Petition Create a new independent body to regulate football referees in England.
There is a lack of transparency, consistency, and accountability in how referees are managed in the top flight of English football. The UK Parliament's recent vote of no confidence in the FA highlights the poor governance.
A new non-FA independent body is required to rectify the poor standards.
