# Is there still a fans' forum with the club, and can the Chairman attend a FAB meeting?

Topic: Communication with Supporters

Yes. The club has said fans' forums continue alongside the FAB; in [September 2024](https://images.gc.barnsleyfcservices.co.uk/ae2fed90-b7cd-11ef-8b79-f79543cff882.pdf) it confirmed that other fan engagement events would carry on, including the fans' evening with the club's owners, and that feedback from them would be fed back into the FAB. In [March 2025](https://images.gc.barnsleyfcservices.co.uk/9b135860-2a72-11f0-b316-3d917fca0cba.pdf) the Chief Executive said there are normally three forums a year. At the [August 2026 meeting](https://images.gc.barnsleyfcservices.co.uk/a65debd0-ac45-11f1-a0bc-9359ad8c111a.pdf) the club confirmed an in-person forum is planned this season.

The FAB has also asked whether the Chairman would join a FAB meeting. The club's answer, given in August 2026, is that an online format is the realistic option should the Chairman be available. Ownership questions gathered from supporters have been put to the club through the FAB before, including in [April 2025](https://images.gc.barnsleyfcservices.co.uk/b390dcb0-3570-11f0-a020-bd0d915a582a.pdf), when a pre-recorded video interview was suggested as an alternative to a live session.
