Justice for The United Strand! Man Utd looking into Old Trafford attack on supporter growing out hair until team wins five games in a row

Ilett, who has dubbed himself 'The United Strand', began this challenge in October 2024 (when Amorim joined the club), and now he has a full-on afro at a time when Amorim's team have struggled greatly. He now has hundreds of thousands of followers on social media, but one fan took umbrage with his stunt on Sunday. 

On the day of United's win over Chelsea, a supporter was seen grabbing Ilett's hair, while trying to push him over in the Old Trafford concourse. He was verbally abused, and now theDaily Mail states that if the culprit is found, they will face 'strong sanctions'. 

The report adds that United are aware of the video, which has been widely circulated online. Incidentally, the last time United won five games in a row was under Amorim's predecessor, Erik Ten Hag, back in February 2024.

United need to beat Brentford, Sunderland, Liverpool, and Brighton in their next four Premier League games to make it five wins in a row. Considering they have won just two games this season, that stretch seems unlikely.
