Queen’s Birthday Honours: Brian Burgess
Last week the Queen’s Birthday Honours were announced and included among them was a British Empire Medal for former-chair of Supporters Direct, one of the predecessor organisations of the FSA, and Brentford fan Brian Burgess.
Congratulating Brian on his award, chair of the FSA Malcolm Clarke said:
“We are delighted to congratulate Brian Burgess, former chair of Supporters Direct, one of the founding partners of the FSA, on the richly deserved award of The British Empire Medal in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list.
“Brian has made a great contribution to football over many years, including not only his leadership of Supporters Direct, but also through his work at Brentford FC, where he has been heavily involved in the development of the new ground. Well done Brian.”
