Lilly Rae Doyle may be just three years old, but she is probably Manchester United’s biggest fan!

So much so that she hates the colour blue – the colour worn by their derby rivals Manchester City.

And when she was asked to try on her new school uniform, which is blue, she threw a huge tantrum and sobbed uncontrollably while complaining.

“I don’t like it because it’s blue!” she bawled as her mother tried to convince her that she had to wear the school uniform.

Manchester United step in to rectify the matter

The video even reached Manchester United who were bowled over by the girl’s loyalty to the Red Devils and decided to do something about it.

They promised to send her their third kit, which is blue, and told her that she would still be a Red even though she wears blue. They also plan to call her to Old Trafford for a game.

Well done, United!

RE: previous RT. Lilly, you can still wear blue & be a Red! We'll send you our third kit & we'd love to invite you to a game. See you soon!
