There’s a possibility that Manchester United fans are already sick of Jose Mourinho.
Sitting eight points off the top of the Premier League table, the Red Devils have suffered big defeats to Chelsea and Watford as well as weak draws at home to Burnley and Stoke City.In response, Twitter account Get Mourinho Out has caught the eye with a series of ‘planned protests’ to inspire the Portuguese coach’s sacking.
We are looking to organise for a plane to fly a #MourinhoOut banner over Old Trafford. Any donations would be massively appreciated. Thanks.

However, whether this is indicative of the wider mood of supporters is very suspect, in spite of the account’s growing follower base.
Past social media campaigns on this nature have often turned out to be a simple parody or joke, with some even acting as a facade for a backfiring advertising campaign.
In any case, there has been a strong rebuttal to any support for Mourinho’s dismissal, showing a possible split amongst the Old Trafford faithful.
