City Fans United require a team of volunteers to assist with the mail out of the Big City Census tomorrow (Thursday).

Over 300 members completed last year’s survey and the results helped us understand what you wanted from your football club.

The Big City Census will be sent to every member of City Fans United in the coming weeks and we hope that everybody will take the time to give us their feedback on what has been a memorable year for Chester FC.

The mailing will take place at the Exacta Stadium from 10am until 4pm.

If you can spare some time please email your name and availability to james.green@cityfansunited.com

Next week sees the launch of the ‘Big City Census’ which is the second in depth Survey for all City Fans United members to cast their eyes on, as we look to shape the future of Chester FC.

Today is March 10th 2011.

 

12 months ago to the very date, Chester City Football Club ceased to exist after the club was liquidated in the High Court in London due to an unpaid tax bill of £26,000.

 

The future of football in the City of Chester was at great risk, the club which had entertained thousands for 125 years was now on its knees, and the Deva Stadium gates were closed.

 

Chester City FC was flatlined.

The first City Fans United members meeting of the year will take place in the Blues Bar at the Exacta Stadium on Tuesday 25th January, commencing at 6.30pm.

 

The Blues Bar will be open from 6pm on the evening, and please being your membership cards with you as it’s a members only meeting.

 

New memberships will be accepted on the night, for the annual fee of £5.00, and we’ll also be accepting membership renewals on the evening too, and any members that renew between now and the end of the season will go into a draw to win a 2011/12 Chester FC Season Ticket.

 

We’ll also be accepting Seals Lottery applications on the night too, and to make things easier you can download a Seals Lottery form from here or you can collect a form from the Exacta Stadium and bring down to the meeting, or drop off at the Ticket Office at the Stadium.

 

We look forward to seeing you there.

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.

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.”

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.

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.
