Troubles for Manchester United boss David Moyes are reportedly intensifying as the club's supporters are planning to display the message 'Wrong One - Moyes Out' during United's clas against Aston Villa this weekend.

United supporters are reportedly arranging a plane to carry a flypast over Old Trafford calling for him to be sacked as a response to the 'Chosen One' banner that has hung from the Stretford End since former United boss Sir Alex Ferguson appointed Moyes as manager.

According to The Guardian, United supporters on the Red Issue website have gotten together to raise 1,000 pounds for the flypast and have insisted that they are going ahead with the protest, approximately five to 10 minutes before kick-off.

The group also released a statement which said that it is not a reaction because the supporters are not getting their own way in terms of winning games.

The supporters also said that Moyes calling their major rivals 'favourites', when they play them at Old Trafford, is not 'acceptable', and is a betrayal of the players, club's ethos and fans' support adding that they want a manger who 'understands and embraces' United's attacking traditions.

United fans are disappointed with the club's performance this season and United's recent 3-0 defeat to Manchester City at home, which was the 10 th time the club has lost in the Premier League this season, finished with isolated shouts for Moyes to go, the report added.
