Manchester United fans group The 1958 calls upon supporters to join them in a fresh protest against the Glazer family after Saturday's defeat to Everton.

A Manchester United fans group has outlined plans for a fresh protest against the club's owners the Glazer family.

Supporters arrived at Old Trafford en masse to protest following the European Super League debacle last year, with some managing to storm the pitch and force the postponement of a Premier League clash with Liverpool.

Man United have only won one of their last five Premier League games under Ralf Rangnick, and their top-four hopes took another hit with a 1-0 loss to Everton at the weekend.

The Red Devils now find themselves six points adrift of Tottenham Hotspur in seventh place, which has led to a supporters group called The 1958 urging fans to unite in protest against the club's heavily criticised owners ahead of Saturday's clash with Norwich City.

A statement shared on social media read: "Nothing will change until the head of the snake is removed. It's rotten and starts from the top down like any other business.

"The club is a mess so we need to act and raise awareness again. This isn't another Liverpool; we believe this was a one-off unique event. This is the start of constant, relentless, legal and peaceful protests and actions against our owners.

"We know the challenges ahead of us and we will not waver or detract from these goals. Bring your colours, banners, flags and flares. We need you; we need each other, we need everyone to put aside their differences. Some things are worth fighting for..."

The group has also called upon fans to boycott the first 17 minutes of Man United's meeting with Norwich to represent the 17 years of the Glazers' ownership.
