Avram Glazer revealed his “love” for Manchester United to a fan during the women team’s successful FA Cup victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.<\/p>\n

United cruised to an emphatic 4-0 win to secure the club’s first major trophy<\/a> since the formation of the women’s team in 2018. Goals from Ella Toone, Rachel Williams and a brace from Lucia Garcia put Spurs to the sword as the Red Devils ran riot at Wembley.<\/p>\n

The American owner was in attendance in the capital while his co-owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, was present at Old Trafford for United men’s fixture against Arsenal.<\/p>\n

Glazer was sat in the Royal Box at Wembley – a second trip for the 63-year-old businessman in the space of a month, having attended the semi-final against Coventry City in April. He was also present for both cup finals last season (FA Cup and Carabao Cup). His last trip to Old Trafford was in August 2022 for the opening day defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion.<\/p>\n

During the match, the M<\/em>anchester Evening News\u00a0<\/em><\/a>contends Glazer spoke to a fan, revealing he “wouldn’t have missed” the historic match.\u00a0“It\u2019s a big day and I\u2019m happy to be here. I wouldn\u2019t have missed it. I love United. I wouldn\u2019t want to miss this,” the American stated.<\/p>\n

United fans reading those words would be forgiven for any feelings of anger or disbelief they may be experiencing because this reporter certainly shares them.<\/p>\n

The idea that any member of the Glazer family could claim, with a straight face, to “love” United is an insult to the state of disrepair they have allowed the club to fall into, both on and off the pitch.<\/p>\n

Erik ten Hag’s side fell to a disappointing 0-1 defeat at the hands of Arsenal in front of Ratcliffe just hours after the women’s team had triumphed over Spurs. While the performance was better than the absolute capitulation against Crystal Palace earlier in the week, an improvement on abysmal is still poor.<\/p>\n

United’s inability to sustain meaningful and lasting success on the pitch is a symptom of their abject ownership, as much as it is an incompetent manager or underperforming players. A ‘fish rots from the head’ has never applied more pertinently than at Old Trafford over the past decade with Avram Glazer suspect number one in this decay.<\/p>\n

And, to add insult to injury, the stadium itself has even become a source of embarrassment for fans. Old Trafford is now Old\u00a0<\/em>Trafford after years of superficial investment by the Glazers, with the long-standing issue of a leaky roof<\/a> rearing its ugly head as United fell to defeat to a better run, better organised rival with a better designed stadium.<\/p>\n

An unusual amount of rainfall in a concentrated burst proved too much for the roof of the Sir Bobby Charlton Stadium and huge amounts of water began to cascade into the stadium, soaking fans and creating an image which was as embarrassing as it was dangerous<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It is not the first time this has happened, nor will it likely be the last, but The Peoples Person<\/em> is sure the view from the Royal Box at Wembley was much more enjoyable than the one from the Sir Bobby Charlton Stand at Old Trafford at full-time of each game. Hence Avram Glazer’s completely out-of-touch words.<\/p>\n
