Manchester United fans protest against Glazers’ ownership during mass sit-in
Thousands of Manchester United fans stayed behind to protest against the Glazers’ ownership after the comeback win against Nottingham Forest. It has been 18 years since the Americans’ controversial leveraged takeover of the club and nine months since they announced a strategic review. The sale of United was one option being considered but the interminable potential takeover process rumbles on, despite offers from Sheikh Jassim and Sir Jim Ratcliffe. The 1958 supporters’ group have led calls for the Glazers to sell up and organised an hour-long sit-in after the 3-2 win against Forest on Saturday. “Stay in your seats and protest,” read their tweet before kick-off. “History, Dignity, Integrity. They stole it all. For you. For us. For each other.” Thousands did just that, with banners held aloft and chants filling the air long after the full-time whistle. Asked about the fans’ protest, United manager Erik ten Hag said: “They are entitled to have that opinion. We got big support from them, away from home and at Old Trafford, and we have to keep strengthening that Erik ten Hag “But you see also between the fans and the team there’s a very strong bond. “I think throughout my time here it even got stronger and stronger. “Today I think, even again, we make it stronger because such a magnificent comeback will help and support that. “We got big support from them, away from home and at Old Trafford, and we have to keep strengthening that. “It’s very good to see that fight and the spirit between us.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Erik ten Hag hails United’s spirit as they hit back to win after ‘horror start’ Wolves head coach Gary O’Neil unhappy with ‘large spells’ during win at Everton He was a colossus – Roy Hodgson impressed by Joachim Andersen’s display

Millwall sign Hibernian striker Kevin Nisbet for ‘seven-figure fee’
Scotland striker Kevin Nisbet has left Hibernian for Millwall after the two clubs agreed “a significant seven-figure fee”, the cinch Scottish Premiership outfit have announced. The deal for the 26-year-old, whose exact price tag remains undisclosed, includes both add-ons and a sell-on arrangement. A statement on Hibs’ official website read: “We can confirm that Kevin Nisbet has joined English Championship side Millwall for a significant seven-figure fee. “The full terms of the 26-year-old’s departure will remain undisclosed, however, it does include sizeable add-ons and a sell-on fee.” Millwall had a bid, understood to be in the region of £2million, accepted for Nisbet in January, but the player ultimately opted to stay in Scotland. Hibs’ chief executive Ben Kensell said: “After deciding to stay in January, Kevin informed us that he wanted to leave the football club this summer, which we understood. “Following those discussions, we had to ensure we got the best possible deal for him. We’re happy with the fee we received, and we wish him all the best for the future with Millwall.” Nisbet, who joined Hibs from Dunfermline in July 2020, scored 12 goals in 19 league appearances last season after recovering from a knee injury which sidelined him for 10 months. Manager Lee Johnson said: “We’re disappointed to lose Nizzy after he did so well for us on his return but understand that he wanted to go on a new adventure down south. “Although he will be missed, this presents a new opportunity for someone else to step into that role. We thank him for his contribution and wish him all the best in England.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live
