However, the noble Lord’s Amendment 1 would go even further—we believe too far—by making success part of the Bill’s, and so the regulator’s, primary purpose. As I have set out, the regulator will avoid harming the success of English football, but if it is tasked with more actively pursuing it that would be a broadening of its remit. It would have more to think about, and likely have to concern itself with more aspects of football, such as the commercial side of the game and sporting performance.
