BBC commentator Ian Dennis has blasted a section of Manchester United supporters as 'an absolute disgrace' for their chants towards Ed Woodward where they ask him to 'die'.
Executive vice-chairman Woodward has been the ire of many Red Devils fans as they continue to falter during his near seven-year tenure in the position.
On Wednesday night, their frustrations towards him and the Glazer family, who own the club, came to the fore once more as they slumped to an abject 2-0 defeat by Burnley in the Premier League.
During that match, some fans could be heard singing their recent song about Woodward and the Glazers.
'Build a bonfire, build a bonfire, put the Glazers on the top, put Ed Woodward in the middle and burn the f***ing lot.'
Dennis was commentating on the game for BBC Radio 5Live at Old Trafford and made his abhorrent feelings about the incident clear.
'Regardless of your opinion of Ed Woodward, you cannot ask for someone to die.
'If you want to be anti the board then sing 'sack the board', but individuals singing that about a human being is an absolute outrage.
'The chanting is an absolute disgrace.'
He then took to Twitter to express his distaste once more: 'Distasteful, disgusting and beyond the pale. No excuses despite anger/frustration they may feel towards the board. #mufc,' he wrote.
Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was also condemning of the unsavoury chants.
'For me it's important that we stick together,' he said post-match.
'Help the players, help the team and help the club to move forward. I think everyone knows when they have overstepped the line.'
