Having one of them sat on the bench was great and something I'll never forget."However, the veteran forward was quick to point out that his main concern on the evening was raising money for charity through ticket sales. "The important message we wanted to get across was about the money we raised for the charities," he added. "That was always the intention."In terms of the support, the crowd which came, it was fantastic, so it will really change a lot of children's lives." United's next fixture is the traditional season curtain-raiser in the Community Shield on Sunday, against Premier League champions Leicester City.</blockquote>
