Football Action Network @footballactionnetwork.com · 21/09/2026
#FootballActionNetwork launches with almost 40 member organisations, coming together as a new force for positive change - in the game and across communities. Find out more at footballactionnetwork.com/news/a-new-f...
Quote from FAN's CEO, Kevin Wooldridge: "The Football Action Network provides a platform to connect people, share learning, and strengthen collaboration across the sector, because the challenges we face are bigger than any one organisation.

I've long believed that lasting impact is built through partnership. By bringing together those committed to using football as a force for good, the Football Action Network can help amplify what's working, inspire new ideas, and accelerate positive change across the game and the communities it serves."

😱 The recent #FIFAWorldCup has almost completely wiped out supporters' confidence in #FIFA. See the results of our fan survey for the full story: footballactionnetwork.com/news/fan-sur... 🚫 Surely this leaves #Infantino with zero mandate for his plan to bring private capital into the #WorldCup

Some days those memes just write themselves
The Principal Skinner meme, but with Gianni Infantino asking "Am I out of touch?" and concluding "no, it's the millions of lifelong football fans who are wrong"

icymi: at the weekend @libdems.org.uk leader @eddavey.libdems.org.uk called for the FA and UEFA to withdraw from FIFA. Our chair @niallcouper.bsky.social has responded. Do you agree?
"FIFA should be the moral compass of world football. Instead, it too often finds itself at the centre of questions over discrimination, human rights, fan engagement, environmental responsibility and transparency.

Football deserves better. The Liberal Democrats are right to demand a serious debate about FIFA's future. Nothing should be off the table if the game's global governing body refuses to reform.

We have reached a tipping point. The Football Action Network and its members are ready to work with the Liberal Democrats and parties across the political spectrum to help build a fairer future for the game we all love."

Niall Couper
Chair, Football Action Network
