BLUE UNITY STATEMENT Linfield Football Club is in complete ruin, headed by a board that is no longer fit for purpose. We were promised pace and power. We were led to believe that a rebuild was underway and that the club was moving in a new direction. Instead, we have been left with what is arguably the most underwhelming transfer window in the club’s history, a threadbare squad, significant debt and a growing acceptance of mediocrity. But this goes far beyond what is happening on the pitch. Linfield are now arguably the worst-run club in the league when it comes to fan engagement, financial management, matchday experience, catering, transfers, community outreach and stewarding. These failures have been allowed to develop over a sustained period, while the ordinary supporter has been repeatedly expected to accept excuses rather than answers. We recognise that there are a small number of individuals on the board who are making genuine efforts to improve these situations. However, it has become increasingly clear that the size and structure of the board including the so-called “trustees” has grown beyond the point where meaningful change can be made. Many of these individuals remain completely unknown to a large percentage of the Linfield fanbase. There is little transparency, little accountability and far too much anonymity, allowing those operating in the background to avoid scrutiny while others at the forefront are left to take responsibility for decisions in which they were not acting alone. The answers given for our club’s many failures are no longer good enough. Blaming the IFA for a contract we agreed to is no longer a sufficient answer. Blaming other clubs for spending money is no longer a sufficient answer. Blaming supporters as a reason for a lack of sponsorship is no longer a sufficient answer. Blaming individual fans while actively searching for ways to silence, ban and marginalise them is no longer a sufficient answer. For too long, Linfield supporters have been vilified simply for voicing opposition to how our club is being run. Legitimate criticism is treated with contempt by a board that appears to hold the ordinary supporter in disdain. Linfield has even run campaigns against specific members of Blue Unity and other supporters, with the assistance of the Chief Security Officer. Enough is enough. We were promised “quality over quantity” by the chairman. What we have received is neither. The supporters deserve better. The club deserves better. The current structure is not working. The unelected trustees in particular have become a symbol of a system that lacks accountability and meaningful connection with the supporters it is supposed to serve. Change is now required, and it is required immediately. We will continue to support the players who wear the shirt. We will continue to support Linfield Football Club. But supporting Linfield does not mean blindly supporting those who run it. Enough is enough. Support the team. Not the regime.
Blue Unity welcomes Linfield FC statement this morning which outlines that we have cut ties with Mooney’s Nevertheless, we cannot accept that this is the matter now closed and that everything is swept under the carpet. Once again, the lack of transparency and accountability is evident from a dinosaur board. Our members have been subject to "club investigations" which were based on no photographic or video evidence, but "anonymous information." It is clear that briefing has taken place to try and pin the blame on one individual. This is yet another example of the self preservation strategy where members will willingly sacrifice each other to keep their blazer. We await the full results of a club investigation which we fully believe should result in board members resigning. Support the team, not the regime.
The Linfield board and those above them do not represent Linfield Football Club, they haven’t for a long time. Numerous protest actions are already prepared, these will continuously escalate until all ties are cut with Mooney’s and every single board member involved in making this deal is removed from their position.
ALL TOGETHER NOW. Some of the clubs best nights in recent years have came in European competition, maximum effort from the fans across both the south stand and the KOP is required if we are to push the team on to another famous night at Windsor. Sing for 90.
Oh the Glentoran are…
𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 Glentoran is delighted to announce the return of Jordan Stewart on a 2 year contract. The 30 year old academy graduate and 2015 Irish Cup winner returns to the Glens for his second spell at the club, becoming Declan Devine's 2nd signing ahead

Today, one of our senior members was prohibited from entering Windsor Park. Having purchased a season ticket, he was given no prior indication that he would be refused entry. Linfield are happy to take hard earned money from fans whilst refusing entry based on zero evidence of wrongdoing. Moreover, when speaking with the Chairman and General Manager, he was told he was refused entry, based on “board members seeing him light a flare at Coleraine away in February.” No photographic or video evidence. This is, once again, yet another example of the contempt in which the Linfield board hold ordinary decent supporters. Allowing the IFA to exploit fans through expensive drinks packages and failure to protect fans at away games is only the tip of the iceberg. The supporters are the lifeblood of our club, the fat cats in blazers would do well to remember that. Support the team, hate the regime.

Entry denied, on the basis of lies. Linfield board not fit for purpose, support the team not the regime.
of the clubs listed above. Draconian outdated fines to escape positive discussion around the use of pyro are the problem. Attempts to kill the growing fan scene at among Irish league clubs will only result in a drop of steadily growing attendances, promote positive pyro.
Gerard Lawlor and those at NIFL have no issue promoting pyro when it suits. Cliftonville Glentoran Crusaders Coleraine Larne Portadown Glenavon Bangor All of the clubs listed above have used positive pyro in recent times, Linfield are not the problem nor are the rest…
