Probably be about as effective as OfWat, Ofgem and all the others.
But it's a step in the right direction.

Too little too late, this will be a toothless organisation with little power to change the status quo. The powers that be have their fangs sunk way too deep into the broken institution of modern football, and they have way too much money to let themselves be unseated.

A good idea that will put someone who is a friend of Boris's in to power, and then just turn out to be another drain on the cash cow that is the Premier league.

Poor article - doesnt explain a damn thing. So what will this new independant regulator have the power to do, what exactly will it regulate? Its not going to replace the FIFA/UEFA/FA pyramind. Maybe it will decide who can own a football club. But that wont stop clubs going out of business. if the chairman goes down then all his enterprises go down - which is exactly what nearly hppened to us. Perhaps the govt will stop treating clubs as businesses and start looking at them as protected institutions - change their tax status and make them charaties - -just like golf clubs up and down the land. Introduce salary caps for Championship and below. Start an emergency fund that all clubs contribnute to - like a form of insurance when a club hits financial difficulty. Lots of good ideas - dont expect any of them to ever take shape.

It’s a Bill, to be discussed and voted on in Parliament, so everyone has to wait and see ultimately how this will work and what powers they will have. |

I know one of the blokes that worked on this. I’ve not spoken about this with him, but might try and catch up in the next few weeks and see what sort of challenges came up…

It’s another bollox policy by our unelected prime minister to try and leave with a legacy.
He should be in prison. People died alone. They had parties.
End of.
