Okay, ill answer this for you.
No - There is a bond between Man Utd and Bishop Auckland due to the fact that Bishop were the most successful amateur side in English history, and to this day hold the record for most FA cups won. After the Munich Air disaster, Man Utd appealed to a number of teams for support in increasing their staff, and Bishop Auckland sent them a number of players, including the great Bob Hardisty.
About 13 year ago, Bishop Auckland were sued by a Mansfield town player when a Bishop fullback broke his leg, and he was out of work. The resuylting £75,000 reward that the player got practically purt Bishop of of business as a club. Man Utd jumped to their aid by sending loads of good for auction and playing a friendly at Bishops then ground, Kingsway. A charity day was held before with the likes of Gary Pallister signing autographs. The team that played on the night included some unseen faces, who later would have succesful careers, including Gary and Phil Neville, Chris Casper (for you bury fans), Michael Twiss, Paul Scholes and a Mr D. Beckham. Ole Solksjaer also played. Bishops raised enough to survive, thanks largely to this sell out game, however never really got back to where they had been previously.
So no, they are not twins, but have previously relied on each other for support and have a shared bond in a crisis.

The harbour-side town of Auckland is New Zealand's true area and the vivid economic heart of the nation, know it with hotelbye . Auckland can be referred to as the "City of Sails" and it sprawls out in helter-skelter fashion between Manukau Harbour (to the west) and Waitemata Harbour (to the east) with the compact key city district proper near the waterway. For most guests to New Zealand, Auckland is the point of birth, and several days washing up the cultural and outside attractions here should be on every tourist's to-do list. The monuments, museums, and art galleries here are some of the finest in the country. The suburban coastline of the city is speckled with great beaches, and the hawaiian islands of the Hauraki Gulf supply a taste of New Zealand's magnificent national park landscape right on the city's doorstep. Auckland is surely a town worth seeing.

No, I wouldn't throw a grenade on the pitch at Bishop Auckland, but I would at Old Trafford. Chew on that Fergie.
