Make the 50+1 ownership model mandatory in English professional football
The 50+1 ownership model needs to be introduced in English professional football to give the sport back to the fans.
Thanks to recent attempts to create a European Super League it is crucial that the history of English football which is embedded into the roots of many towns and cities is protected at all costs. The only way we can guarantee this will never happen again is if the fans are involved in the ownership of their own club.
