Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 December 2024

Debate

Football Governance Bill [HL]

Contribution

Fan consultation is a deeply valued and cherished part of football’s governance. The relationship between clubs and their supporters is unique, and we must do everything possible to strengthen it, but, at the same time, we would be wise to tread carefully. Prescriptive requirements, however well-intentioned, may not always reflect the diversity of clubs and their fan bases, nor the complexities or fiercely prized nature of their relationships.
