4th Jackpot £1,000 Weekly Prize Draw Winner!

4th Jackpot £1,000 Weekly Prize Draw Winner! Our Weekly Prize Draw in partnership with the Lancashire Cricket Foundation has produced another FC United £1,000 Jackpot winner.

Mr Ray Usher from Frimley is our latest winner of the top prize in Week 33’s draw from the 9th of November becoming our 4th Jackpot winner! This good news comes only recently after Mr Royston Futter from Worsley won the top prize in Week 29’s draw from the 12th of October!

Mr Usher, a former North Stander or Stretford Ender at Old Trafford said ‘My only visit to Broadhurst Park was for that fantastic night for the opening match against Benfica. I wish the club was nearer to where i live. 10 years ago i could drive to Manchester in about 3 hours, now i have to allow double that as the roads are so congested!’


Mr Usher though is a regular FC away follower when FC travel further south. Ray said, ‘The main reason i joined the Weekly Prize Draw was to help raise money for the club, however winning is always a bonus! I am always trying to find more people to join and would encourage others to do the same.’

Congratulations go to Ray from everyone at FC and we thank him for his continued support over the years!
