Old Trafford was a restless place to be on Sunday, what with the protest chants against both arms of Manchester United's ownership structure and the frustration with what was being served up on the pitch.
The first half was memorable for the anti-Glazers chants sandwiched either side of a protest against Sir Jim Ratcliffe's decision to hike unsold tickets to £66. With a bigger protest planned for next weekend, the mood could be mutinous once again.
But it isn't just the absent businessmen who are causing consternation in the stands. The quality of the football is an ongoing issue as well, and it's clear that frustration at a dismal season is bubbling to the surface.

There were sighs when Diogo Dalot picked up possession on the left and shunned a promising attacking position by turning back to his own defenders. There were cheers when Rasmus Hojlund's number went up, and he departed for Chido Obi. And there were howls on anger when Andre Onana began to take an age over his kicks once United had drawn level.
About 15 minutes were left when Onana and Victor Lindelof took an age to decide on an approach to one kick, while Onana then waved everyone away to take the next couple. Again in extra-time he slowed play down with the ball at his feet before getting the hurry up from supporters.
Amorim was even quizzed on the approach after the game, defending Onana and insisting he was deliberately slowing the game down.
“It is also frustration for Andre, I think he’s trying to read the team," he said. “Sometimes you can feel that our team was so tired. We played the last game with less one player the second half. And I feel this game [he] is using that time for us to rest a little bit, to go for the second ball.
“Sometimes we push the team forward, then you feel it that the players need a little bit moment, so I think he wants to help the team, and not the opposite.”
There does seem to be a growing frustration with Onana from United supporters, although amid the disappointment at his distribution on Sunday, he did make some very good saves. A key reason for his £47million arrival was his ability with the ball at his feet, and that has been season often enough, however.
But part of that frustration is that since Amorim switched to his favoured wing-back system, United's football has generally been slow, stodgy, and too predictable. It is noticeable when Alejandro Garnacho is on the pitch because he is one of the few players injecting pace into the play.
Amorim isn't being helped by having defensive players in the wing-back positions, but his team are finding it difficult to progress the ball and they aren't playing with anywhere near enough speed, which is denying service to forward players, who eventually receive the ball in areas they don't want or in congested parts of the pitch.
So when the ball is back with Onana, and there is a chance to play quickly, that frustration bubbling under the surface will explode again when the game is slowed down.
That is becoming an issue for Onana, who must be losing confidence at the moment, but it could become a wider issue as well. The goalkeeper is in the spotlight, but the whole team needs to play a little quicker.
