Football Supporters' Party

The Constitution of the Football Supporters’ Party


We believe in trying to secure and maintain the place of football as the number one sport in the United Kingdom, and our aim is the endorsement of candidates for election to advance this cause. We strongly advocate that football as a participator and spectator sport should be available to all, irregardless of sex, nationality or ethnic background. We believe in democratic means or ‘fair play’ to achieve our aims, and are opposed to violence, both inside and outside of sport. Above all we want to make football a sport worth watching and participating in, and we want our countries to succeed.

The Aims of the F.S.P.

Value for money for supporters

Excitement and atmosphere
