alright so i can attack all or some of your points. I'l start with the ticket holders.

Robson:
Ticket holders: you just decrease the price by that amount before you sell the season tickets! Offer them up the first chance to purchase an inclusive "package" which is fairly cheap round trip flights and tickets to the "United" section of the new meadowlands stadium. Second pick should be One United members who are not season ticket holders, and finally general admission scemes.

Timing: you have to do this in August. Personally I don't see a better time. If the team doesn't like the result, they have time to change it throughout the season. By having the game in August you are also not competing with football, baseball, basketball, and at the same time you might be putting the spot light on the ML (possibly).

Security: Bring a security bloke to manage the outfit and handle it like you would a Tyneside derby; horses and all.

Travel costs: for the normal fan: Deal with it. There is no absolute perfect solution, but for the benefit of spreading the game, you have to analyze the cost/benefit analysis and this is a definite cost - one that is easily mitigated by the positive press and new consumers of the sport.

Travel demands on the players: Having it in August helps i scheduling for this. This is a nonissue in my opinion. You can schedule this to fit easily. Break out a calendar and take care of this issue.

Home/away issue: Yeah this sucks and I have no answer. It has to be something that is agreed upon. If it was me, I'd choose an opponent like Aston Villa, or West Ham who have enough of a following to make it interesting, but not so much that you hear them over the United games, and you sacrifice a home game. Trust me, if I'm there, the section around me will rival Old Trafford. From personal experience I wasn't particularly impressed with the lower levels of the Stretford end and I think too much is made over the atmostphere at OT when we play lower level teams. Admittedly, it's a different story against big teams. Would you prefer our away support at Villa Park or home support at OT? TO me the benefit of opening up the market a little more and getting some more attention is worth it, but I can see how this is a major point of contention.

Dimzy:
Political Issues: If you're a Brit and are tired of the Americanization, you should be aware of how much indie music is British, how international clothing styles move west, not east (particuarly the punk style of manchester in nyc, uggh it's annoying), and how for once the English game is infiltrating the Americans, instead of vice versa. Outside of this there are no political issues. Someone has to be first and I can't see any reason to not use United.

Money not gained by other teams: They have to deal with it and queue themselves up if they want in. Someone has to be first. No reason why not United.

Everton: This has nothing to do with Everton. Their bitching and complaining is of their own doing and has nothing to do with a one off game. They are complaining for a completely unrelated reason. The fans voted to move to that ground, not to play a single match there. There is a massive difference. Those fans are so bitter that they are second to Liverpool to the extent that they have to move to the fringe of Merseyside, while the red parts of town are in the prime spot. That's their issue, not playing somewhere for a single game.
