Supporting a particular football team wouldn't prevent a councillor from taking part in meetings that affected it, in the same way that once having bought a pair of socks from M&S wouldn't prevent taking part in a planning meeting about their store.

Probably, the only thing in Hyndburn's Code of Conduct, which is based on a nationally recommended model, that would prevent a councillor from being involved in a meeting about Stanley would be if they had had hospitality from the club valued at £25 or more.
