Reserves arrange friendlies

United's Reserves will undergo another gruelling pre-season schedule in preparation for the new campaign.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side, who were unbeaten in nine matches last summer, will contest eight friendlies and the Lancashire Senior Cup final ahead of the 2009/10 Barclays Premier Reserve League season.

The Reds travel to Fylde, Rochdale, Norwich City, Luton Town and Altrincham in England, before international trips to go up against Katwijk and Royal Antwerp. They will play also in The WVO Tournament during their stay in Holland.

Those warm-up matches precede the Lancashire Senior Cup Final against Bolton at the County Ground in Leyland, where the Reds will aim to defend the trophy they won last August.
