Referee: Armando Archundia
 
Supposedly 45 minutes for each side.

Though maybe it's more of a case of he'll play part of one half for one team and then part of the second half for the other.

I need to see if this game is on TV in the US.
 
Are we back in England after this?
 
They won't let cameras into the stadium, that's just ridiculous. I'll post some cellphone pictures when I get back home.

They generally mean spectators bringing in professional type cameras with big bad zoom lenses and such. Your run of the mill digital camera should be fine.

Sadly, no :( The official Chivas twitter account has just tweeted "Remember, NO cameras tomorrow, only the ones in your cellphones."

Stupid if you ask me.
 
That stadium looks like the Tellytubby house thingy.

Are Chivas any good? Will we dick them 4-0?
 
Not sure how I feel about this match. They beat us to the league last season so I'm a bit sore about playing them so soon afterwards.
 
Ah - misread it. Thought it said 'Chavis'.
 
Kuszczak

Rafael
Smalling
J Evans
O'Shea

Nani
Scholes
Fletcher
Giggs

Berbatov
Hernandez

Is what I think Fergie will play for the first half, followed by subs on for Macheda, Cleverley, Gibson, Diouf and Obertan (if fit) at least in the second.
 
Will Hernandez be the first opposition player we would be rooting to score against us? :D
 
Don't see it on any of the lineups on DirecTv listings - Spanish or otherwise :(
 
3:15am? Later than usual. This will definitely be a case of sleep, alarm, watch game, sleep.

A few people wanted Becks to get a goal when we dicked on Milan.
 
Haha yeah I realised. You lot definitely have the dedication, that's for sure.
 
May I please apologise in advance right now.
I'm going to a house party tonight and then I'm coming back to watch the football.
My spelling could well be awful.
 
So the world cup players will only play 2 games before the Newcastle game?

Christ pre-season has been short this summer!
 
There's no way I'm staying up 'till 6 AM just to watch us play Chivas. It was bad enough staying up 'till 5 to watch the MLS game.

Here's hoping Maxxed has download links to the game when I wake up.
 
I am posting from my phone so I can't check but I'm fairly sure the game is on espn3- online.For those in US
 
MUTV are starting their coverage at 4:45am and the OP has KO time at 3:15am. So when is this game kicking off?

Hell yeah it is - thanks for posting this. Didn't even think to. Thankfully my ISP gives free access to ESPN3.com
