Arising from the comprehensive Trust members survey last year, one thing we agreed to do was to produce a specification for what good ownership of a football club might look like. This proposal was supported by a large majority of members. So, we have drafted something. We recognise that this is a ‘gold standard’ of what supporters might be looking for and we are realistic enough to accept that all of it may not be deliverable in practice. Nonetheless we think it’s good to set out our objectives and start from a strong position. The specification serves as a useful reference point to test the actions of a current owner or the proposed actions of any new owner against.

A Good Owner will be able to demonstrate:

Fan Engagement

Community

Diversity

Business Strategy
