Manchester United supporters are spitting with rage after seeing Avram Glazer snapped alongside a Liverpool jersey.
Hostilities towards the American family from United fans are well documented, with protests reaching boiling point last summer. Thousands of Red Devils marched on Old Trafford ahead of a game with Liverpool due to a lack of investment in the summer transfer window.
That is not the first time animosity has heightened, with another fixture, also against Liverpool, being forcibly postponed after fans stormed the stadium to condemn the controversial European Super League proposals. The tension stems back to when the Glazers first bought Man United in 2005 using leveraged funds.

Overnight, the Red Devils were saddled with £550million worth of debt and the takeover was criticised. A fall from grace in English football - with United not winning the Premier League since 2013 - has only intensified the resentment.
Fast forward to the present and a potential sale is on the cards. British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Qatari prince Sheikh Jassim are the front-runners to acquire the keys to Old Trafford, with the Glazers releasing a statement in November flirting with an exit.
But any departure will not be done without one more act to irk United fans. On Thursday, the red half of Manchester were furious as Avram Glazer was snapped with a Liverpool supporter.
Prominent United YouTuber Mark Golbridge hit out at the picture once the image went viral. He commented: “Only a Glazer would have the lack of awareness to not realise or care (that) they're taking a selfie with a Liverpool fan.”
Another simply demanded the Glazers to “get out of our club”, a sentiment shared by millions of Red Devils. While Man United qualified for the Champions League in Liverpool’s place, it is Reds supporters who boast the last laugh after the Americans’ latest cock-up.
