_________________________________________________
We have been informed that the League Management Committee has switched the kick off time of our fixture against Curzon Ashton from 3pm to a lunchtime kick off to accommodate the game being televised on the League’s Internet TV channel.
FC United and Curzon Ashton had informed the League prior to the League Management Committee meeting that both clubs would be opposed to the switch but the League have chosen to ignore our views. We have written to the League and asked them to reconsider but they are standing by their decision.
“The board of FC United is asking supporters to show their opposition to the League’s decision by not going to the game against Curzon. It is regrettable that Curzon Ashton may suffer financially from the consequence of this change to the kick off time, especially given their support in opposing the switch. However the board feel that it is important that a message is sent to the League that the views of the match-going fan must take precedence and those fans should not be inconvenienced in favour of a potential Internet audience”
“All supporters are free to make up their own mind as to whether they support the call not to attend but the board of FC United believes that this particular issue is intrinsically linked to the disillusionment with top-flight football shared by many fans, that led to the formation of our club and as such a strong message needs to be communicated to the League.”
If you do not want to be inconvenienced, just for the benefit of a small number of internet audience watchers, under the assurance that you would not be, then please sign this petition.
This petition will be sent to the Unibond League directly in protest against its nonsensical actions.
