+MrDarragh123456789 Any club in the top 11 tiers can play in the FA Cup. FC United have made the First Round proper on several occasions and got to the Second Round once. Shows how much you know about non league.
As a football fan I am sick of a game that is increasingly bloated by crazy money and totally warped perspectives and its features like this that remind me why I love the sport. Well done Copa90!
I never thought id say this but i think were so lucky in Ireland to have two two league where no-one in Ireland gives a fuck about including the fai . The premier division and the first division are leagues which are similar in quality to league two but facilities and grounds are like 70's football standards! I love it , give Galway United a follow on facebook , twitter , snapchat , Instagram there lads!
are you Ok? say what you want, you'll be forever a secluded, nothing keyboard-moaner, and humans like Lewandowski / Suarez / Neymar will be part of Greatness
@@netweed09 Greatness is fleeting. Say what you want, you'll be forever a fan of plastic and these people will have football they can be proud of forever.
@@LordZontar Lol, calm yourself kid; I'm an Arsenal fan for over 25 years and for life and haven't seen a Major trophy for over 15 of those now. Well, 'those' people can do what they want - but then Dortmund were once largely fan driven and so are Eibar and FC St Pauli and they're all the Top Divisions of their Leagues. There's one thing being passionate, loyal and ambitious, and the other being a zealous partisan idiot nobody outfit
@@netweed09 And who says FCUM is an "idiot nobody outfit"? You? Because they're not big like Arsenal? And just what makes you passionate for Arsenal? What makes you live and die with the club even though it's floundering in the middle of the Premiership table and hasn't won major silverware in more than a decade? Well, that's why the FCUM fans are committed to their side, for the same emotional reasons. It doesn't matter that they're not in the top flight. It's the club they found a connection with. Same as you found your connection to the Gunners and will stick with them even if they fall through the lower divisions. Because they're your side, and a true supporter sticks with his side no matter what. I know what that's like. I grew up with a local NFL team that knew nothing but losing seasons year after year after year when nothing seemed to work. But they were my team and I stuck with them even through those appalling years of endless misery, of being the joke of the league, when four wins was considered a "good" season. And that's why you are committed to Arsenal and the FCUM fans are committed to their side. Once a team really hooks you in the heart, there's little else you can do.
I grew up in Manchester hating Man Utd but I absolutely love what they are doing at FC United of Manchester. What a great thing they've got. Makes my hairs stand up hearing that 'This is our club' chant. Great stuff.
that little clip of the stand at @7:10 is a brilliant picture, what english football used to be, terraced stand packed to the brim, flags, chanting noise, and what do we have now, soulless stadiums where we're not allowed to sing, big respect to FCUM, even though im tottenham would love to come up and experience the atmosphere one day, get a proper old school feel which due to my age i never got, even though my family got it, jealous
I like that there is a bit more documentaries on english football storied now on copa90 than before when it was just loads of eastern european derbies that came about from politics
to be able to their own ground without any investment from rich businessmen or the council, all from fan given donations is very impressive to be honest. Even when they were in the 10th tier of English football, most of the players had a song sung about them. To be playing at that level and having as many 6,000 singing your name must have been surreal
You hardly get 2000 let alone 6000 , see what Stockport county had done were the most supported football club in the non league except Tranmere , and scfc are in the league below them national league north !
Jake O'Hara Hardly a good atmosphere, Salford have very little fans and they had to steal half the players from a team in the league above to get promoted...
Ciaran Hughes You can't just frigging create a derby mate... Best non-league derby?!!!!! They haven't even played each other once yet so how does that constitute a derby? Or are you a Salford fan looking for a derby?
Honestly Copa90, the editors and directors and the team of these sorta documentaries deserve much more credit than they're receiving. Huge credits to Copa, the editor of the documentary, the director and the rest of the team, keep it going guys, because we appreciate it.
I'm an American from Philadelphia, and I never really paid much attention to football. However, I've been on a huge COPA90 kick lately. The videos are really well made, capturing both personal perspective of the fans and the atmosphere at matches. COPA90 has made me a soccer (football) fan!
Do a documentary on Hinckley AFC, used to be called Hinckley United but this absolute arsehole took over and made the club go in debt and eventually we folded 😔 but last year Hinckley AFC was created and in their first season they had a 26 game unbeaten run and a finished 3rd in their league, we also get about 200 fans each game which is great for our league because we are in the Midland League Division One. Thanks for reading.... I hope we'll see you guys down at one of our games soon.
Hello from Portugal SL Benfica is with FC United of Manchester! Thanks for that ovation that you made to my club in your stadium. You are real fans, like we are
This is true love about a football team.People nowadays only support teams like barca and real and bayern.But those people in the video really know what is true love and faith in a football team.These are very good fans.
fc grew to be one of my favourite clubs in a matter of minutes. went to visit just to check it off the bucket list and after buying a bucket hat from the shop they offered me a free tour around the ground. won't forget it 👌🏻
Zlatko Edgar Football is a business nowadays. The owners came in 2005 and they stopped supporting the club. Many fans now still don't like the Glazers but they still support the club that they grew up supporting
Andy Torreto Strange logic there. Id like to see you call these fans plastic to their face, especially the old school man united lot from 70s/80s, see what reaction you get.
One of the best examples of fan power in football. Man United became a glamorous brand rather than an honest club, you can't blame some of the fans for wanting their old united back, massive congratulations to everyone involved.
Great club and I have followed them since last season but I'm not from near Manchester I support a team called spennymoor town fc who are 2 leagues below this great non league club. Good luck this upcoming season to everyone at FC United of Manchester.
