Highlights of the friendly match - Boston United v Manchester United 25 July 2001The attendance was 5184 - wonder if we get near to this on Monday night.https://youtu.be/Ct29fpM6BVABearing in mind the regime at the date of this fixture do you think the attendance could be be understated ? after all anyone can make mistakes and they made plenty .
Did any of those young Manchester United players become regular first team players?

Maybe the 18 in the 5184 was incorrectly written down (5841!!)
I remember having the feeling of being conned. It was not advertised as a X1. After we bought the tickets, did we then realise that the first team was abroad and a Man U 11 was playing elsewhere.
