- Football Governance White Paper
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/21245085/biggest-shake-up-football-ownership-in-years-leaked/
Main changes -
A ban on clubs being able to join breakaway leagues, with teams only able to compete in competitions approved by the regulator
A annual tax paid by all teams to fund the independent regulator
Money will be taken from the Premier League and spread out more evenly in the lower leagues, to try and prevent clubs going bust
New tougher ownership rules which will replace the “fit and proper” test and scrutinise the source of wealth
All clubs will need to reapply and gain a fresh licence
Fans to be handed more power, with clubs consulting them on key decisions
The devil will be in the detail of course. There must be a high chance of lawyers and accountants finding a way around the rules before they come into force possibly for the 2023/24 season.
