RECLAIM THE GAME - FOOTBALL FOR THE FANS- EUROPEAN WIDE CAMPAIGN

The Issue

 

The game of football needs a reset. A new balance in which the fans, supporters and other passionate football enthusiasts regain part of the ownership and in which money functions as a facilitator to improve and innovate the game instead of being merely a goal. We need to reclaim the game! 

We are football fans from various European countries who believe we need to UNITE to RECLAIM THE GAME from human rights abusing nation states and dodgy multi-nationals.

If you agree with our mission statement below sign our petition and get involved in the campaign.

RECLAIM THE GAME MISSION STATEMENT

1. Legislation in Europe on ownership of football clubs before 2034. Nation states cannot be allowed to own our football clubs. Companies have to apply the historic and democratic values of the game and fans must be involved in the ownership.
  
2. A reinvention of the global organization (currently FIFA) of the game. There have been numerous cases of corruption and vote rigging at the top levels of FIFA. For the sake of the future of football as a sport for and by the people rather than as a money making plaything of the mega-rich, fundamental changes in the administration of the game are urgently needed.   Fans and democracy are the starting point. 

3. Opposition to the proposed World Cup in Saudi Arabia. Human rights abusing dictatorships cannot be allowed to use the beautiful game to sportswash away their crimes. 

4. Appeal to football associations, legislators, players and fans in Europe to boycott the 2034 World Cup and if it goes ahead to organize an alternative ‘Human Rights’ World Cup.

5. Urge sponsors to rethink their support for dictatorships hosting events, safeguarding human rights, and upholding CSR values.
