Manchester United fans are incredibly ugly, according to this survey of Premier League team fans

Not a pretty sight...

They must have asked lots of Liverpool supporters.

Manchester United teams have been renowned for playing the beautiful game in the right way… apart from the David Moyes era but we’ll just skip right past that one.

Over the last two decades, the Old Trafford faithful have been treated to the sight of some breath-taking goals, world class players and all out attacking football.

It seems though that Man United’s aesthetic beauty on the pitch isn’t reciprocated in the stands, according to this survey by Match which has ranked the 2015/16 Premier League clubs in order of how attractive their fans are.

Manchester United v Southampton - Premier League

An away day visit to the Vitality Stadium might be in order if you’re single because the league newbies Bournemouth have the best looking fans according to the 1,028 people that were surveyed.

Southampton were a close second while Norwich and Manchester City supporters also secured spots in the sexy Champions League, so to speak.

Here’s the league in full and I wonder if Louis Van Gaal might be tempted to change the beauty philosophy at Old Trafford.

On another note, it’s nice to see that there’s a certain degree of symmetry with Chelsea’s form here and in the actual Premier League also.

The Premier League of attraction was as follows:

1. AFC Bournemouth
2. Southampton
3. Norwich City
4. Manchester City
5. Swansea City
6. Newcastle United
7. Aston Villa
8. Leicester City
9. Arsenal
10. Everton
11. Watford
12. West Ham United
13. Liverpool
14. West Bromwich Albion
15. Crystal Palace
16. Tottenham Hotspur
17. Stoke City
18. Sunderland
19. Manchester United
20. Chelsea
