Football Governance Bill 09:37 - Mar 6 with 661 views

The Football Governance Bill is currently under consideration in the House of Lords. If passed, the Act will establish an Independent Football Regulator. However, this development raises concerns about its potential negative impact on both clubs and fans. I had the opportunity to share my perspective on this issue as part of a discussion on the Academy of Ideas podcast, where I delved into the implications of the Bill.

I would be interested to know your views.

Unfortunately, I completely disagree with your comments.

Organisations such as the FA, The EFL and the Premier League have failed in their duty to protect their clubs from rogue owners for far too long. The cases of Hereford United, Bury, Macclesfield, Reading, Bolton all come to mind.

You also fail to mention in your articles that the regulator would give fans a bigger say in their clubs over heritage items such as kits, badges as well as their stadium.

I get that this regulator isn't perfect, and it certainly won't solve every issue, however when governance from the top has failed the game for far too long, there has to be a tipping point, and whilst I'm normally against this, its got to that point now.

Oh goody, another government regulator.

How have regulator's worked out in other areas? Anyone able to point to tangible benefits passed on to the people?

Football unable to regulate itself. Governments rarely capable of governing properly: What could possibly go wrong?

My money is on it being a load of old monkey pooh, and I bet SLF is in the frame for it!!

No thanks. Claire Fox is an extremist nutcase and sure enough, a little way in the politically charged agenda is revealed.

It's a good idea in theory but not sure it will actually work
