Exiles Membership

WELL DONE ROBERT!
Congratulations to Exiles member Robert Evans who was declared Chester City’s 2007 ‘Super Fan’ after winning a Coca-Cola competition to help raise transfer money for the football club. During the summer a total £2197.50 was raised by Chester City supporters of which £561 was raised by Robert from collecting tokens from bottles of Coca Cola. Robert’s prize for his efforts was a day out at Deva Stadium with five guests as ball sponsors for the opening game against Chesterfield. Robert also picked up a signed City shirt and football and the chance to meet new manager Bobby Williamson just prior to the kick-off.

APFSCIL BOWLING NIGHT 2007
The Exiles recently fielded a team in the annual APFSCIL tenpin Bowling Tournament in Finsbury Park, north London. You can read Steve Musson’s report on the night here.

EXILES MEET THE PLAYERS/MANAGER 2006
Thanks to manager Mark Wright, assistant manager Graham Barrow and the staff and players who agreed to meet the Exiles on the eve of the Barnet game in October 2006. A friendly informal night was enjoyed by all in the surroundings of the team hotel in Waltham Abbey. After a lengthy chat with the players we enjoyed a Q&A session with the management team.

EXILES JOIN THE FIGHT FOR LEAGUE STATUS

A big thanks goes to club director Paul Baker who sponsored Exiles travel to the last two home games of last season against Barnet and Shrewsbury Town.

Several members took advantage of the trip to see the Bees and 15 members traveled for the last game of the season against the Shrews.

Thanks also to members Sue Choularton and David Evans for their driving on the day.

SPONSORED MATCH

23 members and friends joined us for our sponsored game against Wycombe Wanderers last season. We managed to keep up our unbeaten sponsorship record after seeing the Blues win 1-0 with a goal from man-of-the-match Stewart Drummond.

Thanks must go to Bob Gray and the staff at Deva Stadium for ensuring that the enjoyable day ran smoothly.

EXILES MEET THE PLAYERS/MANAGER 2005
Thanks to manager Keith Curle, his assistants and the players for agreeing to meet the Exiles at the team hotel the night before the Barnet match. Thanks also to commercial manager Bob Gray who organised the get together at very short notice following a suggestion from Exiles chairman Pauline Meakins at the recent fans Forum. The players mingled with members, chatted, signed autographs and posed for pictures before Keith Curle joined the delighted group for an hour long open Q&A session.

EXILES WIN THE CUP
Well done to the Chester City Exiles who won the inaugural APFSCIL 10-Pin Bowling Cup in Finsbury Park, north London. The team of six scored 816 and 880 in their two rounds to beat off 12 other supporters clubs to lift the title by over 200 points. As well as the team trophy the highest scoring individual award also went to Chester’s David McLoughlin, and if there had been a cheer leader trophy then his girlfriend Siobhan would have scooped that as well!

With the team finding themselves a player short close to ‘roll off’ a fax was hastily sent to Barrow supporters club where the loan services of David Leitch were secured at the last minute, thanks Dave!
