This is a question Protest!

Sit-ins. Walk-outs. Smashing up the headquarters of a major political party. Chaining yourself to the railings outside your local sweet shop because they changed Marathons to Snickers. How have you stuck it to The Man?

Manchester United fans (amongst which I count myself)...
Fed up with the club's billionaire owners and their ruthless corporate greed? Fancy some sort of gesture that would clearly demonstrate your anger and frustration at the fortunes of the pride of English football being solely reliant on the whims of the barely interested mega-rich? There are a couple of options:

1) You could break away, form your own club, call it FC United, take on the green & gold colours of the team's origins, run the the club as some sort of people's cooperative and re-enter the league at the 10th tier, otherwise known as the second division of the North West Counties league.

That, my friends, is a fucking protest.

2) You could wave a green and gold scarf about the place live on Sky TV while still attending matches using your season ticket, wearing an official 50 quid replica shirt (purchased from the Megastore), occasionally pausing to leaf through an official match program, before wandering off at half time to get a Buzby Burger and large Fergie Fries.

That, less so.

Or alternatively
pick a team at the bottom of the conference league that needs all the support it can get.

From Ug United's name
it sounds like they were actually formed from two or more other clubs in the Ug area.
