Happy New Year from CFU!
As 2010 draws to a close, it’s time to pay tribute to the City Fans United membership and the battle to keep football alive in Chester in the past 12 months, which we can all say with a great deal of pride, we achieved.
November Seals Lottery Winners
The November Draw was made in the Blues Bar prior to the Radcliffe Borough game at the Exacta Stadium on December 11th, and the following names are the latest Lottery winners:
Junior Blues Quiz Shield a huge success
The very first Junior Blues Quiz Shield was held at a packed Exacta Stadium Blues Bar last Friday night, and the event has been hailed as a complete success.
Dave Cartwright, Chairman of the Junior Blues was thrilled at the success of the evening, “It was a great night, and thanks to everyone’s efforts, over £1000 was raised for the Under 16s arm of City Fans United, which will help towards costs of the free Christmas parties for the members taking place this week.”
Another £100+ raised through CFU members
City Fans United would like to thank member Martin Hurst, who has just sent a cheque in for £104.46 based on the money raising efforts of those using easyfundraising.org to raise funds for CFU & Chester FC.
‘Team of the Year’ honour for City Fans United
City Fans United have scooped the honour of ‘Team of the Year’ in the ‘Your Champions’ Awards for 2010 for the Chester area .
CFU were put forward for the award back in August after nominations were received by the Chester Chronicle, part of Trinity Mirror Cheshire group, who along with Scottish Power began to recognise those who make a difference to their Community, and it’s fair to say that the 2700 members of City Fans United have each played a part in reviving football in the Community of Chester.
