This will be Pre-season tour. Recently United have been touring the South East Asia selling their brand name and pleasing their millions of fans there. In 2003 they bring this sales pitch over to the United States. The only untouched market place where they plan to dominate. Three games are scheduled with a few possible scrimage matches with local college/A league teams. Games set for NYC, Boston and LA. stay tuned as more news becomes available.

United isn't playing Barca, all 4 teams have 2 matches, I think we're not playing barca because Ajax have close connections with them and don't want to embarres Barca when they get beat by us ;)

not sure if I'm going, maybe the Ajax game, if I can get off work that is

I was hoping no one would post it. Every kunt and his mother is going to be trying to get to that game, especially with the expected Duff signing and Keane returning.
Im not going back until next week and itll probably be sold out by then :(

Just got a reply from MUTV about the Shelbourne game and they said "MUTV will not be showing the game live but will be showing it on Sunday at 6pm with analysis from Frank Stapleton."
