"The English game is played to a high standard, but we don't see that same quality in the boardrooms.

"Sadly, today's fans must worry more about debt and ownership than match performance. The Select Committee joins a long list of people calling for urgent reform and, if necessary, legislation. Now is the time for action.

"Football must get itself in order. Its first target should be to end its love affair with debt."
