ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE

A large number of Turkish fans Shown in the match against Man United

Uefa Champions League

Man United insipid start to the 2023/24 season continued as they fell at the hands of Turkish side Galatasaray on Tuesday evening.

While the result was enough to irk the home support, the fact that so many away fans were spotted in the home sections has left the fanbase outraged with the club.

Erik ten Hag will face the wrath of questions being thrown in his direction as the Dutchman continues to lead the Greater Manchester side to their worst-ever start to a campaign since 1989, having lost six of their opening 10 outings since the new campaign got underway.

Their latest defeat came against the reigning Süper Lig champions,

Who secured their first-ever win on English soil in their storied history.

Man United 20-year-old marksman Rasmus Højlund continued his prolific nature in Europe as he struck a brace,

But his goals were drowned out by goals from Wilfried Zaha,

Kerem Akturkoglu and Mauco Icardi as the Argentine’s blushes were spared following his penalty miss just minutes prior.

As Champions League action returned to the Old Trafford turf,

Things went from bad to worse as Casemiro shown his marching orders following a wayward pass from Andre Onana,

A player the club bought for his ball-playing capability.

Aside from the result, however, those home fans in attendance were equally concerned

About how so many Galatasaray supporters found in the home sections of the failing stadium.

Those of a Red Devils persuasion quickly headed for the exit doors as they looked to pull the curtains on a night to forget in Europe.

The Galatasaray fans were, however, in fine voice following their historic win against one of Europe’s most renowned powerhouses

But the sharp-eyed among the few remaining United fans worked out that they dotted everywhere around the stadium.

X user @Jack_H_20 posted a video onto social media,

Panning to several sections of the ground that were housing jubilant Galatasaray supporters.

Thousands of United fans – like many other clubs – search high and low week-in week-out for tickets in the hope to see their beloved team in the flesh,

Though it seems their backwards way of sorting tickets has prevented that from happening.

A fan has suggested on X that he gifted his ticket to the Manchester United Foundation,

Who then sold it to a fan of the Turkish giants – and this has left fans furious.
