ERIK ten Hag might just get it in the neck for this.
The Dutch manager oversaw his side win narrowly at home against Aston Villa 1-0 at Old Trafford.
However, at the final whistle the ex-Ajax tactician appeared to support a United fans' group's stance on the ownership of the Glazer family.
As Ten Hag marched down the tunnel, he picked up a green and gold scarf worn by the 1958 group who have opposed the Americans and waved it towards the fans.
Although, it is not known if he genuinely understood its meaning – the crowd cheered in the video clip that has been shared online.
The reaction on Twitter was mixed.

One fan wrote: "Erik is the first manager who directly show his support for #GlazerOut?
Another shared: "Leading the revolution!"
A third posted: "I'm not sure he knows that's a Glazers out scarf lol let's hope nothing gets started because of that."
While a fourth echoed that sentiment: "Let’s be honest he doesn’t have a clue why it’s green and gold."

With the victory saw United grab a stranglehold on a top four finish and Champions League qualification, as they secured the vital three points.
Bruno Fernandes' 39th minute strike was enough to see off the visitors.
But before the game United fans held a protest against the ownership of the Glazer family, with 1,000 supporters gathering in Manchester city centre before marching to Old Trafford.
And inside the Theatre of Dreams, the anti-Glazer chants continued in the stands as the fans sang their dissaproval.
The protests come after the Glazers mull over the offers of Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani and Sir Jim Ratcliffe's Ineos group to buy the club.

Jassim is said to want a 100 per cent ownership of the club, while Ratcliffe is believed to be proposing a 69 per cent or a 51 per cent stake.
According to reports, Ratcliffe's bid, in excess of £5billion, values the club a lot higher.
It has been suggested that Joel and Avram Glazer are keen to remain at the club, which is something supporters would propose.
