A Plea To All Sports Fans

A plea to all football and sports fans around the UK from the Wigan Athletic Supporters Club:

Dear Football Fan,

 

We are writing to you to ask for your support to change the future of football for the better. The plight that Wigan Athletic, Bury, Oldham, Bolton and countless others have found themselves in must never be allowed to happen again. We must not stand back and allow history to keep repeating itself without fundamental change to protect our clubs.

 

People lose their jobs, assets are stripped, lifelong supporters have the heart of their club destroyed and in the worst cases this is never rebuilt.

 

We are calling on the government to review the need for a statutory owners and Directors test. One that is independently regulated and protects the future of each Football Club.

 

This is a watershed moment and we implore fans of ALL FOOTBALL CLUBS to please sign our petition to ensure that this matter is debated at the highest level in Parliament.

Yours in Football
