Man Utd fan and campaigner Ian Stirling dies at 57 with club to pay tribute

Stirling was the independent supporter liaison officer with the Manchester United Supporters Trust, a role he took up in 2003.

He was also a regular on TV as a representative of Reds fans and led campaigns against the club's unpopular Glazer family owners. United will pay respect to Stirling by wearing black armbands against Southampton at Old Trafford today and released a statement following his passing. It read: "Everyone at Manchester United is profoundly saddened by the loss of our longstanding friend and fan representative Ian Stirling, who has died at the age of 57.

"Over many years, Ian played a vital role in dialogue between fans and the club and as a fearless champion on fan issues.
