Football Supporters's Federation Policing/Stewarding Survey

[The FSF]

Hello all

My first post on here. I'm Amanda Jacks and work as a case worker for the FSF. My role includes providing legal advice to fans who may have found themselves arrested and helping supporters who may need to make a complaint to either the police or football clubs. I also work with the police to help improve match day policing and while balancing the two roles can sometimes be tricky, my work with fans is in no way compromised by my work with the police.

I've recently compiled a survey into matchday policing and stewarding to help me better undertand the views of supporters and also assist in deciding where best to focus my efforts next season.

It's 40 questions long and entirely anonymous. I'd be very grateful if you could spend 10/15 minutes filling it in:

Any questions, please feel free to ask.

Thank you.

Amanda

Can our resident bin dipper vouch for you?

[The FSF]

I'm real and geniune, honestly! Google my name and the FSF and you'll see that.

Thanks to those who've completed the survey so far. Ideally, I'd like at least 100 fans from each club to complete it and Bolton fans are someway short. Clearly, I can't make anybody fill it in, but if you did it really will assist us in many ways.

Done.

Good luck with your efforts, seems like worthwhile stuff. A cursory search of the internet seems to show some pretty unappreciative Sheffield Wednesday fans. Hope that incident got sorted ok.

How can I answer questions on Championship Stewarding at away gorounds - not been to any in the Championship for 11 years.

You watch too much Peter Kay..................

Technically, we've never been in it: yon name was only instituted in 2004...

Magnificent hair-splitting of which Bish would be proud.

Meanwhile, before we bother replying to Amanda .... can we demand a photo ??

Presumably Worthy phrased his own answer carefully ("...in the Championship") because he knows we went to second-tier teams for cup games during our top-flight odyssey. He just didn't want to show off by naming the five we visited during that time. (Answers on a post, not a postcard, please.)

Watford, Millwall, Norwich ..........

Well, you are all wrong! Ewood and Molyneux are both 'grounds in the Championship'. Whyifankyou.

[Hoboh]

filling this in is like Turkeys voting for Christmas

Paging Erin McKean...

Bruce, when did we play at Norwich in a cup? If we did, I missed it and we did six, not five, second-tier visits during our top-flight spell.

[Prufrock]

Not my fault that Brummies cannot spell !

DSB, are we talking teams that were second tier when we went there?

Are Walsall one? We seemed to go there every fecking year and they were second tier for a bit. Donnie were when we went I think.

Yeah, second-tier when we were top-tier (this last spell, couldn't be arsed checking the 90s cameos)

My research – somewhat rushed, possibly wrong – turned up nary a Walsall nor a Donny (or for that matter a Norridge)

Sorry, man. Ipswich, not Norwich

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Ding! In that case you've got three of the last four (in reverse chronology: Millwall, ?????, Watford, Ipswich).

The missing one's obvious, but the first one's so obtuse that I might as well give it now: Stockport in 2001/02. Yep, they went from tier two to non-league in a decade, with four bottom-placed relegations and even time for a play-off promotion in 2008. Shows how far they've come...

[Prufrock]

Burnley last year? And I was going to guess Stockport but went with Walsall instead !

[bobo the clown]

But is Amanda fit ????

[Prufrock]

I dunno, but, she too has been up Back Henry Street :O
