Of course Everyones welcome.

Chicago would be the best city probably.

defo......Chicago rocks

The problem with Chicago is that it's at least a 3 hour flight from anywhere else interesting.

You do have a point Grim.

If indeed this is official I would probably take in two games anyway.

Sounds good, I would prefer NYC though ??

Im gutted, im at the World Cup in SA for the whole of June so will be £#%&!ing skint but would have loved Chicago + Toronto.

my grandad lives in toronto my mrs family live in indy (3 hours drive to chicago)

so i think i may be the first to have done both a london fred meet russia fred meet and a usa fred meet

Chicago is probably the most important city in America, culturally speaking. You wouldn't be bothered about it not being near anywhere really.

strange it's so long since we've been back

I went in 2004 to Philadelphia and NY. Had a £#%&!ing great time. Some plum came over to where a load of us where sat singing in the ground at the Celtic game and started giving it "whooo Celtic" or some shite like that. He soon scuttled of when we all directed a load of songs at him, I don't think he expected a full volley of our finest Anglo Saxon

I went when we played Celtic at the Seahawks Stadium in Seattle. I was at that game and the game in LA I think we played Club America? The Seattle game was £#%&!ing great, largest ever crowd at Seahawks stadium.

Great day in the town center before kick off, getting pissed with all the Mancs and Celtic fans.

The locals were a bit worried to say the least

We stayed at the Sheraton in Philadelphia, got a deal of the internet cheap. Had a good time there, was down South Street quite a lot in the rock bars round there. Kind of enjoyed it more than NY in a way as the locals were a bit friendlier, I suppose they were less used to English visitors.

I only went to the NY and Philadelphia games, some Celtic draped a flag the Rocky statue outside, was a good laugh
Every time we were talking to people in bars telling them we were there to watch united the response was "oh, so your like those British soccer hooligans", aye that's right love so you'd better bring me another beer before we wreck the place
