Maybe we should be worrying about more pressing issues closer to home like ticket prices, ejections for persistent standing etc rather than generating 21 pages fretting about a non-league club playing in the evo stik league.?
And we call the Rags obsessed....
Read the thread title it might give you a clue to what the discussion is about !<br /><br />-- Sun Feb 26, 2012 8:34 pm --<br /><br />Commuinty work aka FCUM style :
This is an example of the kind of ''Community Work'' that FC United get involved in...... going into schools, teaching kids FC United songs and taking them to a game to sing them.....
This from their own website :-
FC United’s final home match of the season was graced by the presence of children from Ancoats, Beswick and Newton Heath who had participated in the Singing with FC United project.
The club worked with staff from the Manchester Music Service to go into schools and teach children the fans’ favourite songs.
The result was that on the day the children joined in enthusiastically with a number of songs including the classic, ‘He’s not from Gorton’, a song about FC’s leading goalscorer whom the children clapped eyes on for the first time that day.
The children also got a chance to sing their own versions of a number of songs for FCUM Radio.
Robin Pye, FC’s Community & Education Manager said, “The children got a lot more out of their match experience because they knew the words to the songs. We will be harnessing the power of music in future projects with this age group.”
Cant wait for my kid coming home singing FCUM songs ........ i think not.
