Football’s Equality Standard champions named as part of Fair Game Index

FAIR GAME today named the club with the best record when it comes to Equality Standards. The top three clubs are Huddersfield Town, Lincoln City and Southampton. Former Aston Villa, Cambridge United, Leicester City, Manchester United and England star Dion Dublin, now famous as a presenter for Homes Under The Hammer, revealed the winner in the video above.

The scoring came from publicly available data and involved analysis of over 20 different touchpoints. The data was collated by Fair Game’s team of researchers led by Jack Ruane. Thanks must also go to our friends at Sporting Equals who helped guide the team in the development of the criteria.

The award is one of four strands that form part of the Fair Game Index. The other three strands are good governance, fan engagement and financial sustainability standards. The four are all key components of the Fan-Led Review set out by Tracey Crouch and are expected to be key elements of a new state of play survey for football run by a new Independent Regulator for football.

The Index is the most comprehensive survey of English football ever conducted and the full results will be revealed on Monday. To register for access login here
