yes, it was very positive they openly stated they are using Man City as the template and acknowledged the fans in the past were almost ignored. The OSC's going forward will be consulted on key fan issues - Season ticket prices etc. They also made it clear they are trying to get a badge on the back of the railway but to quote "As we want it to be seen where ever you are in the city we need to get planning permission." Other stuff was announced around ticket allocations for away games etc but i'm not going to post it publicly.

they said it was still private but would say it won't be USA and will be in Europe. Still agreeing everything but hoping to announce shortly so people can make plans to attend.

Thank you for the update

To be fair you can start one from wherever you want in theory I suppose.

Not sure of your actual point, but i'm not going to steal the clubs thunder from the launch is my point.

Yeah true, I didn’t wanna start one, just join, I assume there will be a South Brum one at some point.

I don’t live anywhere near Solihull, just wanted to join either a Birmingham one, South Birmingham One, Kings Norton one or whatever, so far it seems targeted at people from outside of Brum

I can see the site says they will open up Membership at the end of the Feb, so I’ll wait for that, assuming there will be local options

I do agree. If SCs are going to get extra relevance then the actual city needs to be covered too if not more. That might mean the club starting them.

Closest one i know is happening to South Brum. Once the OSC is launched you will be able to search for one but its based on where people are prepared to open them. I suppose people living further away from Brum fans are more likely want to belong to something that connects them. There are applications in from Dubai, New Zealand x 2, Australia, Hawaii, the ones closer to home weren't mentioned.
