Manchester United supporters plan 'Ed Out' banner

Manchester United supporters are planning on flying a banner during Manchester United's game with Burnley at Turf Moor next month calling for the exit of executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward.

Man United fans have reportedly hired a plane to fly the banner reading "Ed Out - LUHG" (Love United, Hate Glazer) on Sept. 2 before their match against Burnley in protest of Woodward's leadership and of the club's owners the Glazer family.

Supporters had planned to have the banner flown over Old Trafford for Monday's match against Tottenham, according to the reports, but that idea was scrapped because of light restrictions for the 8 p.m. kickoff time in Manchester.

The reports come on the heels of United's embarrassing loss to Brighton and Hove Albion on Sunday and Woodward's failure to deliver a centre-back for Mourinho during the summer transfer window.

The start to United's season has been marred by complains from manager Jose Mourinho on missing out on defensive targets.

United missed out on summer targets Harry Maguire and Toby Alderweireld and saw their defence exposed in the loss to Brighton.

During David Moyes' time in charge at United, supporters famously commissioned a banner in March of 2014 that read: "Wrong One - Moyes Out."
