About John
John Giles has been a valued member of the Co-op Board since 2014, bringing passion, commitment and a deep connection to the Club. He was the initiator and driving force behind the much-admired Danny Bergara statue, a lasting tribute that reflects his dedication to preserving the Club’s heritage.
Away from the boardroom, John was Race Director of the Hatters Half Marathon and has played a key role in arranging numerous events featuring County legends, both past and present, strengthening the bond between the Club and its supporters. A County fan for nearly 35 years, John attended his first match against Torquay United, a memorable 2–1 victory sealed by a spectacular Andy Kilner volley — a moment that sparked a lifelong loyalty.
John’s focus on the Board is ensuring that County supporters have a stronger voice, while delivering tangible benefits for Co-op members and helping to grow and develop the organisation’s membership.
