KOTA KINABALU: United Malaysia, the country’s official Manchester United supporters club, will be holding its fifth annual dinner at the Hakka Hall Grand Ballroom here on June 9.
Back after a four-year hiatus, the event themed “United Unite: Still United”, is expected to draw some 1,000 members.
Organising chairman Fynn Floyd Wong urged footie fans, particularly those supporting Manchester United, to attend one of the biggest events for a football fan club in the country.
“We have not been able to organise the annual dinner for the last several years due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
“Hence, we are excited to have been afforded the opportunity to hold this much-anticipated celebration,” he said in a statement here on Saturday (March 18).
He added that various programmes were being planned for the annual dinner including the customary lucky raffle draw event which will see winners getting free trips to watch live games at Manchester United’s home turf Old Trafford.
Fynn said tickets priced at RM100, RM150 and RM200 will be available for purchase soon.
