It is not often ( really never ) as a supporter of Manchester United in Canada do I have the pleasure of seeing my beloved reds here in my hometown of Toronto. Now I have heard people mutter things like " it's not the full squad" or " it's a meaningless friendly" etc, but that is something I can not bring myself to even consider. Having only made one trip across the pond to worship at Old Trafford in my life ( taking in two games, as well as a stadium tour and trip to Carrington ) this was truely a great night! How can anyone who knows anything about football say that seeing the likes of Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Edwin Van Der Sar, Wes Brown, Darren Fletcher and not to mention Sir Alex Ferguson to name but a few, consider it so unimportant and shrug it off....answer they are not true supporters.
As for myself the night was great, drinks, songs, laughs, a fantastic bit of skill and great finish by Berbatov, and my beloved reds romping to an entertaining 3-1 victory over Celtic! Now ( as if I wasn't already ) I am counting down the days till the kick off of the new season!
Cheers
