The fund raising Race Night held at Cossham Street after the league fixture against North Leigh proved to be a huge success. The event organised by Mangotsfield United Supporters Club (2009) raised around £500 for the football club.
The committee of MUSC (2009) would like to thank Shaun and Tracy Lecrass for organising the event, The Club Shop, Armoured Sealed Units, Roman Glass, Bob Jenkins, MUSC (2009), Pat McKeown, Trade Windows and Jon Tuck for their generous contributions and all supporters, players and management for supporting the event and helping us to raise funds for the football club. (21/01)
At the end of the 2011/12 season, four of the current MUSC committee of eight will be standing down. This presents an opportunity for new people to join the committee and help build on the success that MUSC has enjoyed during its first three years.
However, it also represents a very real threat to the continuation of the supporters’ club. There is a possibility that insufficient new committee members can be found.
This is an appeal to all supporters to consider whether they may be willing to stand for election to the 2012/13 committee. As well as helping on match days (if possible) and with fundraising initiatives, the committee meet once a month to discuss current issues and the way forward for MUSC.
If you think you might be interested, please speak to Andy Milne (chairman) or Caroline Smardon (secretary). If you’re not sure, please chat to Andy, Caroline or any of the current committee members to discuss the role and help you decide if it’s right for you. (04/02)
