Speaking in the House of Lords on 15 January 2025

Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

The noble Lord is almost suggesting that clubs of whatever size should not have a business plan. One of the things we want to encourage and develop is sustainability. There has been complacency among many clubs at different levels, such that they have not made proper forward-looking plans. I do not think it is a burden on them to do so at the appropriate level and proportionately, as we were saying earlier, but it would help the sustainability of all football clubs if they were to look forward in that way.
