Membership Renewals 2011/12

It’s been a successful season for Chester FC and City Fans United, and our congratulations go to Neil Young, his management team, and of course the players of Chester Football Club for achieving a Championship winning promotion at the first attempt!

 

Now, we are looking to all members of City Fans United to help push us to the next level, as we enter the summer period where planning for next season continues, and what better way to help than by renewing your CFU membership if you’ve not already done so…if you have then thank you very much, your support is truly appreciated. (Please note, Life memberships from the Chester City Supporters Trust / Chester City Independent Supporters Association that were previously in place will be honoured through City Fans United membership, so no need to renew, but if you would still like to make a donation instead as others have done, then that will also be appreciated but not expected).

Time for the Battle to begin…Let’s Play Our Part!

So, here we are with 4 games remaining, and Chester FC top of the League having amassed 90 points in a season that has seen the Blues in their maiden season, win 27 league games, and lose on 4 of the 40 played so far.

 

The team have put 99 goals past their opposition in those 40 games so far, and are hopefully going to make it past the 100 mark on Saturday at Radcliffe, as we begin the first of four crucial games this season.

 

We are, as they say, at the business end of the campaign, and having guaranteed a play off place in that first season – an achievement which should not go un-noticed for a club rebuilt from scratch in the space of 12 weeks, are within touching distance of lifting a Championship title and promotion at the first time of asking.
