Supporters meet with Premier League
This is a story from the FSF archive – the FSF and SD merged to become the FSA in 2019.
Supporter representatives from every top-flight club met with Premier League executives recently to discuss a range of issues – including TV impact on the fixture schedule.
The meeting took place under the auspices of the FSF and was attended by Premier League Chief Executive Richard Scudamore and other league officials.
Fan representatives from every Premier League club attended the meeting, drawn from the FSF’s network of democratically structured trusts and supporter groups, as well as some fanzines and activists.
This was the third meeting between fan organisations and the Premier League which followed Government recommendations on fan engagement. The first took place in July 2016.
Future meetings will take place on a bi-annual basis with the next one due to take place in March 2018.
The Premier League will also be producing its own notes from the meeting – these will be published shortly.
