Business question from Jim Devine (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 May 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
May we have a debate on football in the run-up to the World cup, particularly on the need to strengthen the role of fans? Like many football fans, I am appalled that players earn in a week what a nurse would earn on average in five years. In some clubs, season ticket prices have gone up by 47 per cent., which is quite unacceptable. Is it not time to introduce a fans charter and legislation to establish a supporters trust and a fan on every board in Britain?