Brilliant video and brilliant team. It gives me some comfort to see at Least one football team who actually care about their fans an not just the money they take from them.
My team, Hereford FC (formerly Hereford United FC) are going through something similar. It's more what AFC Wimbledon have done really but similar to FC United of Manchester in building a team from scratch and starting low in the league system.
I think we're giving you a bit of guidance along with AFC Wimbledon in terms of how to structure yourselves as a club. Fantastic to have a team with your history join the fan owned ranks, it's the future of football!
joshfcum Definitely. Look at German football and how everything over there is better in every way to British football. Portsmouth are also fan owned now and it's great that so many teams in England are proving how it can work very easily. Especially with financial fair play it will become a lot easier for us too!
These lads played a friendly against Detroit City FC (U.S./4th div.) last summer. It was an honor hosting such an inspiring club. My favorite club in Manchester!
Its crazy how every Copa Story has the theme of family... Football is family, and its crazy to think of all the memories and how meaningless it is without others to celebrate and enjoy or cry or be ashamed with. Sometimes the only thing in life that brings clarity, for 90 mins its only one goal and thats it.
FC United are due tonnes of respect. I can't see anywhere else achieving what they have. I have enjoyed watching them and Im an LUFC fan. I know Ill get ripped for mentioning that We Are Leeds, Leeds, Leeds. Marching On Together!
I bought the FC United of Manchester scarf at the store, because what you did is a beautiful fairy tale. I live in Italy and my team, SPAL has returned to Serie A after 49 years. I wish also to you power to go that far, because dreams never end ...
Love this, Fcum 2nd best fan owned club behind the beloved Portsmouth of course, definitely some similarities in the atmosphere and family feel of the club
great video copa, we need more of this back in the UK again. football for the real fans. it would be good if you made a video showing people how they can go about doing something like this in there own area.
Love the fan passion and I hope they continue too grow in the future. Also if they eventually climb the mountain and get to the upper tiers they do not forget the reason why the club was founded in the first place.
Two Uniteds but The Soul is One. I respect them as a club, but I will never stop supporting Manchester United. I couldn't do it. Has meant too much for too long. In Germany this type of fan ownership is in the equivalent of The Championship. The future of football is fans, the past belonged to the fans, and so should the present.
Live near workington went to see them play against fc united. They brought up around 2500 fans to an evostik league game and they were as loud as any premier league club they look like a great club and good luck to them in the future
The club was made as a protest club against the glazers and modern football. Football clubs nowadays have ticket prices that working class people can't afford and owners who don't care about the fans. We don't hate Manchester United we hate the glazers. Two uniteds but the soul is one. You'll find that some FC fans still support man utd but won't give any money to the glazers.
+Nordic Countries are the best the green and gold protest against the glazers didn't start until 2010, five years after the takeover and the formation of FC
+Nordic Countries are the best you don't understand, the colours green and gold weren't associated with glazer before 2010. They wanted to keep a "United" feel, red black and white
Hate Manchester United & City, but if i lived locally could easily see myself going along to see these guys, grassroots footballs where its at, where it's still about the football and the fans, not just about the money. I wish the Prem could be more like this, with more fan owned teams, instead of foreign investors that don't give a fuck about the history or meaning of the club just there own profits. And before anyone tells me that it's not possible, just look at the Bundesliga where most of the clubs (who are outperforming ours in Europe as of recent) are completely fan owned, their terraces are full of impassioned fans because they have a real say in their clubs making them feel more connected and just makes a nicer vibe
It was less of a one day thing, it had started in the mid nineties when fans were told to sit down apart from in moments of excitement at an arsenal game. It caused a massive uproar and led to the formation of supporters groups like IMUSA and MUST. The slow decline in atmospheres, the increases in ticket prices, kick off times being moved at a minutes notice, sky's poisoning influence and the complete lack of relation to the players or the club, Glazer was just the straw that broke the camels back. It's a common misconception that everyone hates United at FC. That's not true, we just will never pay another penny to the glazers as we believe it's a penny more towards the money hungry businessmen who've taken over our game. We've got something that's ours, something that we are in control of. It's a scale, some will never support united again and believe United doing badly is better because it means less money for the glazers, some still are season ticket holders at OT and come to fc games for the atmosphere. Others like myself, and I believe the vast majority of fans, support United, want them to do well, but FC is our club now.
Prolix8 if you ever went to an FC match on a day that Utd were on the tv before or after kick off, you'd notice that the pubs are rammed, with people who still support Utd. no one stopped supporting Utd, they just chose not to be a part of the disease that is modern 'top flight' football. as the italians say, No Al Calcio Moderno. all we need in this country is for the bubble to burst, just as it did in the once booming Serie A. then clubs will start treating people like fans again, and not customers. maybe.
"We're pieces of a jigsaw that don't fit into anyone else's puzzle."
What a beautiful way to describe a football family.
Programs £2.50 each OR two for a fiver? *What a great deal!*
one of the best deals of all time
even better, 3 for £7.50
bad to the appendix 10 for £25
better deal then Balotelli to Liverpool! Banter!
Emrah Takar lol
I'm a Liverpool fan and I like FCUM, because of what they stand for, anti owners, anti sky
You mustn't be a loyal Liverpool fan then..,
HAHA! Why? For liking a team that oppose ownership and Sky?
Fahy TT, being a fan and blind rage are different things
***** Regardless of fan affiliation, good to know we're admired the world over.

