Digital matchday programme officially launched

We are chuffed to announce that this season supporters will be able to download a PDF version of the FC United matchday programme to their computer, phone or tablet.

Our subscription service is now operational, so you can subscribe to a season’s worth of programmes for £30 by visiting this page.

This presents a big saving over the season.

We will also be selling PDF programmes on a match-by-match basis for £1.50 via the club shop.

The process for subscribers is explained here.

A link to a special page on the official website will be emailed to all subscribers as soon as the order can be processed, which can only be accessed using a supplied username and password.

Let us know how you find it and if there are any ways you think it could be improved.

We used the recent Blackburn Rovers XI friendly as a trial run and the programme from that game can still be downloaded from the downloads section of the club shop.

We are hopeful this will become a successful initiative, bringing in funds to help the club keep football affordable for all and to maintain the quality of our matchday programme.

We hope this initiative will not have a detrimental effect on the hard copy of the programme, which will continue to be our priority and we will always sell it on a matchday for those supporters who prefer the traditional format, at the usual price of £2 per issue (which has not risen since the very first one in August 2005).

We are also pleased to announce a new subscription service for the hard copy of the programme. For £42 you will get each programme during the season, posted out for free, including cup games. To take advantage visit the club shop.

As always, send feedback, ideas, Meet the Owners candidates, pictures or articles to: programme@fc-utd.uk

Thanks for your support and feedback.
