Suggested Aims &
Objectives |
It is not the place of
a Steering Group to create Aims & Objectives which are 'cast in stone', we can
merely suggest those which we think meet supporters wishes and then, after
gaining the mandate from supporters at the open meeting, leave it in the hands
of the Working Party. It will be their job to establish the final Aims &
Objectives and the constitution.
But here are the Aims
& Objectives which we would like the Working Party to consider:
-
To
assist Sunderland Football Club to strengthen the bond between itself and
the community.
-
To
promote support for the Club by actively encouraging new supporters,
especially young people and families.
-
To
encourage the Club to take proper account of its supporters and community in
its decisions.
-
To
promote full, accountable and constructive involvement of the supporters in
the future direction of the Club.
-
To
develop links with supporters of other clubs to increase the constructive
influence of supporters and further the enjoyment of football for all fans.
-
To
actively oppose violence, racism and all other forms of discrimination both
within the supporters of the Club and in the community at large.
-
To
create an independent body with a formal voting structure to represent the
views of supporters.
-
To
raise money in order to support and achieve these objectives.
