Sustain the Game: Support continues to grow

Since its launch on Friday the Sustain The Game! message has reached millions across the UK – and the list of signatories to the campaign continues to grow.

Many fan groups, football clubs and politicians have been in touch with us over the past few days to add their names to the list. The second wave includes four more football clubs who have also backed our five principles: Hendon FC, Fisher FC, Frickley Athletic and Clapton CFC.

FSA vice chair Tom Greatrex said: “Football clubs are at the heart of communities up and down the country – often well run, with owners who care – but without changes to how the game is run, the future of many clubs could be at risk

“That is why it is time for owners, clubs, supporters and all those who want to safeguard football for the future to join together and Sustain The Game.”
