No, it’s all about inclusivity and safeguarding 🙄
Not only that but a certain (modern) type of inclusivity.

The needs of different fans are naturally going to be different. Someone in their teens or 20s who goes home and away is going to have different priorities to an elderly female who goes to two or three games.

We’re seeing it to an extent with moving the away end and introducing safe standing. For years there were fans who said this was needed but it was felt they were a minority. Now we’re doing it at a time when a lot of fans have aged and cannot stand or are being moved from people they’ve been with for a lot of years.

The club had an opportunity to put some younger, noisier fans on FAB originally as well as those from other groups and didn’t. They don’t ultimately want it anyway. So it simply becomes a box ticking exercise.

Not a direct criticism of the club btw. They no doubt feel they’re doing a good job and are mostly keeping a diverse fan base very happy. But a group without real power that only really ever talks about diversity is not only a bit pointless but an easy target for the Trumps of this world.

Mitoma flag?
Is that what the point of FAB is? I mean, anyone could do that in fairness. Are they going to have a pivotal voice in the moving of away fans and coordination of the South Stand? This needs to be the 'singing section'. Not the half empty day tripper section.

Sally Freedman seems qualified, at least one of the others is soulless, irrelevant AI waffle.
