When Manchester United’s most famous fan manages to annoy one of Manchester United’s most famous players, it goes like this. Having become world-famous for having taken on the challenge a year and a half ago of no longer cutting his hair until his favorite club wins 5 games in a row, Frank Ilett will still have to wait following the draw conceded against West Ham yesterday.
His livestream of the meeting brought together more than 150,000 people on his social networks, but probably not Wayne Rooney, obviously not very sensitive to his humor. The British legend didn’t spare the 29-year-old supporter, saying in the podcast No Tippy Tappy Football : “I would send it to the other side of the country. It drives me crazy. We’re talking about Michael Carrick and Man United trying to win their fifth game in a row, and everyone’s talking about that guy getting a haircut. I bet he will be devastated if Man United win because he will become insignificant.”
