FC United bar brushed up well thanks to HMG Paints

The latest stage of the partnership between HMG Paints and FC United is complete with the refurbishment of the St Mary’s Road End (SMRE) Bar floor at Broadhurst Park.

The bar, known for its unique display of club memorabilia and its vibrant community atmosphere, has been refreshed by staff and volunteers with a new grey finish using HMG’s Polyurethane Floor Paint.

The project is the latest phase of the club’s commitment to creating a welcoming and versatile space for fans, players, students and community groups.

The SMRE Bar painted in FC United’s traditional colours of red, black, and white, not only honours the club’s history but also provides a comfortable environment for fans to gather before and after games.

Beyond match days, the SMRE space serves a dual purpose. The far end can be isolated to create a classroom space for the FC United Academy, where young players continue their education before hitting the club’s 3G pitches.

Additionally, the versatile room is regularly used by community groups on both evenings, weekends and during school holidays, providing a safe and functional space for various activities.

Paul Haworth, FC United’s commercial manager, said: “Thanks to HMG Paints the floor looks great. The fresh flooring and updated paintwork across the bar adds a professional touch to the space, making it more inviting for fans, staff, students and community groups.”

James Burton of HMG Paints added: “It’s great to see the bar looking so good, and it’s a great showcase for Manchester and the community nature of the club. Supporters can enjoy the new look bar knowing the paint is made locally by fellow fans and enjoy a pint of Joseph Holt beer which is also brewed in Manchester. The integration between local people, businesses and the club are what helps make FC United such a special club and we’re proud to partner with them.”
