A Manchester United fan that had travelled to Spain to watch Thursday evening’s Real Sociedad clash was not allowed to take an anti-Glazer flag into the stadium.
In a video posted to Twitter, security at the stadium were holding an anti-Glazer flag and not allowing the fan to carry it in, despite every other supporter’s banner being permitted in to the Reale Arena.
In the video, the fan asked the staff: “So I’m not allowed that flag in, but everyone else is allowed their flag in, why can’t I have mine?”

A different security member replied: “Because it says ‘anti-Glazers’ mate, they don’t want it in. They don’t want it in there.”
When the fan further questioned: “So I can’t take my flag in because it’s got ‘anti-Glazers’ on it?”
The security confirmed: “Yeah.”
The United fan then posted a further update detailing a conversation with the officials after he had finished filming, which can be found below.
