All representatives should a Supporters Trust be set up for Swansea City FC would be duly elected by members of the trust (i.e. the common fan), with regular meetings on how we are to proceed etc.<\/p>\n

All this can be accomplished with the assistance of Supporters Direct who have a website should you require further information (Click here<\/a>)<\/p>\n
