Manchester United fan group 'The 1958' staged a sit-in protest against the Glazer Family and the increase in ticket prices after Sunday's Manchester derby at Old Trafford.
Hundreds of fans remained seated as they believe the Glazers and Sir Jim Ratcliffe are pricing out long-term supporters with several changes to ticketing coming into play next season.
Season ticket prices will increase by about 5% for the third successive year next campaign as the club and there will be an introduction of a game categorisation model for non-season ticket holders.
In addition, United's 'senior' discount will now track the state pension age of 66, giving older fans 25% off. Some had previously received a 50% discount.
Fans behind the dugouts will also be relocated, allowing the club to convert those seats for hospitality and sell them at premium prices while the minimum usage requirement for season ticket holders increases from 15 to 16 of their 19 Premier League home games.
