In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.

Heh. There are some wind-up bits in there but some truthful ones too.
Up to you to work out which is which

They have a good record against British teams though:
2005 MLS All Stars 4–1 Fulham
2006 MLS All Stars 1–0 Chelsea
2007 MLS All Stars 2–0 Celtic
2008 MLS All Stars 3–2 West Ham United
2009 MLS All Stars 1–1* Everton
If it was a serious game, and we had all our players, then I've no doubt we would beat any US team nine times out of 10. But we're not taking it as seriously as these guys are. They're all playing to stick one up the "Eurosnobs" and maybe impress a few scouts from Europe as well.
I'm mostly decided on getting to my two hour intro tutorial to my Politics in Greater China unit late and just watching it at home.
Crikey. That is a good record.
Bound to be heavily influenced by the games taking place in the middle of their season, while the English teams are just off the beach, mind you.
I still think we'll win.
Oh right my internet at home is capped... now to choose which uni computer lab to watch the game in
hell with this time zone crap, is the match on tonight? If it is, what time?
1 30 am for you if you're in Wales. Be a man and watch it.
Experience what it's like for us Aussie fans.

Do we have to drink crap beer and shag our sisters too?
See now you're thinking of Tasmania which as we all know isn't even really a part of Australia.
Donovan and Buddle played 90 minutes last night losing 4-1 to the USL side Puerto Rico Islanders at home. They are supposed to start tonight.
ha, can guarantee you that I'll watch it. Watched all the one that's been so far. Regret watching the last one though
WTF?
The Galaxy are the top MLS club in the standings and they lose to a second rate USL side. Comical.
And wtf is CONCACAF scheduling CL matches right before the MLS All-Star game?
This whole region is ridiculous.
That said, the All-Star game will see all players selected play at some point. If those two, plus Omar Gonzalez, played a full match last night, they should be sluggish tonight. There's also the potential for injury with two games in the span of 24 hours.
Addendum #1: Galaxy doesn't show much interest - Los Angeles Times
anyone know the squad or line-up for the all star MLS team?

I kept forgetting that there was a 3rd person who played last night, too early in the morning I guess. They'll be slow tonight, but by god they were slow last night as well. Just totally off the pace.
B. Easily.

Same way Real can get punished by a division 2 team... It comes down to being naive... Funny that MLS has such a tough time in their Champions League although they're meant to be the second biggest country in that region and one of the countries with a proper league.
outside of the fancy new stadiums the USL teams are probably on par with most of the MLS teams. We have a lot of mediocre players in this region of the world
My friend who is a manager where the MLS team is staying (she is the one who gave me the pass to the MLS Pre-party thing last night) saying there is a rumour that Rooney may be in town.
Not sure why I am posting it except maybe if anyone going to the game - can keep a look out for the thug

I bet he can't wait to start training again. Hell, it was a short Worlds for England.
p.s. and for the rest of United players there
can anyone pm a working stream? thanks in advance
aww Evra went to visit Park in SK
edit:
also, apparently the First XI I wrote is not the actual first XI...whodyathunkit
Doubt Buddle, Gonzalez and Donovan will not start then.
Probably went there cuz it's about as far from France as you can get.
Like I said rumour but, it's not like he couldn't fly to Houston from Barbados to meet up with the guys before heading over to Carrington ... this week.
Not sure if I can watch this, bleeding hell 1.30am on a work night
If it was a real competitive match then can see staying up - I remember waking up at like 3:30 to watch the final in Japan but, why not just dvr/record it unless only way you are getting it is through a stream you can't record.
If it was a competitive fixtures then no complains and I would be watching full stop. But as a friendly, there is some debate as I don't always give my full concentration to friendlies as they have tendency to drop off in tempo. Don't have MUTV either so would have to watch it via a stream.

and bollocks! The game is at 12:30 in the arvo here. I've got my graduation at 2:00.. Have to drive about 35 minutes to get there. another 15 to find parking. Dammit >_<"
But it's the MLS so ESPN should probably have some sort of replay later on in the day..
Yep they do. But it's at 10.. But I have a mate's bday at 10. Oh lovely..
EDIT: There's one at 6:30 so that is just about perfect!
Not that anyone cares. Just thinking out loud...

So this is on ESPN tonight then?
It's on ESPN in the UK, from 1:30
Depends on which part of the world you are in. New Zealand have a 12:30 live show and a 6:30 and 10:00 pm replays. I would imagine Australia have the same, but obviously with the time difference.
How many more hours, guys?
4!
They're playing at Reliant? Crap I wish I still lived on Almeda, just a five minute drive from Reliant!
When does the game start? I'm seeing 1:30, that's UK time which means it starts 2:30 CET? Is that when the game starts, or just the "coverage" (do they even have any of that before the training matches?)
