Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

Secondly, the amended Bill recognises, rightly, that there are contexts in which football will benefit from regulation. That is because football is such an important part of the lives of so many people and so many local communities, and the grass roots of the Premier League reach down into the lower leagues. It is very important not to forget that point.
