Manchester United have announced that the England Rugby team will play at Old Trafford. That is great news for the club and the stadium but what I am more worried about is the pitch. As far as I know, no dates have been announced.

If any of you have seen the Old Trafford pitch recently then you will know that it doesn't look great at all, it cuts up and it isn't lush green, it looks more muddy.

Saying that, this England match could be during the summer and might not affect United at all.

Manchester United chief executive David Gill was delighted with the news: "We are delighted that Old Trafford has been chosen to host this international fixture," he said."It underlines the stadium as one of the premier venues in world sport, and we look forward to welcoming both teams to the Theatre of Dreams."

*Update*

The date has been announced and it will be on the 6th June, so it won't affect Man United at all.
