In a sign of the changes underway at Old Trafford, within minutes of Moyes` arrival the club confirmed another regional partnership - with leading Thai telecommunications company True Corporation Plc. True will be an associate match sponsor for United`s opening tour match against Singha All Stars in Bangkok on July 13 - Moyes` first in charge. Club officials also confirmed the appointments of Steve Round as assistant manager, Chris Woods as goalkeeping coach and Jimmy Lumsden as coach. AFP
