Petition Stop Government funding the Football Association - divert funds to other sports

The Government provides £30m+ of our tax payers money to the FA. The UK has the wealthiest football league in the world, so this funding needs to stop. Wealthy football clubs should invest in their own sport 100%; they have the means. Many other sports could benefit from re-direction of these funds.
