FIFA have described us as the greenest football club in the world, it is certainly true that no other football club in the world has put the environment at the heart of what it does, and embedded into it’s DNA like we have.
We’re the only club in the world to have EMAS accreditation – the gold standard of environmental management – and we’re the first and only vegan football club in the world. Our aim is to be in the Championship within the next five years – and we’re planning to build a stadium to match those ambitions, too, it has been designed by Zaha Hadid, and would be the only stadium in the world made entirely of wood.
