The City of Belfast Northern Ireland Supporters Club (CoBNISC) was formed in 2006, with the aim of bringing together a group of like-minded NI football fans who ardently support our national football team. Since then the Club has gone from strength to strength. It is a member of the Amalgamation of Northern Ireland Supporters Clubs (www.aonisc.co.uk).

As our logo shows, in memory of our greatest ever NI footballer, the CoBNISC is dedicated to the immortal football legend Georgie Best – the Belfast Boy!

Our membership is drawn from Belfast and the surrounding area, with males and females of differing ages and from various backgrounds. This gives the Club a great balance of opinions and perspectives. Club meetings, which take place in the Naval Club on Great Victoria Street, are never dull, and the crack is usually pretty good!

The CoBNISC has a cap of 25 members. From time to time membership does become available so if you are interested in joining contact the Club secretary, Chris Johnston (info@cobnisc.com). Annual membership is £20 and members are required to open a personal Club savings account of £20 per month, which can then be used for away travel.

Members block book seats beside one another for home games, as well as making arrangements for travel to away games. Away match travel is increasingly popular, and the CoBNISC has been represented at venues all over the world (and especially in France at the 2016 Euros!).

As well as the business side of supporting NI, the CoBNISC arranges social events where members can enjoy themselves while at the same time raising funds to support the Club. Those members not travelling to away games also regularly get together to watch the game. Members also communicate regularly on social media platforms.
