Manchester United's woes seem to never end. The club which was considered as the cream of English football not too long ago with the most number of trophies and a large fanbase is arguably in its lowest phase at present. The Red Devils' supporters are clearly not happy with Manchester United's board of directors and the way they are doing their business. A majority of fans are blaming Vice President Ed Woodward for the club's poor performance in recent years. A delay in Bruno Fernandes' deal is creating chaos amongst fans and they want the VP fired as soon as possible.

Disturbing footage started circulating on Tuesday night which involved Ed Woodward's house being attacked with flares by Manchester United fans.

The video shows one man in a balaclava throwing flames inside Woodward's house. The footage is very alarming and it has been criticised by a majority of people on Twitter. Gary Lineker tweeted: "If this is genuine, then it’s absolutely disgusting. The man has young twins, FFS."
