is worse than the theft and stripping of a football club and the attempted destruction of the football league pyramid. Get a grip.
