Manchester United fans staged a small and peaceful protest outside of the club's training ground on Friday.
The fans gathered outside the club to protest against the owners.
There will be another protest at Old Trafford on Saturday.
Fans have a right to express their opinion and understand their disappointment with the club's seventh-place position, according to Ralf Rangnick.
They are guaranteed to fall short of last season's final tally of 74 points, as they have won only three of their past 12 matches.
The interim manager said that football is a game of passion and emotion.
I think our supporters are one of the best in England if they protest in a peaceful way and still support the team in the stadium. They have been disappointed.
Simon Stone reported that fans mingled with autograph hunters as they slowed down traffic to enter the training complex.
The club closed its normal access gates in an attempt to avoid a repeat of a year ago when supporters were able to meet the manager.
Journalists were diverted to a different route to get to the press conference.
There was a small and peaceful protest outside the training ground.
We respect the opinions of fans and are committed to strengthening our engagement with them.
