Help decide what goes into FPDS.

FPDS starts small. A new field enters the standard only after the people who use player submissions give their opinion. Agents, club staff and players know how transfers work. We ask you before we decide.

Each consultation asks one question and takes about three minutes. You do not need a GitHub account, and you do not need technical knowledge.
