CFU in bid to get young people supporting Chester City FC
It is with great pleasure and immense pride that City Fans United are able to announce the birth of its Junior Blues section.
Chair of the Junior Blues, Dave Cartwright, says: “We want to see the kids of Chester wearing Chester City shirts and scarves, not those of Premier League giants.”
City Fans United is working hard to produce contingency plans and amass contingency funds to secure the future of professional football in Chester. These are medium and long term aspirations; quite rightly our focus is not on what happens today or tomorrow, but on contingency planning for the coming weeks and months ahead.
City Fans United, the name given to the new supporters’ group for Chester City FC, have announced plans to amass a ‘War Chest’ to ensure the future of professional football in the City of Chester.
This would give the potential opportunity for all fans of Chester City to collectively own the club and would mean the club being owned by the fans for the first time in its 125-year history.
Following recent public meetings, fans of Chester City football club have called for contingency plans to be made should the football club face future financial difficulties. While City Fans United wish to see the club go from strength to strength, the fans realise that they must have a Plan B in place.
Thank you to everyone who attended the launch night. I think the night was very successful and showed that there is unity and passion among the fans of Chester City. So what happens next? Click on ‘Read More’ for the full article. (more…)
The launch event for City Fans United took place last night at the Divas Showbar on Station Road. The event was superbly chaired by Charlie Lambert and was well attended by the City faithful with over 150 estimated in attendance.
City Fans United are in the process of organising a City Legends evening as one of their first activities.
This will be a chance to hear and meet some old favourites from the past, have a photo done, or a picture signed, and a chance to mingle and meet other City supporters for a pre-Christmas pint or two. The event will take place at the Diva Showbar on Station Road on Thursday 3rd December.
More details will follow as they become available.
Preparations continue for City Fans United’s targetted launch in October. Michael Poole has been appointed as interim ‘Working Party Chairman’. Michael posts on Deva Chat as ‘Mike’, and will chair the WP meetings until the new committee is formed.
