1). Middlesbrough Supporters Forum (MSF) was founded in February 2017 as an
organisation independent of Middlesbrough Football Club (MFC) to bring together
disparate but representative independent Middlesbrough Supporters groups and
media platforms that promote and support the views of football supporters who follow
Middlesbrough Football Club.
2). As of April 2024, there are twelve full time Forum members. These are
Twe12thman, Middlesbrough Disabled Supporters Association (MDSA), Boro
Supporters Club 2020 (BSC2020), Fly Me To The Moon (FMTTM), Middlesbrough
Supporters South (MSS), Rainbow Reds, oneBoro, The Boro Breakdown, Boro Fusion,
Boro North America, Boro BAME Army and a Media Officer.
3). The main purpose of the Forum is to convey as accurately as possible the collective
views of Middlesbrough Football Club fans to the representatives of the Club to
enhance the match day experience of all Middlesbrough Supporters, home and away or
wherever they find themselves in the world.
4). MSF also aims to represent MFC’s football fans to create a unified voice to debate,
lobby, and act on substantive fans’ issues specific to MFC and wider issues to the game
of football that affect all fans.
5). MSF will seek to represent the fans of MFC in wider discussions with the football
authorities, broadcasters, and other football associated bodies.
6). MSF will always seek to represent and promote the views of all Middlesbrough fans
regardless of nationality, age, colour, religion or creed, gender, or sexual orientation.
7). Whilst remaining independent MSF will always endeavour to work with MFC and
maintain dialogue with its representatives and a representative from MFC will be
invited to meeting when relevant.
