I see the football governance bill has been ditched (at least for now) due to the General Election being called. In The Independent:
Work on the Football Governance Bill is expected to be halted until later in the summer, after Prime Minister Rishi Sunak confirmed a general election for 4 July, although there is hope from within the game that it could actually result in a much-strengthened regulator that addresses “serious flaws” in the bill.
The bill has had cross-party support since the publication of the recommendations from Tracey Crouch’s fan-led review in 2021, although it has been felt within the Premier League that it would be better to get it through under a Conservative government, which would likely be much less interventionist than under the Labour Party.
It could mean the Premier League’s attempts to push back against strengthened regulation end up working against it, if Sir Keir Starmer gets into power, as widely expected.
