  My Lords, I would like to ask the Minister on that point about engagement with fans. As I alluded to before the dinner break, sometimes those fans are in the tens of thousands. Can she share with us how the regulator will engage with those fans? If the regulator will refer to fan representatives, who would those representatives be on a case-by-case basis or club-by-club basis?
