Mike Dunstan Memorial Match
UPDATED 16 July 2023
A huge thank you to those who came to support the Mike Dunstan Memorial Match and raise money for AMMF at the TigerTurf Stadium yesterday. Congratulations especially to the fans and City Legends who braved hail and wind to play! Particular thanks to Mike's family for joining us at the game and presenting the trophy at the end of the game - it was lovely to be able to welcome you back and to let you know how much Mike meant to all of us at Gloucester City. We'll update on the final amount raised in due course but it was a very worthwhile occasion.
A reminder that the TigerTurf Stadium is hosting a double-header match this Saturday 15th July with a noon kick-off for the Mike Dunstan Memorial Match between Gloucester City Fans and Gloucester City Legends in memory of our late friend Mike Dunstan OBE. The charity fundraising game is then followed by the pre-season friendly match Gloucester City vs Bracknell Town at 3pm.
Admission prices for the dual match which will be raising money for AMMF, the UK's only cholangiocarcinoma charity, will be:
Adults £10, Concessions £5, Under 11’s free of charge with a paying adult. Tickets can now be bought online here from the club website.
Mike, who sadly passed away aged 58 last year, was a lifelong supporter and former Club and Trust Chairman who was deeply loved and respected within the club and by all who knew him. His contribution to the club throughout decades of volunteering was immense, and we are pleased to be donating all proceeds from the event to the AMMF - the UK's only cholangiocarcinoma charity.

Jack Dunstan, Mike's son, said :
"When the idea of a Legends vs Supporters match was presented to me, I thought it was a great idea but being asked if it could be in honour of Dad was amazing and I couldn't have accepted quick enough. Doing a great event for a charity close to the family also means a lot to us but is unsurprising as everyone knows just how great the Club and Supporters Trust are when it comes to organising these wonderful ideas."
It's hard to put into words just how much Mike meant to the club, and how much the club meant to Mike. He was a wonderful person who loved the club and worked tirelessly for it, and we are honoured to be able to arrange this event in his memory."
