Manchester United Nickname: The Red Devils Famous fans: Usain Bolt, Mick Hucknall, Justin Timberlake It is perhaps the biggest cliché in the book of awfully big football clichés that Manchester United supporters don’t come from Manchester. Such fans are known as plastics and only “follow” Manchester United because they’re successful. But of course there are a few Manchester United supporters in Manchester, it’s just they’ve been elbowed out of the way by wealthy Londoners (plastics who former club captain Roy Keane labeled “The prawn sandwich brigade”). If you don’t support United, you vehemently despise them, which is why rival supporters basked so glowingly in the disaster of last season.
