Last night I had the opportunity to go to a Manchester United football match with Graham, the church-warden from St. Andrews in Higher Blackley. When I was at St. Andrews Sunday night leading worship he mentioned that he had an extra ticket. I said I'd love to go if he'd like some company because I'd never been before. Going to a European football match puts to shame any American sporting event I've ever been to, including an OU football game, a Yankees game (although in Arlington) and seeing Michael Jordan.
Here are a couple of photos from the game. Enjoy!!

It was hard to get a good photo of the stadium, Old Trafford the "Theatre of Dreams", at night.
Me and Graham.
The pre-match introductions.
A bit of the action. It was a crowd of over 75,000. Manchester United beat Portsmouth 2-0.
