With over 250 owners already, why not join them in helping to grow the club.
Become an owner
As a phoenix football club we wanted to create something that is transparent, democratic and sustainable. Run by the community, for the community. We believe the best way to do this is to be a 100% fan owned club. This way we can all work together to build a club we are all proud of.
Being a fan owner will allow you to:
• Vote On Key Decisions Such As The Badge, Where We Play, Design Of Kits & More
• Ability To Stand For The Committee
• Receive A Weekly Newsletter
• Attend Monthly Town Hall Meetings With The Committee & First Team Manager
• Plus More Benefits To Be Announced In The Future
We have different options for membership to make it accessible for everyone:
The legal structure of a Community Benefit Society allow owners of all ages but you can’t vote until you are 16. To reflect with we have launched an Under 16s ETCFC Ownership option for £15 a year.
If you have any questions don’t hesitate to get in touch with us via the contact page on the website.
Commonly Asked Questions
One. Our system is ‘one owner, one share, one vote.’ But you can buy a share for a friend or a family member.
Anyone of any age can own a share, but they won’t have voting rights until they are 16.
We will be registered as a Community Benefit Society which means that (like a company) (1) it is a legal entity in its own right, independent of the owners and (2) the liability of owners is limited to the value of their nominal £1 shareholding (which will be taken at the time of joining out of the Ownership payment). “Any claim arising from the activities of the Society will therefore be a claim against the Society not the owners. If the Society were to become insolvent, the owners would lose their £1 stakes but could not be called upon to contribute further.” In short, buying the share doesn’t lay you open to any responsibility or liability.
