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 to build ‘War Chest’
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.
