The Bolton Wanderers' Supporters Trust has welcomed today's announcement from the Government to formally support 10 key recommendations to change English football proposed by a fan-led review that promises major changes but has asked for a timetable for when action will be taken.
Tracey Crouch MP has worked with supporter groups to lay out a blueprint for the future of the game, including a focus on sustainability, distribution of wealth and a bid to stop rogue owners. The project followed an outcry over an attempted breakaway European Super League, demise of professional clubs Bury and Macclesfield Town and major struggles in recent years of others including Wanderers and Derby County.
The Government will now set out its full response this afternoon following a statement to the House of Commons by Sports Minister Nigel Huddleston. It will mean substantial change in the background to the operation of all clubs.
