HARGREAVES' GRIEF SET TO END

Owen Hargreaves gave Manchester United and England a massive boost yesterday by playing his first game for 16 months.

The midfielder took part in a specially arranged practice match at United's Carrington training ground.

He has not played for the first team since the 1-1 draw against Chelsea on September 21, 2008.

There have been fears that Hargreaves might never recover from tendinitis in his knees.

But he lasted the full 90 minutes yesterday.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson had claimed he would return to action last September, but there was never any chance of that.

Hargreaves' chronic knee condition is similar to that of tennis ace Rafa Nadal and has to be carefully managed if he is to make a first team comeback, which is still several weeks away.

Hargreaves' progress will be noted by England coach Fabio Capello, who has never been able to pick the midfielder.

The versatile Hargreaves was a star of the 2006 World Cup and Capello wants him at this summer's finals in South Africa.

Uh huh...the 16th. I have a long train ride/day ahead of me, but I'll probably cry a thousand times because I'm popping my United match cherry and sitting way up in the North Stand.

AND I DON'T GIVE A FUCK!

I'm in tier 3...if you do end up going, that'd be nice. I mean, 75000 mates will be there, if you catch my drift, but I will otherwise be flying solo.
