Fan Advisory Board Reprentatives - Results confirmed

[Citizen's Nephew]

He wasn't voted in by the club. He was voted in by a number of fans who wanted him there and thought he would be good at it. Who are you to decide who should or should not stand ? Casting doubt on one of the candidates impartiality is below the belt and childish.

I think you'll find I was very careful not to do either of those things. Just a concerned Citizen.

Would you enjoy going back to ‘the good old days’ then, when opposing fans could chuck vile insults and missiles at each other from close range ? I cant believe that anybody sensible would think this is a good idea. You only have to look what happened at West Brom last week to see how dangerous this could be. City have an excellent safety and disciplinary record inside the new stadium and long may it continue.

There won't be missiles being thrown back and forth, almost all clubs have the singing sections next to each other without any trouble. If you don't like it then sit somewhere else in the ground but why not give fans something called a "choice"

Plenty of teams have away fans and the “rowdy” home fans in adjacent sections of the stadium.

Teams that we play every year, yet we always seem to avoid starting riots and taking hostages.

Football hooliganism hasn’t died out because of rearranged seating plans. It’s died out because it’s much better policed, punishments are much harsher and football itself has because much more of a family event.

How come there was trouble at The Hawthorns at the opposite end from the Wolves fans. Dear God you’re fluent in utter bollocks. There’s been trouble with away fans in the Canton Stand at CCS even though the away fans section is in the Grange End.

so what's the latest/updates with the fans advisory representative Board ?

The 10 members voted in met earlier this month after the voting closed (the sponsor put forward by the club wasn`t there but was invited).Club director Steve Borley was there as were nearly all the club`s heads of departments. This gave us an opportunity to outline how the FAB will work, what it it will do and what it won`t do in order to deal with strategic issues ahead of a formal meeting which should be held some time next month .Also to go through the Memorandum Of Understanding , Confidentiality Agreement and Code of Conduct. These are formal documents which both the club and the FAB are obliged to sign.

Before the PNE game we met as a group with the three working directors of the club called at short notice by club Chair and also attended by and some senior club employees. It was called as an informal meeting but it gave the chance for FAB members to raise issues such as upcoming season ticket prices and the price and (lack of) quality of the food and beverage offerings at the stadium. An undertaking was given by the club to discuss the former with the FAB and to investigate , examine and report back to the FAB on the latter. The sponsor FAB member was again not present.

A further FAB meeting is set for Thursday of this week where we will elect a Chair and Vice Chair, get all the formal documents agreed for signing and start setting the agenda for the first formal meeting with the club, focusing on the key strategic issues for fans.

Thanks for update

We currently communicate via a Whatsapp link as a group. We are looking at the best means of communicating and updating the fans who elected us going forward and may have a decision on this as early as this week`s meeting

Yes 2 people stood independently, but surely it’s proportionally wrong to have 4 Supporters Club Committee on the FAB board.

Any voting will be lob sided

After nominating the 2 to be on, why were well known fans allowed to compete with genuine candidates ?
