- We are moving towards formal recognition with the club on our terms. You cannot represent the fans and also dance to the tune of the club. It is a line that cannot be walked. Fan representation should not be a monopoly for any trust or cherry picked set of individuals. It is neither healthy nor productive and breeds distrust amongst fans. We will right that wrong.
