Who can vote

The club invites 2026-27 season-ticket holders, 2026-27 Jack Army members and supporters who have attended at least ten league games, home or away, since August 2024. Eligible supporters are being sent a voting link by email. The club’s announcement includes the candidate statements and says supporters who meet the criteria but have not received the email should contact support@swanseacity.com. Readers should use the club’s official notice and voting email to check eligibility and read the candidate statements before voting.

What the board is for

The advisory board is intended to give supporters a structured way to raise feedback and suggestions with the club’s leadership. Its focus includes matters affecting fans, such as ticketing and heritage. The stated role is to share feedback and advice with the club. The club says the Football Supporters’ Association independently shortlisted applicants, with interviews involving representatives of the club, Swansea City Supporters’ Trust, the association and the wider fanbase. The announcement confirms six elected places and ten candidates. It does not report a turnout or a result; those will follow the voting period.
