For home fans only (no access to or from away end):

We've got a full day of entertainment lined up in a 9 hour survival extravaganza:

1pm: CYCM starts in the SMRE. Full preview to follow but line-up here: https://twitter.com/malcolmses/status/1 ... 9668552704
For those supporters attending Course You Can Malcolm’s there will be an early entrance turnstile at the St. Mary’s Road End open from 1.00 pm.

5pm - 7.55pm: All into the function room for the post match survival party. George Hayden will be putting on an FA Cup quiz followed by the one and only Micky O'Farrell on guitar leading the singsong. Reno messaged me last night to say 'The lads will stay!! the place will be rocking..' In the background to all this will be a tale of 2 cities over on BT Sport. If nothing else it is a good excuse to sing a few songs to Chaddy who will be made to watch if they are losing but locked away in a cupboard if they win. Hot food will available to buy in the function room after the match so don't worry about supplies.

7.55pm until full time: Wolves V Manchester United on all the function room screens. Yes its on BBC but wouldn't you want to watch it in our club house. After a singalong with Micky we'll all be buzzing for this one.

FC is always asking for your cash. This is the easiest fundraiser. Just turn up with enough dosh and spend the day with your mates enjoying yourselves at your club

York City were a League club between 1929 and 2004 and 2012 to 2016.
The Minstermen have lost 8 of their last 11 away League fixtures.
York manager Steve Watson scored an own goal at Old Trafford in a 1-2 defeat on 02/05/1999 when playing for Aston Villa.
England manager Gareth Southgate was a team mate on that day.
The last time FCUM won successive League games was in November, when Blyth Spartans and Hereford were beaten.
At Telford Dom McHale joined Phil Marsh and Stephen Johnson in scoring for and against FCUM in the same season. McHale scored the winner for Ashton United at Broadhurst Park in a 4-3 victory in August.
