Frustrating end to United’s game in Lyon. Fans warned of an hour’s holdback, but with full access to facilities. French police have locked off the toilets and concourse are now pepper spraying behind riot shields. Thanks for the hospitality 🇫🇷

United fans pepper sprayed at full time trying to use the toilet in Lyon. Bussed into stadium from a collection point miles away, metro down and an hour's holdback after the game. UEFA/ French Police once again treating fans terribly.

#MUFC fans slam French riot police after being “tear gassed” after being denied access to toilets at Lyon game. FSE brand actions as “completely unacceptable”. Comes on top of “draconian” logistics. “Another example of treating football fans like cattle” telegraph.co.uk/football/2025/…

I will be speaking to #MUFC supporters’ groups and raising their concerns with the French authorities. I have experienced similar myself when attending games there. Completely unacceptable.

Just to clear up any confusion over tonight's North Stand 'tifo', its an idea dreamt up by Club directors, designed by the Club's branding team and 'approved' internally. TRA - The Red Army (MUFC) had absolutely nothing to do with it. On a more positive note, music will be off so let's make

The poor treatment of one set of football supporters never justifies reciprocal poor treatment of others, but Olympique Lyonnais really ought to consider what they and the local authorities subjected #MUFC fans to in France before making such shameless complaints.

Well.. United through to the Europa League final. History may remember this game a bit differently because it was far from comfortable for 70 minutes but this side is still the only unbeaten side left in Europe and go back to Bilbao in two weeks to play spurs. Enjoy it.

Crystal Palace's support at Wembley, led by the Holmesdale Fanatics, has been absolutely superb, just like in 2016 against United. A lesson in active, independent fan culture - and in an English environment so hostile to it. Huge admiration. Ultras. 👏
