BRFCS.com Posted December 10, 2021 Posted December 10, 2021 The Football Supporters Association is calling for fans to counteract the actions of football club chairmen & owners who are lobbying against the proposals in the report. Read the Fan Led Review Document Read our article on how you can help In a nutshell the proposals cover the following areas: Governance: an independent regulator for football (IREF) which has the necessary investigative and enforcement powers needed to prevent the recurrence of such developments as the European Super League. Finance: football’s model is unsustainable with too many clubs making losses. Pre-emptive action is needed and a regulator will impose stronger financial controls. Engagement: proposals to embed democratic supporter organisations and engagement within the heart of domestic football. Heritage: football stadiums, club badges, location, colours and competitions all deserve special protections. Fans to have a veto on these assets at every club via a “golden share” which is held by a democratic, legally-constituted fan group. Reform: half of the FA Board should be made up of independent non-executive directors, to reduce elite club influence. The review also recommends reform of the FA Council. Distribution: the removal of restrictions on FA spending meaning more money redirected towards grassroots, non-league and women’s football. Equality: Equality, diversity and inclusion plans should be mandatory for all clubs. Women’s game: a recommendation that a new review is set up to specifically explore the challenges facing the women’s game. Those challenges may or may not require a different approach to the men’s game but they must be examined thoroughly and independently. Quote
