"At San Siro, the Curva Sud held protests against RedBird and the management of AC Milan. However, they were not the only ones protesting this weekend. Around Milan, RedBird are not viewed positively. Since coming into the club, the Rossoneri have spiralled downwards with questionable decisions made fairly regularly. Even this year, where a return to the Champions League looked almost guaranteed, the late stages of the season have seen the toxicity return."
"It is a puzzling position for the ownership to be in, they are almost damned if they do, damned if they don't. Nevertheless, Milanisti are not the only fanbase with issues with RedBird. Milan not alone in protest. As Calciomercato.com reports, in France, Toulouse also hosted their own protests against RedBird."
"During their win against Lyon, a banner was shown questioning the future of their club amid reports that they could become a transitional club for the Diavolo. Their message was clear: "RedBird, one year later and still no response. What is your plan for TFC?" It is not the first protest that Toulouse have held against their American ownership and it probably will not be the last as they remain in the dark about the future of their club."
"Few answers have arrived, so it remains to be seen if anything will be said about their latest protest. What is clear, though, is that the two RedBird clubs are aligned and it is not an alignment that the ownership can afford to see."
Protests occurred at San Siro in the Curva Sud against RedBird and AC Milan management. RedBird is viewed negatively around Milan, with the club’s performance declining after the ownership took over and late-season toxicity returning even during a season that looked likely to reach the Champions League. The ownership faces criticism as fans feel trapped between poor outcomes and unanswered decisions. Toulouse also protested RedBird in France during a win against Lyon, displaying a banner that questioned the future of the club and suggested it could become a transitional team for AC Milan. Toulouse has held similar protests before, with few answers about its future, and the two clubs’ aligned fan unrest signals a risk for the ownership.
