Tis the season to be jolly.
But only sideways and backwards jolliness is allowed at Old Trafford.
Trying to be as festive as possible, Manchester United’s official Twitter account wished their supporters a merry Christmas but the vast majority of the responses were a call for the club to give Louis van Gaal the sack.
Merry Christmas! #mufc pic.twitter.com/KMNWi7F4Fi
