Manc fans want it taken down in the wake of Manchester United's increasingly woeful season under David Moyes.
United stumbled to their sixth and perhaps most embarrassing home defeat of the season on Tuesday when they went down 3-0 to bitter rivals Manchester City.
The last time United lost so many home games in the league was in 1978.
Anger followed the defeat, with one fan having to be escorted out of the south stand after approaching the dugout to vent his anger against the United manager.
There were reports of fans aiming abuse at Moyes' predecessor Sir Alex Ferguson, who was sat in the directors' box.
Ferguson hand-picked Moyes from a strong field last summer.
For that reason, a banner has hung in the Stretford End that includes Moyes' face with the words 'The Chosen One' written alongside it.
Some fans have called for the group that made the banner - Stretford End Flags (SEF) - to remove it following the 3-0 defeat to Liverpool almost two weeks ago.
Stewards also gathered around the banner at full-time to prevent it from being seized.
