  • Theory of the Beautiful Game: the Unification of European Football
    Scottish Journal of Political Economy, Vol. 54, No. 3, July 2007 r 2007 The Author Journal compilation r 2007 Scottish Economic Society. Published by Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 9600 Garsington Road, Oxford, OX4 2DQ, UK and 350 Main St, Malden, MA, 02148, USA THEORY OF THE BEAUTIFUL GAME: THE UNIFICATION OF EUROPEAN FOOTBALL John Vroomann Abstract European football is in a spiral of intra-league and inter-league polarization of talent and wealth. The invariance proposition is revisited with adaptations for win- maximizing sportsman owners facing an uncertain Champions League prize. Sportsman and champion effects have driven European football clubs to the edge of insolvency and polarized competition throughout Europe. Revenue revolutions and financial crises of the Big Five leagues are examined and estimates of competitive balance are compared. The European Super League completes the open-market solution after Bosman. A 30-team Super League is proposed based on the National Football League. In football everything is complicated by the presence of the opposite team. FSartre I Introduction The beauty of the world’s game of football lies in the dynamic balance of symbiotic competition. Since the English Premier League (EPL) broke away from the Football League in 1992, the EPL has effectively lost its competitive balance. The rebellion of the EPL coincided with a deeper media revolution as digital and pay-per-view technologies were delivered by satellite platform into the commercial television vacuum created by public television monopolies throughout Europe. EPL broadcast revenues have exploded 40-fold from h22 million in 1992 to h862 million in 2005 (33% CAGR).

ROCHDALE MAYFIELD V HUNSLET CLUB PARKSIDE MANCHESTER REGIONAL ARENA £1 VECTOR LOGOS NEEDED FOR SUPER LEAGUE AND CHALLENGE CUP kingstonepress.co.uk /kingstonepresscider @KingstoneCider WELCOME TO THE 2016 CONFERENCE CHALLENGE TROPHY If ever you wondered what top quality community Rugby League is like, then get along to any Kingstone Press National Conference League game, and I am sure you won’t be disappointed. Today you have two of the finest of 2016 competing the Conference Challenge Trophy Final , with Premier Division Rochdale Mayfield hoping they will have enough firepower and experience to see off a Hunslet Club Parkside team that has swept all before them this campaign, including last year’s trophy winners, Leigh Miners Rangers. Parkside have a famous past as a prodigious provider of top quality professional and international players, with Gary Schofield OBE being but one. But it is to their future they are looking and with the second division Championship secured weeks ago, they have their sights set firstly on a Challenge Cup and Divisional Championship double, before no doubt looking for a third successive promotion from Division One at the end of the 2017 campaign. For Rochdale Mayfield, this Final is the opportunity to signal their return to the very pinnacle of the game outside of the professional ranks. There was a time when they dominated the Regional Pennine League with over a decade of back to back Championships. But, since joining the NCL, they have challenged but not yet succeeded in lifting a piece of silverware.

Copyright and re-use policy See http://shura.shu.ac.uk/information.html Sheffield Hallam University Research Archive http://shura.shu.ac.uk Introduction Principally, professional team sports are heavily linked to the concepts of uncertainty of outcome, competitive balance and profit and utility maximisation, and there is extensive literature relating to professional team sports in this context (e.g. Buraimo, Frick and Hickfang and Simmons, 2015; Fort, 2015; Kesenne, 2015; Leach and Szymanski, 2015; Sloane, 2015; Vrooman, 2015). Professional sports league are primarily structured in such ways to drive fan engagement and to make the sport an attractive 'product' for consumers. However, the way in which certain leagues are structured ultimately has implications for the relative success or failure of individual clubs competing within the league. According to Thomas (1997) the sporting firm can be viewed as the 'league' which produces 'joint' products to insure matches are played between teams in a season-long competition.

Our Objectives Sports Chaplaincy UK is the charity that facilitates, trains, supports and encourages chaplains for the benefit of the whole rugby league community; people of faith and of no faith. It is recognised that there is a need for high quality pastoral and spiritual care. This generally involves visiting offices and training facilities on a weekly basis and being available to listen and bring support to all. Each chaplain will bring with them a vast range of skills, knowledge and expertise. A chaplain should be extremely supportive, bring a non-judgemental, listening ear and an empathetic and compassionate presence. Sports Chapaincy UK Values Presence, talks about being there. A Chaplain becomes a connection point from which a journey of building trust and building relationship begins. Excellence, in everything that a Chaplain does and say, a Chaplain should be continually looking to improve their pastoral skills which are extremely valuable. Relationship, Chaplains are by their very nature relational, so when engaging with people they need to be sensitive and compassionate. Confidential, a Chaplain must be a trusted and safe port of call. Humility, a Chaplain must be beyond reproach which talks about integrity with a focus on serving and not seeking kudos for themselves. Sports Chaplaincy UK has had the privilege of providing chaplaincy to the rugby league community for over 20 years.
