In the 8^th in our series of Fan-Led Review surveys, we would like to give you the opportunity to register your views on the recommendations dealing with fairer financial distribution to support the football pyramid, a proposal to review to sale of alcohol in view of the pitch during games and also a review of the use of plastic pitches for newly promoted EFL clubs.

 
The Fan-Led Review was published on 24 November ’21 and can be viewed in full by clicking here.
 
Recommendations contained within the FLR are intended to address the following:
 
a. “The incentives in the game are leading to many clubs with fragile finances which were further exposed by COVID-19.”
 
b. “Many clubs are poorly run, with reckless decision making chasing an illusion of success and a disconnect between the interests of fans and owners.”
 
c. “Regulation and oversight of the game at the domestic level is not up to the challenge of solving the structural challenges and specialist business regulation that will be needed.”

The BWFCST were involved in the consultation stage of the FLR and continue to contribute through involvement with the FSA and Fair Game.

In order to effectively represent our members views, the following is the eighth in a series of surveys which will give you the opportunity to register your views on the full list of 47 recommendations contained in the FLR document. Each survey will remain open for 7 days to give every opportunity to let us have your views.
 
The eighth in the series will cover the eight recommendations under the sub-heading:

“Fair distributions are vital to the long term health of football. The Premier League should guarantee its support to the pyramid and make additional, proportionate contributions to further support football.”

We would like to ask all our members to complete the latest in our series of surveys (which should each take only a couple of minutes of your time) and register your response to each of the recommendations. By doing so will it allow us to identify our members’ priorities when it comes to focusing on the progress of the FLR through the legislative process and to effectively represent your views.
