Done Martin.I put Bradford City as my team to match my postcode. I wasn't sure if the MP would be as bothered if I put the Rovers down with a BD postcode.🤔
How will this tie in with FIFA's rules regarding government inerference?
I would be surprised if I got a response.I emailed my MP, Caroline Flint, about something over a month ago and she still hasn't responded.
Done, Ed miliband best be red and white and not just red! Are there likely to be any discussions on safe standing or is that for another day!

We probably wouldn't need a debate of this nature to see it through.
Whilst I see merit in the initiative, there's a multitude of things I feel my MP ought to be addressing before they get onto the governance of football.

My preference would be to see the whole of the south stand created into safe standing, I do hope this is the clubs preference on the issue of the keepmoat.Martin, aside from Celtic in Scotland, if and when safe standing is to be introduced do you expect there to be a trial period where by a couple of clubs in England are chosen to implement it first. If the footballing authorities went down this route surely a club like ours would be front runners due to the success with the family and community awards instead of going for the well known troublesome clubs.

Wembley, courtesy of the FA, are also very keen to convert. It will happen, and very soon.Legislation is the key of course, but there are currently debates at all levels as to what constitutes Safe Standing. For example the PL like the current situation, the SGSA would like to look at alternatives to the rail seat idea, the EFL are happy to just go with increased levels of crush barriers.I would suggest that if the Keepmoat did go down this route then that's what we would do. There's no point in having rail seats if you never intend to use the seats, you may as well just have the rails!
Done,My MP is John Mann.I find him very good,but I've not experienced him regards Sports,I have no idea of his opinions/track record there.
