This is a story from the FSF archive – the FSF and SD merged to become the FSA in 2019.
The Community Shield will take place on Sunday – with thousands of fans descending on Wembley stadium as the football begins in earnest this weekend.
Many of you will be looking for a quick pint along the way and ahead of every major fixture local pubs are “split”. It’s important fans know which are “theirs”. The pubs may refuse entry to the “wrong” fans.
Please note the FSF doesn’t play any role in allocating pubs to specific sets of fans, the Met Police share this information and we believe it’s important fans know the lay of the land so they can make the most of their day.
East – Leicester City
West – Manchester United

Just under £10m worth of grants have been made available by the football authorities to help small non-league and community clubs get their pitches ready for football’s return.
Promotion of community-ownership is embedded within the FSA’s Mission Statement and something that we hold very dear, so we’re pleased to launch our updated Community Owned Clubs directory.
Almost £2.2m in grants is being made available by the Football Foundation to help non-league and community clubs get their facilities ready to host fans again.
