CFU Meeting – Thursday 15 November

Posted by Jeff Banks on

The next City Fans United meeting will take place in the Blues Bar, at the Swansway Chester Stadium, on Thursday 15th November.

 

The meeting that will get underway at 7.30pm, is an informal meeting and so is open to non-members as well as current members.

 

It’s an ideal opportunity to come and hear from the CFU board on latest developments, as well as hopefully hearing from joint managers Bern & Jonno.

 

You can also sign up to CFU membership on the night too, with the membership package an unbeatable £12 per year at present.

 

The intention is also to stream the meeting on our CFU You Tube channel, on the evening itself.

 

Chester FC Christmas Raffle 2018

Posted by David Williams on

Tickets for this year’s Christmas Raffle are available from the club’s ticket office during office hours and from the Community Trust’s Gazebo prior to home games on Saturdays. For those who cannot get to the stadium, requests for tickets to be posted out can be sent to info@chesterfc.com

 

The Raffle is a key source of income for Chester FC – therefore we need CFU Members not only to buy tickets but also sell them to their family, friends and work colleagues.

 

The Fundraising Working Group will be taking tickets around pubs in the local area and also selling them in the Chester Forum on a couple of days – for which we thank the council for giving us permission. However we need as many people out there distributing tickets as possible. This is a chance for everyone who loves the club to work together and really make a difference. Fan ownership – fan action – at its best.

 

Although our managers are working wonders on the pitch, it has been a tough season for the club – especially with the flood at the stadium (and even international call-ups for our opponents!) depriving us of some lucrative Saturday fixtures.

 

Aside from helping the club… who wouldn’t want to miss the chance of winning £1,000 for just a pound? We have many other great prizes – checkout www.chesterfc.com/raffle – and we will be adding to the list in the weeks ahead.

 

CFU Life Membership – Payments Instalments News

Posted by Jeff Banks on

CFU Life Membership form

 

The CFU Fan Engagement Working Group (FEWG) can confirm that following feedback from the members, that an additional instalment plan has been put into place for those members wishing to take up Life Membership of CFU.

 

During the last couple of weeks, members were advised of the new package that enables Life Membership to be secured by way of either a one off £1000 payment, or by a maximum of 4 payments of £250.

 

The FEWG are now delighted to announce that members can now spread their Life Membership payments over a 10 month period, with a contribution via Direct Debit of £100 per month.

 

We hope this enables more members to take up the Life Membership option – all those wishing to take advantage of this extra option are invited to email membership@cityfansunited.com and we will then send details of how to activate a Direct Debit.

 

Please note, the benefits of Life membership (with the exception of the new pin badge) will be applicable to new members once at least a 50% contribution has been made. Life membership will be revoked if the full £1000 is not received within the 10 month period.

 

Of course, the other options for securing Life Membership remain – so if you would like to make a one off payment or pay via the 4 x £250 payments then please either email membership@cityfansunited.com or contact Chester FC on 01244 371376 during normal office hours.

 

The FEWG will shortly be sending Life membership packs out to those who have purchased the new Life Membership package – and we thank them for doing so.
