KCA University has sparked online amusement after a social media post circulated claiming the institution had advised students to stop supporting Manchester United to protect their mental health.
The humorous post, shared by Nairobi Gossip Club on Instagram, features an image of the university’s entrance alongside a young boy wearing a red Manchester United jersey.
According to the caption, the purported memo advised students to stop supporting the English Premier League club and wearing its jerseys in the interest of their happiness and mental well-being.
The post has attracted reactions from football fans, particularly Manchester United supporters who have endured their fair share of disappointing results in recent seasons.
However, the publication described the memo as unofficial, and there was no confirmation in the material provided that KCA University had issued the advisory.
Viral Post Takes Aim at Manchester United Fans
The post uses humor to tap into the frustrations associated with supporting one of England’s most recognizable football clubs.
Manchester United has a substantial following in Kenya, where Premier League football attracts passionate discussions among fans who regularly debate team performances, managerial decisions and players.
For supporters, following the club can be an emotional experience, with victories bringing excitement and poor performances triggering disappointment and online banter.

The joke about abandoning the club for the sake of mental health plays on this familiar relationship between football loyalty and the emotional roller coaster of following a team.
The image of a young supporter in a red jersey adds to the humor, presenting a visual contrast to the suggestion that fans should reconsider their allegiance.
Social Media Users Turn Football Frustration Into Comedy
Football-related jokes frequently circulate online, especially when popular clubs struggle to meet supporters’ expectations.
Manchester United has often been at the center of such banter, with rival fans using disappointing results and inconsistent performances as material for memes.
For some supporters, the jokes are part of the wider football culture, where rivalries extend beyond the pitch into conversations on social media.
The purported KCA memo follows that familiar pattern, using the language of an institutional advisory to make a joke about the emotional demands of supporting a football team.
However, the viral post should not be confused with an official university directive.
Was the Memo Officially Issued by KCA?
Despite the post’s wording, the available screenshot does not establish that KCA University issued an official memo targeting Manchester United supporters.

The university’s official website publishes institutional notices and announcements, but the circulating image alone is insufficient to verify its authenticity.
KCA University has not been confirmed as the source of the purported advisory based on the available information.
The institution would need to clarify whether it created or authorized the memo before it could be presented as an official university communication.
Until then, the post is best understood as a humorous social media claim rather than an established university policy.
For Manchester United fans, the message remains another example of how football rivalries can turn a team’s struggles into internet comedy.