Imagine Man united vs FC United of Manchester in the FA cup.. It would be sick
Mightn't happen soon because at the moment I think FCUM are in the vase or trophy
And the half final would be man city fcum

Me too.
I'm a Liverpool fan, and got emotional watching this. So much passion. So much love for football. Done in the right way.
I'm the, or one of the, New Zealand founder members and I'm proud of what FC United have become

Fc are very political. Too far left for me though
to be able to their own ground without any investment from rich businessmen or the council, all from fan given donations is very impressive to be honest. Even when they were in the 10th tier of English football, most of the players had a song sung about them. To be playing at that level and having as many 6,000 singing your name must have been surreal

few pointers there mate, they took out a massive loan from the council to build it and they get barely 2,000 anymore.
I think they rushed themselves into building that stadium
You hardly get 2000 let alone 6000 , see what Stockport county had done were the most supported football club in the non league except Tranmere , and scfc are in the league below them national league north !
Wrexham and Lincoln both get more than County.
Sky stole the soul! This is proper football
A friendly against benfica? Fc United have come a long way in a short period.
Fantastic to watch this.
It was huge for them, annoyingly though it was Benfica's B team
Aidin Lauder Benfica's first team had a cup final game that day.
Aidin Lauder yes it was benficas b team that beat man citys b team
mikeyxbox it was benfica reserves we lost 1-0
Have a look at Salford city vs fc united next time they play... Best non-league derby
That will be a good game and atmosphere. So will when Stockport county play them, most of our fans despise fcum
Jake O'Hara Hardly a good atmosphere, Salford have very little fans and they had to steal half the players from a team in the league above to get promoted...
Ciaran Hughes You can't just frigging create a derby mate... Best non-league derby?!!!!! They haven't even played each other once yet so how does that constitute a derby? Or are you a Salford fan looking for a derby?

Yeah Wrexham vs Chester is a proper non league derby
So refreshing to see a brand supporting a project that's giving REAL fans a platform to share REAL football stories - kudos Hyundai!

Respect from Germany

They're plastic fans kind of as they've stopped supporting man united becuase they didn't like the Glazers.
No because they like real football and not the buisness football ManU stands for

Thomas Draddy I know FFT. Decent magazine but I wouldn't read it tbh
The best video so far on copa90 by me. Its was amazing to see FC United play like the old clubs on the 80s.

not trying to start an argument but at today's match they said Leeds were shit
Man, memories here, used to go to every game as a kid when they still played at gigg lane, united! united! united!
Absolutely love this story! It's so refreshing to see a club succeed and grow with and because of their fans. Great work Copa90!!
FCUM came to the States, a few years back. They played a friendly against my club (Detroit City FC). Wishing them all the success they deserve.
DCFC is one of the few organically made clubs here in the states, which is something we desperately need more of.
FC United chants are one of a kind too, they are bringing the true origin of football back to the game

