From October 5, 2024, Frank Ilett ā a die-hard Manchester United fan ā decided to embark on a challenge as bizarre as it is symbolic: not to cut his hair until the Red Devils win at least five consecutive matches. A vow simple in its rules, but extremely complicated in practice.
Because as the months go by, Frankās hair grows, but Unitedās successes continue to be too inconsistent. A team capable of beating Chelsea, only to then crash out disastrously in the Carabao Cup against Grimsby. A performance like a āticking time bomb,ā which has made the fanās feat even more difficult than expected.
Frankās journey, shared on social media with self-irony, has shown a radical transformation: from shaved, in just a few months he found himself with increasingly thick hair, a symbol of hope but also of frustration.
With the arrival of RĆŗben Amorim on Unitedās bench, many ā himself included ā expected a turning point. But the winning streak still hasnāt come, and soon the fan will blow out the first candle of this unusual āmarathon.ā
What seemed like a lighthearted challenge, however, took an unpleasant turn. The video showing Frank attacked at Old Trafford has gone viral, the victim of an inexplicable and unjustifiable act.
A prank or an act of madness? Itās hard to find a reasonable explanation. His story remains the perfect portrait of what it means to live football passion between irony and suffering, but also a warning: fandom should unite and never turn into violence.
