host the competition.
Leading up to the FA Cup semi-final against City, RoM will be running a series of interviews
with United fans. Our first is with Andy Mitten, Editor of United We Stand, who will be
talking us through his favourite derby day memories, City's fanbase and our greatest rivalries.

"I wasn't sure if I would ever be able to play again so I promised myself that when
I came back I would celebrate every single goal like it was my last."
Alecko Eskandarian brought many emotions to United fans during his time in DC. His career gave both
joy, with his 2004 MLS Cup MVP performance, and sadness, as he struggled with lingering effects of
