NEWSLETTER No.11 of 2023/2024
Dear Member,
1. MEMBERSHIP RENEWALS
The 2023/2024 Manchester United Football Club (MUFC) Official Membership was sold out in January 2024 with over 360,000 Official Members. The second time that this has occurred, the highest membership ever in world sport. This creates a huge demand for match tickets. MUFC has already opened renewals and new memberships for 2024/2025 season and specify that they do not know until when the membership will remain open with such demand. Therefore, the Branch is ready to accept applications for renewals and new memberships for the coming season. The enclosed Membership Application Form shows the different categories/types and respective membership fees for the season 2024/2025. MUFC and Local Branch membership fees remain the same as last season. There has been no change in categories/types or fees. Due to the new Manchester United Supporters Club’s (MUSC) Charter, the MUFC fees and the Local Branch fees had to be separated but the amount payable is the TOTAL as shown on the forms.

In order to renew your membership you are requested to complete and return the local membership form enclosed, together with the appropriate fee for your category/type of membership. We will then renew your membership with the Branch and with Manchester United. Manchester United may send you a reminder, in the coming weeks, inviting you to renew the Membership, please disregard this request. If you have any queries or difficulties in completing the form please contact the Ticketing and Membership Secretary who will provide whatever assistance is required.
Preferably payments should be made through online banking details as follows:
Name: MAN UNITED SUPPORTER
Sort Code: 60-60-60
Account No.: 48120278
Please give your name as reference
If however this is not a convenient option, Cheques (payable to M.U.S.G.B.) or Cash payments are acceptable.
As in the previous years, we will receive an allocation of a fixed number of tickets for every Premiership home game. The allocation will be dependent on the number of members we have as at 1st August 2024. It is therefore in the interest of all members that the Branch has the highest possible number of members registered by that deadline. We should therefore be grateful if you would return the completed form before the 15th July 2024 in order to achieve the greatest allocation possible. It is for this reason that members who are registered with the Branch before the 15th July will be given priority for match tickets and Branch Trip games over those who renew or become members after this date.
The Committee would like to remind members that by enrolling as a local member you will automatically take part in a raffle which can win you a trip to Old Trafford when the Branch organises its annual trip (up to a maximum of £750).
2. TICKETS
Please note that tickets requested by members are to be used by the member requesting the ticket(s) and cannot be transferred to another member or non-member without the written consent of the Branch.
