Maybe a minor one but why are nearly all

the blokes in suits?

That in itself I feel is a bad starting point for folk who are there to represent the full fanbase.

Not a single stone island badge in sight. 
 

waste of ****ing time

[lcfcfem]

Does anyone know any of them?  I don’t recognise any of them - home or away. I don’t want to make assumptions but that photo doesn’t seem to look like fans for fans.

I may have missed it but did any of them mention wanting to improve the atmosphere.

Graham Smith is chair of Foxes Pride. I recognise the bloke with curly hair, I think he works at Leicester University.

[VLC86]

Not sure about the third instalment in the Knives Out franchise.

[Nolucklcfc]

Like how they said “potential introduction of safe standing” just ****ing get on with it man 

[davieG]

All seem very middle class, not intending to be patronising and not even sure how to describe what I mean but where's your average joe (M/F) 'shop floor' person who's just goes to enjoy the football on and off the pitch with mates or family. It seems like their job roles has got them appointed.

Yeah on the application but of course that was stripped out from the press release. 

[Jobyfox]

Is this thread going to point out every single community that’s not represented within the photo?

 

Ok

 

Where is the disabled person? …. And … they all look very heterosexual

Few references to some of them being “Directors” in their own field. Trying not to be judgemental here but that’s not exactly a broad cross section

[Corky]

Is Paul Angrave related to Harry Angrave, a legendary fan from 20-odd years ago? Think he was the oldest season ticket holder in the country or something at one point.

[Izzy]

Thunderbirds are go!

[Phil Mitchell]

Why is Alfie Haaland on the committee?

[Ashley]

I don't think all the lads being in suits or shirt jumper combo gives off the right impression. 

 

I thought the message/the whole point of this group was to get fans on their side and get valid points across? Doesn't give me this caters for every fan impression here. 

 

I'm glad Emily is on the board though, she has abit about her and will put points across. Good appointment. 

[jammie82uk]

I can see a theme 

 

 

Emily believes in creating a safe and welcoming environment for all

 

Graeme is a Season Ticket Holder of 25 years, has frequently worked with the Club to promote inclusivity and representation

 

Jo wants to help improve communication between the Club and its diverse fanbase.

 

Paul, is dedicated to strengthening the bond between the Club and its diverse community.

 

Ravi is an avid Leicester City fan, who believes the Club’s role in fostering diversity and community spirit. With a background as a director in the financial sector, Ravi aims to use his experience to improve fan engagement, increase access, and represent a diverse range of supporters on the Fans Advisory Board.
