**Affirmed position.** Decentralised Governance in Football states that blockchain-based DAO governance can enhance transparency and accountability in football clubs, alongside democratised decision-making and automated smart contracts. This extends Kaal's account of DAO accountability into a distinct organizational setting. The abstract does not isolate immutable recording as the causal mechanism or measure the claimed accountability gain.

**Status.** affirmed  **Published.** 2026-08-08

**Holds when.**

- The response is limited to the retrieved source proposition and mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.
- External evidence level: abstract indexed.
- Mapping review tier: substantively reviewed abstract-level extension.
- Primary mapping confidence: 0.62.
- The primary mapping cleared the automated ambiguity test; substantive scope remains review-bound.
- Evidence is limited to an exact proposition in a Crossref-indexed abstract; full text was not reviewed.
- No relationship is treated as external endorsement, citation, causation, or validation of a broader Kaal claim.
- The source states that blockchain-based DAO governance enhances transparency and accountability in football clubs, and its abstract identifies democratised decision-making and automated smart contracts as components of that model. This extends Kaal's immutable-record accountability mechanism into football-club governance, while the abstract does not isolate immutable recording as the causal mechanism or measure the claimed accountability gain.