FC United of Manchester > MAN CITY
Haha true
That means fc United of Manchester are better than Man united as well
Cian OSullivan (R4WR) Man United won the most recent derby. So, no. You're logic is deniable.
sankara760 But Man City finished higher are you gonna say that Spurs are better than Chelsea because they won against them.
sankara760 Your logic is deniable winning one game doesn't make you better than a team. Are Juventus better than Real Madrid?
Love this club, close to my heart, supported them since they were founded and they have a better atmosphere then Manchester United
Live near workington went to see them play against fc united. They brought up around 2500 fans to an evostik league game and they were as loud as any premier league club they look like a great club and good luck to them in the future
Gotta give a round of applause for workington, AFC Telford fan
Fantastic club, was there when they brought about 1000 down to pokey little Stourbridge. Best of luck to them!
Their fans were brilliant when they played away to Torquay in the FA trophy. Brilliant fans, we were very lucky to win that day as well!
And there is the passion and love that made football
Saw FC Manchester play Cammel Laird on Wirral as Tranmere fan . This was years ago. Played very well
So proud that Benfica was part of that amazing event.
I went to a FCUM game once. Pretty good atmosphere, the team has great potential, can't wait to see them in 10 years!
You didn't cover why this club was made and what they have against man united but great video anyway.
The club was made as a protest club against the glazers and modern football. Football clubs nowadays have ticket prices that working class people can't afford and owners who don't care about the fans. We don't hate Manchester United we hate the glazers. Two uniteds but the soul is one. You'll find that some FC fans still support man utd but won't give any money to the glazers.

New fan & owner from usa lets go
The only thing I don't get is why FCUM don't play with green and gold shirts.
Why would they?
PTS82 Because it's the colours of Newton Heath and the colours we wear against the glazers?
+Nordic Countries are the best the green and gold protest against the glazers didn't start until 2010, five years after the takeover and the formation of FC
PTS82 Yeah but still, this club was started as a protest against glazers and therefore I think their shirts should be green and gold.
+Nordic Countries are the best you don't understand, the colours green and gold weren't associated with glazer before 2010. They wanted to keep a "United" feel, red black and white
Huge respect from a Red Star fan.
very great management they had... can make club just based on supporter at the very beginning
As a Manchester City FC fan I am so, so happy to hear that ***** is also a City fan.
I’m gonna support these guys now that Manchester united are joining the european super league. I’m done with these big corporates destroying football.

Hate Manchester United & City, but if i lived locally could easily see myself going along to see these guys, grassroots footballs where its at, where it's still about the football and the fans, not just about the money. I wish the Prem could be more like this, with more fan owned teams, instead of foreign investors that don't give a fuck about the history or meaning of the club just there own profits.
And before anyone tells me that it's not possible, just look at the Bundesliga where most of the clubs (who are outperforming ours in Europe as of recent) are completely fan owned, their terraces are full of impassioned fans because they have a real say in their clubs making them feel more connected and just makes a nicer vibe

Amazing
This is truly grassroots football,well done everyone at FCUM!
Good documentary, still not 100% convinced on how you can one day decide to stop supporting your team and create another one...
Prolix8 Circumstances, these fans don't like modern football and how the game of football has been developed into the business of football.
Prolix8 A couple of sleepless nights and then going with your conscience /wallett
It was less of a one day thing, it had started in the mid nineties when fans were told to sit down apart from in moments of excitement at an arsenal game. It caused a massive uproar and led to the formation of supporters groups like IMUSA and MUST. The slow decline in atmospheres, the increases in ticket prices, kick off times being moved at a minutes notice, sky's poisoning influence and the complete lack of relation to the players or the club, Glazer was just the straw that broke the camels back. It's a common misconception that everyone hates United at FC. That's not true, we just will never pay another penny to the glazers as we believe it's a penny more towards the money hungry businessmen who've taken over our game. We've got something that's ours, something that we are in control of. It's a scale, some will never support united again and believe United doing badly is better because it means less money for the glazers, some still are season ticket holders at OT and come to fc games for the atmosphere. Others like myself, and I believe the vast majority of fans, support United, want them to do well, but FC is our club now.
Prolix8 if you ever went to an FC match on a day that Utd were on the tv before or after kick off, you'd notice that the pubs are rammed, with people who still support Utd.
no one stopped supporting Utd, they just chose not to be a part of the disease that is modern 'top flight' football.
as the italians say, No Al Calcio Moderno.
all we need in this country is for the bubble to burst, just as it did in the once booming Serie A. then clubs will start treating people like fans again, and not customers. maybe.
I havent! 2 Uniteds 1 soul! #fcum #mufc #mufcum #luhg
