Football Supporters Europe teams at international tournaments. But the real story of FSE as it now exists began in July 2008, when the UK's Football Supporters’ Federation (FSF) hosted in London the first European Football Fans’ Congress. The London meeting, held at Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium, discussed the issues which concerned fans across Europe, and gave a great impetus to the development of the network. The following year, in Hamburg, the second European Football Fans’ Congress (EFFC) was held, and alongside the workshops on issues such as discrimination, policing, ticket pricing and commercialisation, the decision was taken to adopt statutes and formally establish the
Thornton-Eildon Football Club and Central Goulburn Football League before rejoining the Yarry Valley league in 2006. In 1949 the TFC merged with Acheron Valley Football Club to form the Thornton–Acheron Valley Football Club and in 1957 then merged with Eildon Football Club to become what it is known as today. In the aftermath of the 2009 Black Saturday bushfires that affected many of the team's players and supporters, the club once again disbanded after the 2010 season. A few years later, the club reformed and joined the Yarra Valley League for season 2014. Thornton-Eildon Football Club The Thornton-Eildon Football Club, nicknamed "The Shinboners"
