The Government has given the green light for a new independent regulator in football after backing 10 of the recommendations to change the game following a fan-led review.
The recommendations were put forward to No10 by former Sports Minister Tracey Crouch five months ago following the demise of Bury and Macclesfield and the watershed moment in the failure of the breakaway European Super League.
Crouch said the review was a necessity to help the long-term future of the game, holding owners accountable for their failings, showing more scrutiny over financial records and giving supporters more of a say in regards to club decisions among others.
