Stop the sale of Wembley Stadium

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

This stadium is a part of the heritage of this country and our national sport. It should be treated as a state asset. One off support for grass routes football is a nonsense.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Any decision about selling Wembley Stadium is the responsibility of the Football Association, not the UK Government or Parliament.

You could contact the FA directly about this issue:

You could start a new petition to ask the UK Government to urge the FA not to sell Wembley Stadium.
