BID FOR SIR BOBBY: Win the chance to watch Man United train, a private tour of Old Trafford and executive seats at a top match
Four lucky fans are being offered the chance to win a money-can't-buy experience at Manchester United.
The Premier League champions are offering the chance to watch the team train, a behind the scenes tour of the training ground, the Old Trafford stadium and the museum, along with executive seats at a top match.
You will also get the chance to meet the United hosts and ex-players in attendance, all as part of Sir Bobby Robson's Breakthrough Online Charity Auction.

Also recently added is a VIP Bayern Munich Experience with personal presentation. Donated by the German and European champions and their manager Pep Guardiola, this once in a lifetime opportunity is for two people to attend training, then enjoy a meet and greet with the superstar players and receive a first team signed shirt presented by their manager.
Pep, who played under Sir Bobby Robson at Barcelona, said: 'It was a pleasure to know the great Sir Bobby Robson, not only as a coach, but also as a person. Every day with him was a marvellous experience. It was a very difficult season, even though we won three trophies.
'Despite the problems of that year, he never lost his composure and always behaved like a gentleman. I am very happy to donate a special auction prize and I ask everyone around the world to get involved in Sir Bobby’s Breakthrough Auction and go to the auction website.'
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, meanwhile, has signed a pair of his worn boots.

Mourinho, who worked under Robson at Barcelona, has form for donating the cause, having previously given away one of the charity's most celebrated items, his FIFA Ballon d'Or Coach of the Year trophy, which rasied £26,000.
The boots come with a photograph authenticating his signature.
'Bobby Robson is one of those people who will always be remembered' said Mourinho.
'Not just for what he did in his fantastic career or for one victory more or less, but for what he gave to those who had, like me, the good fortune to know him and walk by his side. I am so happy to again support Sir Bobby’s Breakthrough Auction and I encourage everyone around the world to do the same. Together we will help make the biggest difference in the fight against cancer.'
