Chairman Krueger and Board Snub Rail Seats Demo in Southampton

Hello! Thanks to all the new signatures, the petition has hit 800! Last Sunday, I organised for the Safe Standing Roadshow to come to Southampton. Chairman Ralph Krueger snubbed the opportunity I gave him, and did not attend. Neither did any of the rest of the Board of the current owners of Saints. And neither did any staff member of the current owners. I invited all those that I had contacts for. They don't want to be seen to support the campaign, and they can't defend the fact that they haven't supported the campaign. That is why they did not come. People are already calling for Ralph Krueger to go. This won't have done him any favours. The Chair of the Safety Advisory Group, that is in charge of safety at St. Mary's Stadium, attended and saw rail seats for the first time. I was very grateful for him coming and thanked him. The Echo report is attached. That's Solent TV also attended and are compiling a video report. I am lobbying MPs to attend the debate at Parliament on 25th June, and asking them to put pressure on the Government to change the rules. Please keep signing and sharing. Best wishes, Councillor Andrew Pope Southampton Independents Leader of the Southampton FC Safe Standing Campaign
