I honestly thought there were United apps in the store that I've seen and
skipped hastily past! (smile). Naturally you've done a search with their
name or words to that effect in it? I'd never find an app for them if I
wrote the words I had in mind in my search, (big grin).
Kind Regards,

Yusuf, why nit write to Sir Alex and ask him. Another idea is absolute
radio and the World Service usually takes in the second half.
Cheers

Thanks to everyone's suggestions on this. Andy's right I was looking for
commentary on United's games when they are only broadcast nationally on Talk
Sport as I can't stand their commentary.
I tried BBC Manchester, but they weren't allowed to broadcast online and so
weren't broadcasting through OOTunes on my IPhone. I also tried Key103, who
used to broadcast United's games but they either aren't doing them anymore
or like BBC Manchester weren't allowed to make them available online.
I may have to bite the bullet and pay for a MU TV subscription and get the
radio commentary that way. As I recall though it wasn't terribly accessible
and I'm not sure they've got a way of accessing the commentary from a
portable device.
One of the football apps suggested is supposed to be getting commentary
soon, but hasn't yet. I also read some comments suggesting that some of the
most important info wasn't accessible. This included scores.
Any other ideas? I'm absolutely amazed that United haven't got an IPhone app
of their own, its unlike them not to make the most of getting as much money
out of the fans as they can. LOL.
