Google Bot 3,259 Posted November 18, 2022 (edited) Anyone interested, it was for the campaign that the club ran in regards to suicides. i.e. "best programme" https://sportsbusinessawards.co.uk/winner/best-fan-engagement-programme-2022/ Yes it's a good cause, but not what I'd consider fan engagement, The Wigan #beleive campaign is interesting though. I could imagine Webber pouncing on something like that, but turning it into #canaryVIP or something. Edited November 18, 2022 by Google Bot 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't see any sensible fan not being proud of such a suggestion. Champions 🏆 🥇 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,638 Posted November 18, 2022 Yes, that was from back when the club was good and things were ok. Obviously now we all know it must have just merely been a cynical ploy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By Hook or Ian crook 917 Posted November 19, 2022 I think there seems to be some misunderstanding from people as to the difference between fan engagement and fan connection is. Engagement just simply means someone has interacted with it, could be good could be bad but it’s all about getting eyes and reactions. Connection is about feeling you and your club have a shared identity and ambition, a simple look through a majority of the comments on most forms of NCFC social media will tell you that fans engage regularly to voice their discontent at the club showing a lack of connection.

I could imagine Webber pouncing on something like that, but turning it into #canaryVIP or something. It was a really good campaign IMO and I’m proud the club spent the time and money on it. However it was a marketing campaign, not engagement with supporters per se. I find it interesting there’s a mindset that views it as such. As an aside working in a large US modern company we often talk about engagement in a similar way, literally internal marketing to employees.

Capt. Pants 4,202 Posted November 19, 2022 The award relates to how the club used a new kit launch to raise mental health awareness. They then followed that up, on mental health day, with another superb video. The former, amazingly, caused a bit of discussion on here... The engagement with fans on this topic has been first class, whilst on the pure football side shall we say there are opportunities to improve. Accept the award as well earned though, because it was. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A Load of Squit 5,136 Posted November 19, 2022 This was the one where people moaned because they thought it was going to be about the new shirt but was about saving lives instead. Norwich City Football Club What can be more meaningful than a campaign that potentially saves a life? As a club, we took the bold approach of using the ‘hook’ of our much-anticipated reveal of our 2022/23 home kit to drive maximum awareness of the worrying rates of mental health and suicide. An impactful launch video, voiced by Stephen Fry, was supported by interviews with subjects personally affected by suicide who so bravely shared their stories. In one year alone, 518 people in East Anglia took their own life and data shows that the average age of our season ticket holders (49) is in the bracket of people most at risk. These data points were the driver for us to firstly increase awareness of this hugely important topic, but also to educate supporters on where to go should they need support with their mental health. This was a campaign born out of a desire to use our platform for good. With over 750k organic views across our channels, the bold approach we took worked, and we were overwhelmed with messages of support from fans across the country, some who confirmed the campaign had prompted them to get the mental health support they so desperately needed.

Clearly this is very good in that it shows that Football Clubs and the like can play a vital role in reaching people who may not otherwise be reached and as a result lives may be saved. Watching football is the most important part of fan engagement and can operate as a safety valve. With an average season ticket age of 49 there are many who are not getting that opportunity.
