Manchester United Supporter’s Club Malta and the 50th anniversary celebrations sub-committee are proud to announce that a crew from MUTV (Manchester United Television) will be in Malta in the coming days.

All the material will be eventually edited into a feature about Malta and the supporters club which is to be aired to its millions of viewers all around the world.

This is yet another proud first for the local supporters’ branch of Manchester United. It is also a unique and exclusive opportunity for other supporters around the world to learn more about the Malta supporters club, which is Manchester United’s oldest and largest officially recognised supporters’ club in the world. The event also forms part of the preparations for the grand celebrations which are to be held next year, the 50th anniversary of the supporters club.   As part of the filming for the MUTV feature a special event is being organised for the general public.
