Empty promises. Why should billionaire's listen to politicians about how to run their business??
Sounds like a potential legislative minefield. How do you distinguish football clubs from other businesses? And if football clubs are then made a "special case," couldn't they then start asking for exemptions/ exceptions to other legislation that applies to companies?
Is it not "only" allowing "Supporters" 10% of shareholding, effectively 10% of feck All. The voice may be there, but wont be heard unless the 90% man wishes to hear .
SMWhile I absolutely agree entirely with the content of your post, may I play devils advocate ?Do you not think any rich individuals that want to plough money into a club irrespective of which club, might now think that "why should a supporters group have the power to kick me out of the club when I'm putting all my money into it" and therefore that money might be lost to the game ?
A rare decent policy from dismal Ed and the labour party..Sadly it's not worth risking sending the country bust over..So wont be voting for them...

The Lib Dems are supporting our position on standing, the Tories are meeting us next week to discuss these issues too, plus we're in Manchester with Clive Efford this afternoon. Our opinions have never been so important as they are right now.
I'm surprised 'Mick' hasn't jumped all over this seeing as it's a Labour initiative....

People criticise Ed Miliband,but i think he is the most trustworthy politician we have,yes he's not fluid on being a good liar,like the rest,but he is a good and decent man.He has my vote against this cruel lot who are in now,they look after nobody but number one and their rich pals,he may be a public schoolboy,but he cares about people,and tries to help the community he serves,i'm not a fan of many politicians,but for me given time he could be a good leader.Vote Cameron back in and you will get your Gran,Grandad,mam and dad all losing money,Cameron doesn't care.
