The motion

That this House expresses support for the Football Supporters’ Association’s Stop Exploiting Loyalty campaign which seeks to stop ticket price rises in the top-flight of English football by way of a two-year price halt for the 2026-27 and 2027-28 seasons; congratulates the 115 supporter organisations who put club rivalries aside to co-sign the letter backing that campaign; calls on the league and its clubs to share clear and transparent ticketing data, including prices, sales, policies, and demographics, with supporters; supports the use the two years to hold open, ongoing discussions with Fan Advisory Boards and supporter organisations on future pricing plans; defends concessionary pricing bands which have been under attack by clubs and understands that these concessionary pricing categories are essential in helping extend access to football for the youngest and oldest supporters as well as those with disabilities; and encourages the new Independent Football Regulator to ensure that clubs entering consultation with supporters on ticket pricing do so with integrity and guidance which goes beyond a tick box exercise and instead helps deliver football for all at a fair and affordable price.
