Just in case you missed it, United are playing Celtic in an exhibition in Seattle.
The game will be broadcast live on FSWD, 22 July, 11pm EDT, 8pm PDT.
This will be the 1st time to see a Beckham-less United, & some of the new names play. I don't think DjDj was included in the traveling group, but Howard & Bellion may be.
I believe United are contractually obligated to play the big names for at least one half.

Howard is joining up with the squad a bit later (in time for the Juve match for sure).
I'm assuming he's on his Honeymoon right now.

Watching the Fox Sports World TV broadcast right now in the U.S.
1. I can't believe this is the U.S. It's a packed house in Seattle.
2. I can't believe this is a Fox Sports World broadcast. Top shelf advertisements from Adidas and Pepsi seem so out of place on FSW. (Anyone else confuse that Adidas spot for a Real Madrid one. Zidane. Beckham. Raul.)
Kudos to the Man Utd marketing staff for setting up this tour. There's a fan base stateside to be won.
Here's to an exciting match!

Yeah, everything was looking top-notch, until the center ref walked out on the pitch. What in THE ************ is Kevin Terry doing working this match?

This is frustrating... no radio commentary, no FSW in comcast land.. Thank God I will be at Giants Stadium and in Philly to see Man U... Anyway, how is the atmosphere? Any chanting, standing of the crowd, etc? How is Keano playing out there so far?

Tell me about it. This game was sold in March. I work at the radio station that has the rights to the Seahawks, and they told me this was "the hottest ticket this year in Seattle." I.e., no freebie box seats.
Anyone have the lineups?
BTW: It's on the Chinese web site, stvod.com

Terry must've been in town for an A-league match

Typical American shite... A few random chants, and a helluva lot of those plastic horns.
[Wildlife documentarian]And if you listen closely, you'll hear the mating call of the young american sports fan. The low bleating through the extended plastic snout, intended to court success on the field and win the favor of their idols.[/Wildlife documentarian]

ManU are playing a full lineup....
Ruud, Giggs, Keane, Solskjaer, etc.
So are Celtic....
Allan Thompson just missed a penalty.
Keane on the takedown.
Kevin Terry didn't hesitate to point to
the spot.
Will keep updating as it appears soccernet
does not have play-by-play.

Rebound to Giggs from 20m,
2-nil to Scum.

My neighbors paid $50+ for nosebleed seats. Glad they're getting their money's worth.
Thanks for lineup info, bs.

Celtic are for shite.
It's too bad they didn't sell segregated seating...
no one is in voice.
Lots of manU posession. Celtic look lethargic.
