Who is the best football club for good governance? Fair Game reveals all

FAIR GAME this afternoon has revealed the best ranked football club in England when it comes to good governance. The top three clubs are Cambridge United, Carlisle United and Lincoln City.

Huge Bolton fan Ruth Madeley, famed for her roles in Years and Years, The Rook and Doctor Who, and her BAFTA-nominated performance in Don’t Take Me Baby, revealed the winner in the video above.

The Good Governance scoring was a combination of data from Fair Square, Responsiball, HerGameToo and Fair Game researchers under the guidance of Jack Ruane with advice from Rob Harrison, director of Ethical Consumer.

The award is one of four strands that form part of the Fair Game Index. The other three strands are financial sustainability, fan engagement and equality 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
