Manchester
United’s Supporters’ Trust chief Duncan Drasdo has hit out at Arsenal majority
shareholder Stan Kroenke, following the American’s backing of the Glazer
family.
The
American business tycoon told United fans they should be grateful to the
Glazers rather than hate them.
However,
since taking over the club in 2005, the Glazer family are said to have saddled
debt of around $850 million (£530m) on United as well as significantly
increasing ticket prices at Old Trafford, and Drasdo has warned Arsenal fans
his praise of the Glazers should be ringing alarm bells.
"Backing
the Glazers may not be surprising, but considering the debt burden they imposed
on United and their lack of passion for the club, it is certainly
revealing," Drasdo told reporters.
"If
I was an Arsenal fan this would be ringing alarm bells.
