The scottish football union

The Scottish Football Union aims to unite all fans who watch, play and officiate at games across our country. In other words, everyone who loves the game.  A cross between a union and think tank, we seek to listen to and reflect supporters' views as we work in partnership with the key influencers to jointly tackle the major issues affecting Scottish football today.
 

The SFU's mission is also to make Scottish football more inclusive, accountable and unmistakably yours. Our open, honest and apolitical approach sets us apart, while the depth and breadth of our contacts – from the Highlands to Hampden - mean we have our finger on the pulse and are recognised as being major contributors to the future of the game in this country. And as a union for fans, we’ll make sure that we actually listen to your voices – and will relay what you are thinking to the powers-that-be.  Put simply, we are The Fans' Voice.  

 

Membership is free, no catches, no payments down the line, just free lifetime membership. Sign up today at this link and join the team.
