Manchester United fans are expressing strong disapproval towards the Glazer family for their absence of a representative at Sir Bobby Charlton’s funeral.
Despite being the American owners of the Old Trafford club, reports suggest that the Glazers opted to stay away, citing a desire to avoid becoming a distraction.
In response, Manchester United's protest group, The 1958, issued a statement expressing profound disappointment with the owners' stance.
The statement reads:

The statement also highlights the Glazers' conspicuous absence of public comments following the recent passing of Lady Cathy, Sir Alex Ferguson’s wife. This lack of engagement is seen by The 1958 as another instance of the owners being out of touch with the club’s values and traditions.
