Ken Barnes
Posted on July 14th, 2010 No commentsYesterday at 2 30pm Ken Barnes passed away.Ken was associated with the club for over 40 years as a player,assistant manager and chief scout.
Ken was an integral part of the famous “Revie plan” that swept the blues to successive cup finals in 1955 (lost to Newcastle 3 1
and in 1956 when they beat Birmingham 3 1.
Christened “the best uncapped wing half in England by no less a player than Denis Law who was befriended by Ken when he arrived at City from Huddersfield.I would like on behalf of all Failsworthblues to extend our sincere condolences to Kens family
and to say to true blue legend R.I.P. Ken -

membership
Posted on July 4th, 2010 No commentsThe membership of the Failsworth blues at the end of season 2009/2010 stood at 266. This figure was reached after 3 years of hard work by the new and dedicated committe. When the new commitee was formed in July 2007 the membership stood at just 56, events were organised and well supported, the landlord and landlady Neil and Sarah were happy to assist in any way they could and the result is there for all to see.The AGM on the 5th July 2010 is your chance to either renew or join as a new member and help the supporters club reach even greater heights.Make no mistake your commitee will work tirelessly to ensure that Failsworth blues will always be among the best supported supporters clubs in the history of MCFC
