Ilkeston matchday programme

If the match beats the weather on Saturday, we have a bumper programme for your enjoyment.

One of the success stories of this season so far has been our women’s team and we have a half term report by Rob Fullen, to keep us all updated on their progress. We also have a Q&A with their captain Amy Gillingham.

Michael Holdsworth tells us about the great work FC United is doing with mental health organisations in our community update.

Andy Walker interviews physio Debbie Wilson about her role at the club in our latest staff profile and FC fan Rob Allen looks into the efforts other clubs have started to make to try and entice fans back to the game after pricing them out. It makes for interesting reading.

The usual match reports, news, stats and away team section complete your final programme of 2012. All for £2.

Many thanks to everyone who has contributed, sold and bought the programme over the past year. We like to think we’ve got the best programme at our level, at least, and it is all down to you lot for supporting it. If you’ve stopped buying it, you’re missing out. Make it your New Year’s resolution to part with your £2 - you won’t regret it.

Anyone interested in helping through contributions or by selling on a matchday in 2013, please email programme@fc-utd.uk. Everyone is welcome.
