Reds bound for Dublin
United will play a pre-season
friendly match against an Airtricity League XI to celebrate the opening
of the new Aviva stadium in Dublin on Wednesday 4 August. This historic
match will form part of United's pre-season preparations for the
2010/11 campaign.
Sir Alex Ferguson says he is "really
looking forward to going back to Dublin" for the first time since 2002
for a friendly match with Shelbourne, which United won 5-0.
The Reds boss told ManUtd.com:
"We have a massive fanbase in Ireland, it will be great to play a match
on their home turf and I know the Irish supporters will make the
atmosphere very special."
Ireland has always formed a strong
part of the Manchester United family. Over the years, many Irish
internationals have represented United and include legends such as
Johnny Carey, Frank Stapleton, Paul McGrath, Kevin Moran, Denis Irwin
and Roy Keane, whilst not forgetting current players John O'Shea,
Darron Gibson, Robbie Brady and Sean McGinty. It is therefore no
surprise that Ireland is home to the largest number of Manchester
United season ticket holders outside of the UK, who will no doubt give
the Reds a warm welcome in August.

Manchester United have confirmed they will play a friendly in Dublin on August 4 to open the new Aviva Stadium.
The encounter will pit Sir Alex Ferguson's men into battle with an Airtricity League XI as part of United's plans for the 2010-11 campaign.
Aside from being a competitive match against a team made up of players who will be midway through their domestic season - even if they are shorn of a few stars by European commitments - it also gives a chance for United's legion of Irish fans to see them in action.
Ireland is the country with the largest number of season-ticket holders outside the UK and has a rich history of providing players for the Old Trafford club, dating back to former skipper Johnny Carey, through to John O'Shea in the current squad.
"I am really looking forward to going back to Dublin," said Sir Alex Ferguson, who was also in charge when United made their last visit in 2002.
"We have a massive fan base in Ireland. It will be great to play a match on their home turf and I know the Irish supporters will make the atmosphere very special."
