Petition Legislate for the creation of an independent regulator for football
We petition HMG to legislate for the creation of an independent regulator for football and subsequently to oversee the implementation of such a body.
More details
We assert that the finances and administration of football are in crisis, that self-regulation has failed and that, without a new independent body, there is a serious risk that clubs will begin to fold.
A year on from the government’s refusal of an independent regulator, the situation for clubs has deteriorated to the extent that we believe the decision needs review.
