Introducing: The Citizens Trust - Manchester City Supporters' Union

City are one of few clubs in the Football League without a supporters trust advocating for our fans. Today, we put that right 🩵

@Harrison4Dawn A membership that went up in cost this season too!

[The Citizens Trust @MCFCtrust]

We fully back this from 1894. Let's build the next generation of fans with affordable pricing, keeping City accessible for local working class families.

[1894 @WeAre1894]

We've written to City via Citymatters & the new SLO today recommending keep prices down for Brighton cup match. Match is during half term, an ideal time to fill the ground. If kept affordable fans bring the whole family. Also helps with atmosphere.

[The Citizens Trust @MCFCtrust]

@AndyAppleby Completely agree, bringing back kids for a quid (with cheaper adult tickets) would go a long way if promoted right.

Anyone around before the game tomorrow, if you can, take a tin over to the foodbank volunteers - every donation makes a difference to communities across North, East and South Manchester 🤝

[MCFC Fans Foodbank Support @MCFCfoodbank]

We're back supporting Mancunians in need before Sunderland, collecting for @McrFoodbank 🩵

Blues donated an unbelievable 120kg+ before Coventry, equating to 152 emergency meals!

Great display 👏

[City Matters Group @citymattersreps]

We received confirmation and assurance from the club that the SeatGeek announcement is not another club endorsed ticket reseller
SeatGeek provide the ticketing software/tech to the club

[1894 @WeAre1894]

We've written to the club this morning asking for clarification on what this means. Is it a 10th reseller or simply using SeatGeek software for ticket sales when logging in to purchase normally.

[The Citizens Trust @MCFCtrust]

We hope that the footballing community across this country is ready to lay challenge to that, as has been seen in other European leagues.

We're ready to stand with @WeAreTheFSA, @FansEurope, @BigBrotherWatch, rights organisations & fan groups at all clubs in order to oppose this

[The Citizens Trust @MCFCtrust]

We have signed this letter to the Mayor of Greater Manchester over the use of Facial Recognition Technology by GMP who, after an ICO audit, were found to be knowingly using a flawed algorithm.

City & United fans were subjected to this just 3 days ago at the Manchester Derby 🧵

[Big Brother Watch @BigBrotherWatch]

👁️Oppose facial recognition @MayorofGM

We've brought together leading rights groups and racial justice organisations to tell the Mayor of Manchester to #StopFacialRecognition

This tech is 250 times more likely to misidentify black women than white subjects and it puts all of our rights and liberties at risk.

This topic is increasingly relevant to English football supporters as Clubs across the country, including our own, are installing FRT-enabled turnstiles.

Upcoming changes to government legislation might mean that having your face scanned when entering a stadium is the new norm.

@craigaaaa @robbohuyton @lukestanley03 Not trying to argue with you Craig, just showing you where we're coming from and highlighting the policies - did you read the other posts in this thread?

We're not asking for anyone to change how they support City, sorry you think we're irrelevant.

[The Citizens Trust @MCFCtrust]

@craigaaaa @robbohuyton @lukestanley03 It may seem like constant negativity, but nothing changes in silence. As you experienced yourself with the protests, the fan groups could have done nothing and we'd be a lot worse off. This is just part of the work, unfortunately it's the most visible

[The Citizens Trust @MCFCtrust]

Well said @robbohuyton, and huge thanks to @lukestanley03 for making the point about the situation at City with our unique personal attendance policy discriminating against many season ticket holders 👏

[The Overlap @WeAreTheOverlap]

"A big club will attempt to get rid of season tickets!" 😬

Could season tickets soon become a thing of the past in the Premier League? 🎟️

[The Citizens Trust @MCFCtrust]

Apparently one arrest yesterday using facial recognition which means a huge invasion of privacy for everyone for the sake of one arrest.

[The Citizens Trust @MCFCtrust]

@SamLee Absolutely - an attack on one is an attack on all at this point 🤝
