Members' Business Motion · S4M-00453 · Session 4
Supporting Supporters Direct
The motion
That the Parliament notes what it considers to be the outstanding assistance that Supporters Direct has given over recent years to football fans' trusts north and south of the border that have sought to take a more active role in the running of their clubs; recognises, in particular, its help for fans in Mid Scotland and Fife and across Scotland, including the Pars Supporters Trust and the Raith Supporters Trust; welcomes the fans' takeovers of clubs including Stirling Albion, Clyde FC, Clydebank and Dundee; deeply regrets the English Premier League's decision to cut funding for Supporters Direct's work in England; recognises the key role that the Scottish Ministers and the Scottish Football Association have with regard to the future success of Supporters Direct, and believes that cooperation will be required to ensure a continuation of the organisation's valuable work in Scotland for years to come.
