Has anything actually changed? What role does the Football Supporters' Association (FSA) play? Will supporters genuinely have a stronger voice?</p><p>As Chair of the outgoing Fans' Forum, Mark gives his perspective on why these changes have happened, how the new structure will work and what supporters should be looking for over the next 12 months.</p><p>Rather than reacting to the headlines, we break down what the announcement actually means and discuss whether this could represent the biggest step forward in supporter engagement since Venky's took over Blackburn Rovers.</p><p>Do you think this is genuine progress, or are supporters right to remain sceptical?</p>","author_name":"The Blackburn End Pod"}
