The Manchester United Muslim Supporters Club (MUMSC) has issued a formal statement calling for the resignation of club co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe. The group’s demand is a direct response to recent public remarks made by Ratcliffe, in which he expressed critical views on current immigration levels and suggested that the United Kingdom is "on the slide."

Ratcliffe, who acquired a minority stake in the club earlier this year, has faced backlash from various community groups following these comments. The MUMSC argues that such rhetoric is incompatible with the inclusive values of the football club and its diverse fanbase. While the supporters' group has been vocal in its opposition, there has been no official response from Manchester United’s leadership or Sir Jim Ratcliffe regarding the call for his departure. The situation highlights the ongoing tension between the personal political views of sports club owners and the expectations of their global supporter base, many of whom prioritize social inclusivity within the sport.
