Finally some good news and positive steps forward regarding English futsal, although things are still very far from being considered - good. But, every step in a right direction...
Tanni Grey-Thompson, former paralympian, current member of UK's House of Lords, met with English futsal player Doug Reed to discuss dismal state of affairs English futsal finds itself in, after FA decided to cut funding to futsal and disband all national futsal teams.

Interest in the concerns for the @FA decisions on futsal has reached those in the @UKHouseofLords. Thank you so much life peer & legendary athlete Tanni Grey-Thompson for your support. #FutsalForAll https://t.co/fYysM1zfYx https://t.co/1OJiSzuqQM

We hope these talks will results at some pressure to FA to follow example of FA's throughout the world that support their futsal scene.
If you still haven't, there is still time to sign the petition to Save Futsal in England. You can do that by clicking this link right here!
