The Football Fans Census

The Football Fans Census is an independent and neutral forum where individual football fans can join each other in putting across their opinions on a wide range of issues.

The FFC is an ongoing research project through which individual fan opinion’s can be presented together - recognising unity as well as highlighting differences - to command attention from those who influence the game.

The FFC listens to football fans to cover issues that are important to them and works with decision makers in the game to help them understand fans opinions. The FFC acts as a communication channel between the football industry and football supporters and helps ensure fans views are incorporated into decision making.

Mission Statement

To provide an independent and neutral forum for football fans that is both an information resource and a platform enabling them to communicate opinion on issues related to the game.

Why do we need the FFC?

The modern world of football has become increasingly professional; this has brought changes that have allowed clubs, players, the media, corporate business and even the government to effectively court the mass interest of the nation's fans.

Fans are the most important stakeholder in the footballing community, without them there would be no demand, crowd, audience, readership or custom. Ultimately it is fan money and passion that underwrites the game and we need an effective way to collate and disseminate fan opinion.

Fans are the lifeblood of football, therefore, fans opinions and interests need to be at the heart of the game's decision-making processes.

How do we work?

The Football Fans Census canvasses fans using surveys, polls and feedback. This is an ongoing process from fan registration on the site through the continual use of it. The FFC researches fan views and will faithfully communicate these to the relevant decision-makers and influencers in the game.

Who are we?

The Football Fans Census was started by two supporters who simply thought that the game of football would be much better off if the decision-makers and influencers were aware of what the fans thought.
