The Silk Pledge 2023/24

The SST are going to be running the Pledge again this season 2023/24. The aim of the scheme, like most of the Silkmen Supporters’ Trust activities, is to raise money to help Macclesfield F C and its fans. Last year we were able to generate over £1550 thanks to the participation and generosity of all our pledgers. Thank you so much for all of you who got involved. Most of our pledges are dependent on the club’s success on the pitch and obviously last season’s excellent results and ultimate promotion led to a bumper year for the Silk Pledge. Though I am sure that we all expect this season to be much tougher. 

The pledges are already coming in for the season ahead.  

For those who haven’t got involved before, here’s your opportunity. It’s a fun way to help the trust directly related to the actual performance on the pitch. We do hope you can join in.

This is how it works:

We ask you the supporters, to pledge amounts e.g £0.10, £0.25, £0.50, £1.00 or more under various headings such as clean sheets, various players scoring goals, team goals, team points, team wins, penalties scored and saved, promotion and any other sensible pledges which you think are fun to make. The more ‘bizarre’ the better – but only as long as I can keep a track of it! Of course, we also will expect the regular pledges for Alty defeats (always a pleasure to see this doing well!)

All pledges will be based on 1^st team games in the League, FA Cup, and in the FA Trophy (unless you specify differently) and will run from the first league or Cup game of the season.

We will keep a track of the pledges throughout the season. Pledgers may have their name and details (not amounts ) of their pledges in the match programme and also on the SST website.
