Awaits the first “what good will on do” conment
Good job it’s asking for an independent regulatory body of English football then and not the government to run football.Fifa don’t like government interference in football so for this alone it’s worth signing

The point being you don’t know that. Signing the petition could actually lead to that being clarified rather than assumed. For that reason alone it’s worth signing.They could still see it as interference

I am not sure this has been thought through. What is the problem?
Is it that the EFL is run by its own members; i.e., a lack of independence?
Or is it that the EFL lacks the statutory powers to enforce meaningful regulations; e.g., forcing clubs to play in their own city, forcing bad owners to sell their ownership interests?
Personally, I think it's the latter rather than the former. Unfortunately, this petition has misdiagnosed the problem. What additional powers would an independent regulator have? Why can't the government simply hand those powers to the EFL through statutory instrument?
The PL's rules are a little stricter than the EFL. Simply - the EFL’s test for ownership does not consider what happens to a club after it has been purchased.I know I have said this before, so please do accept my apologies for repeating, but I am still confused as to how individuals who were in charge of an organisation that went in to administration, are deemed as 'Fit and Proper' by the powers that be to run that same organisation under a different name.
