The FA Reimburse all non league clubs of This season fees & expenses

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

As the FA have decided to null & void all non league seasons due to Covid - 19, we want to be reimbursed as if the season is deemed not to have happen then way should they keep our money, non league clubs are being treated differently from pro clubs with is totally unfair
FA should refund all subs & league fees to clubs & players respectively for voiding '19/20 Leagues. They cannot have it both ways, take teams' efforts & points away without the minimum issue of financial repercussions. the league was 80% through!!!

Also if the fa are the governing body of all football clubs why are we being treated differently to pro club??? Is it because the FA only want to protect their money making machines??

Why it was rejected

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

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. This is the responsibility of the Football Association.
