A quote that actually doesn't say anything positive nor negative about communication at the club!
But apart from that, what have Swindon Town Football Club ever done for us?
Morfuni may or not be Vice Chairman.... we don't actually know, but he's right if you don't communicate people take their own view. At the time he was talking about moving the CG development forward, whilst he acknowledged patience my be required it's gone very quiet on that front for months now. GIven that the project requires fans to dip into their purses/wallets, you'd have thought there might have been a bit more proactivity. |

What a thread.
If we are ranked 92nd of 92 then the clubs a few spots above us must be holding nightly fans forums round supporters houses, with a free hand job thrown in for good measure

It's compiled by someone who came from Supporters Direct and was involved in AFC Wimbledon. It's not unreasonable to expect there to be a slant as a result, and Exeter coming out on top nails that as they are run by their fans. I'm not sure the methodology is available to scrutinise, but even if it were, we know it was shit for a while, nobody denies that.

They suggest that 3 key criteria are used.... face-to-face dialogue: fans forums, one-to-one relationships with supporters' trusts and fans' liaison meetings. 3 clubs apparently Port Vale, Gillingham and Swindon Town - did not carry out any regular communication with their fans. We know about Scally, Smurthwaite has gone and the new PV owners have started to put fan engagement at the heart of their remit, which may account for them having an improved season. |

They refused to lay on a limousine driven by Wellens whilst Power cleaned his shoes and Doyle answered his questions, on that basis Reg ain't going! Worrying lack of alcohol on some of those tables! |

That's like most of our fans. Low levels of English isn't it? Nice gesture though in seriousness.

Interesting post by Danny Lee, ticket office manager who's been very much at the heart of the club's community engagement push, showing the difference that's been made in 6 months: https://twitter.com/DannyLee___/status/1207057518079488004 |

Was just about to post the same thing. Speaks volumes for the efforts the Club have been making in the past few months. |

Danny Lee is the club's Supporter's Liason Officer (SLO) Having one is a charter requirement for EFL clubs... good to see he's doing his job. FiTC have been beavering away since 91 steadily building up an empire, whereby their staff both volunteers and paid do stuff with all ages of the community.... again this is an EFL requirement, and therefore monies have come from grants and sponsorships. FiTC has gone from having a container near the car park, to it's present nice shiny new home on the extension... it's certainly raised their profile and can reflect well on the club, despite it being independent. |
