Is it needed??


My season ticket is up and want to know what to do. I bought it last year to show my support, never got to a game, and would not know a player on the team.

What will make me want to renew my membership?? The whole Anti-Glazier thing has washed away, I want to be committed to a club with values, ambition and proper leadership. Does FCUM have it?
If theres no FC then 3000+ people stop going to football altogether.

Of course FC UNITED is needed. Kids going to games for £2 each, teenagers now able to go to games with their mates and see a game instead of hanging about on streets with fuck all to do.

FC is only just starting out, and despite a brilliant start there is so much work to do. THere is a whole array of people who for one reason or another are crying out for something like FC United, and we have to get the message out.

Only today I was stopped in Walsall high St and asked if that was an FC United shirt, and when I told the lads it was they couldnt speak highly enough of FC United. THe ideals, the way its been approached and most of all the fact that we havent just sat on our backsides and done nothing at all.

Whether you renew or not, is up to you. You have to look at FC and decide if you believe in it.

All I can say is that FC United will go as far as the members want it to go. The leadership you speak of is the fans themselves. We dictate where our club goes. If you want to be a part of that then there is a seat waiting for you. If you dont, fair play, I wont think any less of you, in fact the very fact you helped start FC United is something you should be very very proud of, and something you will in years to come look back on with pride.

Just do what you feel is right, and let your conscience guide you. If you are ever about and get to an FC United game which I sincerely hope you do, then you will always be welcome, member or non member. THe door will always be there for you to walk into.
