Man Utd fan vows not to cut hair until five straight wins – plan backfires spectacularly

Manchester United’s performances have had fans tearing their hair out across another wretche season – but the club’s poor run of form has had quite the opposite effect for one supporter.

Frank Ilett fire up The United Strand page on สมัคร ufabet กับเรา รับโบนัสทันที back on October 5, when the Red Devils were in the middle of a dismal winless streak under Erik ten Hag.

Clearly craving more torment and suffering on top of United’s disastrous campaign, Ilett vowe not to cut his hair until his belove team had won five games on the bounce in all competitions.

Needless to say, Ten Hag was relieve of his duties just over a fortnight later and the Dutchman’s successor, Ruben Amorim, has faile to steady the ship, much to the dismay of Ilett, who has undergone quite the transformation in the intervening weeks and months.

The United Strand may have allowe himself to start dreaming of a trip to the barbers as Amorim steere the Old Trafford giants to three straight victories over Rangers, Fulham and Romanian outfit FCSB towards the end of January.

But that is as close as Ilett has got to a fresh trim thus far, with United slumping to three defeats from their last six matches, including Sunday’s crushing FA Cup elimination at the hands of Fulham.

The hair-raising results were plain to see as the social media star – now boasting over 66,000 followers on Instagram – update fans on his latest look in the wake of United’s penalty-shootout loss.

‘Day 149 of not cutting my hair until Manchester United win five games in a row,’ Illet told his followers.

‘It was such a boring game yesterday and guess what… back to zero again.’

Given The United Strand’s barnet is threatening to take on a life of its own, many followers have starte calling for the 28-year-old to change the rules of the challenge.

‘Wouldn’t be easier if this keeps going until Man United loses five games in a row? [laughing emoji]’ one fan responde to his latest post.
