Why is the Trusts Supporters Director not on the panel?

Also, why are 2 of the 5 members from Supporters Direct? What can they had to the night re Notts County Football Club?

Gavin,

The message does say "will include", the panel line may change slightly yet.

All the Trusts Directors will be there, and you will be able to ask questions of them if you want I'm sure. 4 or 5 is the usual number for a forum panel, any more and it starts to look like a communist party convention.

I think we are very lucky to have Phil and Kevin from Supporters Direct joining us for the forum. Rather than put words in their mouth I passed your question on to them. Here's the reply:-

quote:
Notts County Supporters Trust is part of a network of over 150 trusts nationally, and Supporters Direct always likes to take the opportunity to listen and speak to individual trust members. We also play an important role nationally in representing the views of trusts and trust members in our relationships with the FA and governing bodies.

We have fed in to major reviews such as that carried out of the FA by Lord Burns, and without spending time listening to the very people we exist to represent we would be missing out on valuable knowledge and information.


Phil is the Chief-Executive at Supporters Direct, and former Director of Public Policy for the FA Premier League and Kevin is the person there who is our allotted caseworker and is very familiar with the Trust.

Will you be going to the forum Gavin?

Unfortunately not, midweek is not good for me.

Although tbh, as someone who does not agree with supporter ownership of football clubs, Im not sure how welcome my opinions would be at the forum.

That's a shame.
It's an open forum, everyone is welcome.

For future events, would it not be an idea to try get a rep from FSF too(if this hasnt already been tried), instead of 2 from SD?

It's point to consider. We aren't affiliated to the FSF though, but we are members of Supporters Direct.

If people did want to hear from the FSF i'm sure we would invite them.

The FSF and SD do work together, particularly in relation to the recently acquired seat on the FA Council.
