#StructuralRelationships- The Irish Supporters Network(ISN), IRELAND

Founded in 2013, the Irish Supporters Network (ISN) brings together the growing number of member-run clubs, supporters’ trusts, and fan organisations in the Republic of Ireland. Two of its main objectives are to promote fan ownership in Irish football and to give guidance and support to anyone seeking it. The ISN serves a dual purpose: It supports cooperative football clubs such as Cork City FC, Finn Harps FC, Galway United F.C. and Cobh Ramblers FC, as well as supporters groups that are (or are trying to be) proactively involved within their football club.

In 2012, the ISN started activities informally based on the common need of proactive fan inclusion. Since then. the group has played an important role in gathering feedback from local supporters and carrying out surveys, creating an active participation over time able to demand the attention of the larger institutions. This demand finally brought about the important step of supporters being formally involved in a League of Ireland strategy meeting for the very first time.

The ISN reiterated the importance of supporters to the League of Ireland, and also stressed the need to be heard within clubs and at national level.

This past summer after much dialogue with the Irish FA, the ISN now has a seat in an expanded FAI Council following their recommendations to involve supporters that emerged in the report of The Governance Review Group, a joint partnership agreed between the Football Association of Ireland and Sport Ireland. The partnership saw the urge to improve governance at the national body for football in Ireland, two new “Council” seats were assigned for supporters, and a supporter forum was established.

The hard work of the Irish Supporters Network has shown great results. With this “structural relationship” in place, Irish fans can affect the future of their clubs and bring the demands of the fans to the attention of all stakeholders.
