Charlton Athletic has launched its Advisory Board (CAB) as part of a new framework for the club to engage with its supporters and other stakeholders.
Charlton aspires to become 'the most cohesive and sustainable community-driven club in the UK competing at an elite level'. The club has spent recent months meeting with relevant stakeholders to determine a new fan engagement strategy that will give all supporters - both existing and new - the opportunity to play their part in the club's future and growth.
It will have a key role in protecting the proud heritage of the football club, shaping its fan engagement and using its advanced community development strategy to widen and diversify the fanbase.
The strategy, which has included consultation with the Football Supporters’ Association, incorporates:
An Advisory Board, to include elected supporters and other key independent stakeholders
Fan Advocate Role (formerly known as Fan Adviser), representing fans on day-to-day operational matters
Bi-annual online Fan Meetings with Charlton Athletic Directors, allowing every fan the opportunity to put their questions direct to the club's decision-makers
Bi-annual Supporter Forum meetings to give fan representatives the opportunity to feedback on operational opportunities for improvement and development - next event Thursday, November 14th at The Valley led by the Fan Advocates
Working groups to be set up, with club and supporter representatives to drive forward key projects e.g. the recently established Club Shop Merchandise Working Group
Supporters can continue to liaise with the club on day-to-day matters through Charlton’s Supporter Liaison Officer Lisa Squires or by emailing fans@cafc.co.uk

I've actually thrown my hat in the ring for this. I am working in this arena now, and I love this football club with all my heart, so if I'm deemed suitable I would do my utmost to advocate for the fan base and to see how we can improve all round. UTA

Have some ideas for the club (on the operations side you could suggest) Keep half and half scarfs for women games (I have seen other stadiums use them, so understand they have a use marketing wise), more communication about new stuff in the club shop (sent them an email the other day no reply). Better communication around tickets (I only received my tickets via the post after the Exeter game) if they want me to come to the ground to collect them then don't say you are going to post them.
Don't like the way they market women games. They took away the complimentary ticket away from the men season ticket holders. I understand this might be due to cost, however there is no benefit (in terms of collecting points) in me buying a season ticket and away tickets to a women's game. Charlton games should be Charlton games and there should be the same benefit system for the women and the men.

Cant think of anyone better for it mate. Proper chatlton and young-ish (well compared to the usual fan reps - and that's no offence at all meant to those people who have done excellent work over the years).
Don't know about the selection process but let me know if you need anything in supporting your nomination...

As an inveterate meat eater... I'm always in favour of diversity of choice! But no specific stance from me. The position's described as one not for putting forth personal views, but for representing fan opinions.
Obviously applications have just opened so no idea if I'll even be shortlisted but I'd like to hope I get to have a chat with people at least!
