Apparently United's summer tour will take them America and Canada.

Glazer fury fans on way to the USA
EXCLUSIVE
Steve Bates
Manchester United fans can take their anti-Glazer protests right to the doorstep of their American owners this summer - when the champions tour the US for the first time in five years.
United will play in Chicago, New York and Toronto in July and more destinations will be announced in the coming weeks.
And that will give fans who have reacted with fury to the financial meltdown at Old Trafford the chance to take their protests across the Atlantic.
The Glazer family, who have saddled United with debts of £711million and interest payments of more than £60m a year, also own the Tampa Bay Bucaneers American football team.
United have never visited Florida since being taken over by the Glazer family - but it is unlikely that will happen this summer.
That would be too close to home for the Glazer family who are public enemy number one among United supporters.
Fans groups have already staged protests and called for the Glazers to sell the club and more demonstrations against the American owners are planned.
Many fans have shown their disdain for the Glazers by wearing green and yellow shirts and scarves - the original colours of United when they first formed as Newton Heath in 1878.
The tour is in the final planning stage but it is understood United will also play in Canada for the first time, with Toronto the likely destination.
^Probably to play someone else though right? and even if it is us it will cost a fortune
Problably won't stop you or Shags though eh?
Saving money as we speak.
^^Shhhhhh you know THEY are watching and will take you up on the anything promise.
Ya, almost forgot you too Brit! I may go and sit with the TFC supporters! lol
BRING IT!!!!
I'm pretty sure I could live on with one nut.....
I can do without alcohol for a few months.
I could sell my hair!

Edu -> Grass -> Manchester United = AWESOME!!!!
This was rumoured on the V's board a few days ago, I didn't take it too seriously. I really hope that play TFC at BMO.
LOL @ people who are against TFC playing friendlies against European clubs.
I hope this does happen!
Selling my car now.
I could live with the same pricing as the Real Madrid game, pricey indeed but nothing I need cash in a retirement plan for.
^^^ That would be nice
iam saying this on the record to MLSE do this up for us i'll pay the 150$ or whatever charges you had for RM just do it up so I can get first shot at tix LOL.

I'd bet my next paycheque that it's going to be at Skydome
I'd love to see them. I'll hold out hope that it will be at BMO against TFC.
I mean, if they can get Real Madrid to come just after they signed Kaka and Ronaldo AND work it so that they have to play, I think they can do the same for ManU. Not to mention getting to see Raul.
I really hope this happens.

On another (flaming Lol) note....I think those who boycotted RM due to the prices should not be afforded the opportunity to see ManU if the prices are the same.
