CTSA FC- not quite Manchester United…but then their manager is hardly Sir Alex Ferguson either (though he’s almost as old)….

This weekend the CTFC Supporters Team will travel to Manchester to face the supporters of Manchester City at their Platt Lane Training Ground which is where the City Academy teams train. Kick off is at 2pm on Sunday and this match will be a friendly as we build up to the start of the new season where for the 1st time we will be part of the National Supporters League.

We then have one final warmup game which will be against the supporters of Crystal Palace on July 27th at 11am- before the 1st teams meet. That game will be played on the 3G surface next to the Broadfield. We then commence our league campaign on August 3rd against the supporters of Coventry City.

We have also entered the supporters version of the FA Cup and will be away to Cambridge United in the preliminary round. We will be in the London Cup, too- where we have been drawn in a group with Gillingham, Barnet and Hampton & Richmond.

Finally we have also arranged our 1st venture into Europe when on September 29th we will face the supporters of KV Kortrijk in Belgium. Today Belgium, tomorrow the world!

Please come along to our home games (you can come to the away games too if you like, but we think we’d be cheeky to ask) and give the lads your support. Heaven knows, with Paul and Matt as their managers they need all the help they can get!
