The review, chaired by Tracey Crouch MP, the MP for Chatham and Aylesford, seeks to allow fans to express their opinions on how football should be run.

The new survey, which will run for two weeks, will allow fans to provide valuable input into how finance, governance, ownership and regulation should be shaped and will feed into the final report to be published in the autumn.

Fans will be able to provide detailed input on whether they think a club is run transparently, who would be best placed to regulate football and how that would work, salary caps and the independence of women’s clubs.

Mr Bradley said: “This is a fantastic opportunity to have your say in the future of the beautiful game and how it should be run.

“I’m pleased to see the government standing by our manifesto commitment to look into football governance.

"The European Super League is a clear example of why we need a review of this kind, so it’s a step in the right direction.

“I will be sure to give my views to the panel, and I hope all footie fans in Mansfield and Warsop will make their views known too.”
