MUFC 1950’S RETRO SHIRT FROM TOFFS

In the New Year we hope to order 25 Maidenhead United 1950's retro shirts, as worn by Bert Randall and others in the Hall of Fame photos in Stripes, via the well-established Toffs website. These will be identical to the long-sleeved Newcastle United 1950's away shirt that they currently offer - all white with black collar (http://www.toffs.com/invt/1530) - but will obviously have the Maidenhead United badge used at the time (featuring inaccurate formation year of 1869) instead of the Newcastle one.

Sizes available will be M (40 – 44”), L (44 – 48”) and XL (48 – 50”) and the shirts will cost £40 for MUSA members and £45 for non-members. A £10 deposit will be required upfront. This will be refunded if we do not receive the required 25 orders. Please see a MUSA committee member to register your interest.

SUPPORTERS GAME

We were supposed to host a Welling United Supporter’s XI last season but the match fell foul of a waterlogged pitch. As for this year, the Wings continued involvement in the FA Trophy (at the time of writing) and the unpredictable weather means that we have decided against attempting to organise an encounter in Kent on 31st January. Hopefully things will be different though for the reverse fixture on 28th March. Concrete details will be made available as and when via email and the forum. Please make yourself known if you would like to play.

MUSA DONATE £1,000 TO ‘SPONSOR A SEAT’ INITIATIVE

MUSA have reacted swiftly to the club’s official announcement of the ‘sponsor a seat’ initiative (detailed elsewhere in the programme and in the press) by following up on our earlier pledge to sponsor 20 seats at £50 each – we hope to present a cheque to the club ASAP. MUSA fully commend the club on this initiative and, while mindful of the harsh economic climate, would like to encourage its members, specifically, and Magpies fans in general to support it where possible.

MEMBERSHIP RENEWAL / NEW MEMBERS

That time of year again! 12 month renewal remains available at a cost of £5 (£1 for under 16’s) or, alternatively, you can obtain Life Membership of MUSA for £25. Please pay cash or cheque to any MUSA committee member at a game or at the AGM. Cheques - made payable to Maidenhead United Supporters Association - can also be sent to Flat 6, Elmhurst, 56 Bath Road, Maidenhead, Berkshire SL6 4JY. New membership cards will be distributed following receipt of funds.

New members are always welcome - £5 annual subscription plus £5 joining fee (£1/£1 for under 16’s) or £25 life membership plus £5 joining fee (no concessions). Please obtain and complete a membership form from the club shop at halftime or contact one of the committee members at a first team game.

PLAYER SPONSORSHIP / 49 CLUB / MoM ADJUDICATORS

MUSA will again be running these initiatives for the new season. Both are important streams of revenue for the Association, enabling us to implement ground improvements (MUSA paid for the paint used during this Summer’s Work Parties, for example) and organise events such as the ever-popular Hall of Fame nights, so please donate if you possibly can.

Re sponsorship - players are available at £40 on a first came, first served basis with money required upfront. Why not show your support for your favourite player, get your name in the programme on a weekly basis and help out the Association while you’re at it?!

The 49 Club will run for 36 weeks from Saturday 16th August - £2 per week or £60 upfront. Each week will see two winners (one on a Wednesday, the other on Saturday) taking home £25 each.

MoM Adjudicators will be required for each game. Feel free to put yourself forward for a particular match and get your opinion and your name in the programme!

Those interested any or all of the above should email musa2006@fsmail.net or contact one of the committee members at a first team game.

SUMMER WORK PARTIES / RE-UPHOLSTERING OF SEATS IN STRIPES / “ENGLISH HERITAGE” YORK ROAD SIGN

Thanks to all those who provided their time (and paint!) during the Work Parties that were organised throughout the summer; your hard work has made a real difference and is, I‘m sure, much appreciated by the club.

The aforementioned minutes make note that MUSA is to re-upholster the 60 seats in Stripes. To clarify, we have agreed to pay for this subject to satisfactory quotes being received. At the time of writing those we have been given have proved too costly.

Another specific ground issue that we have been dealing with is, at Mark Smith’s suggestion, the erection of a blue “English Heritage” plaque at the York Road entrance commemorating the ground’s status as the oldest continuously used in the world by the same club. We hope to have the plaque in place by the first Saturday home game of the season, if not before.

SUPPORTERS GAMES

The actual red and yellow kit, sponsored by MUSA, that was once the first team’s away strip is now in our possession and will be used as our supporters kit for the forthcoming season! It is hoped that matches will be scheduled prior to our home fixtures with the following sides…

04/10 - Dorchester Town * 15/11 - Eastleigh * 14/03 - Basingstoke Town * 28/03 - Welling United * 25/04 - Hampton & Richmond Borough

…confirmed details plus information on any possible away fixtures will be announced via the usual outlets in due course. Those interested in representing MUSA in any of these matches should email musa2006@fsmail.net or contact one of the committee members at a first team game. Please note that preference will be given to MUSA members regarding team selection.

MUSA MERCHANDISE

Replicas of the aforementioned red & yellow ‘MUSA’ shirts are available in the club shop with (over) 10% off for MUSA members. Short-sleeved/XL only.

TIM ALFRED MEMORIAL GAME(S)

Following on from Maidenhead United Reserves’ 3-1 win over a Castle Vale XI in Solihull on Saturday 2^nd August comes a second match to celebrate Tim’s life which will hopefully also raise money for the two charities he supported, namely Oxfam and Avert Aids…

Maidenhead Boys & Girls XI v Maidenhead United Supporters Association

Date: Sunday 7th September @ 3 pm - Venue: York Road - Entry: Free

Those interested in representing MUSA in this match should email musa2006@fsmail.net or contact one of the committee members at a first team game.
