  • 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).

  • Soccer, Stock Returns and Fanaticism: Evidence from Turkey
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com The Social Science Journal 46 (2009) 594–600 Research note Soccer, stock returns and fanaticism: Evidence from Turkey M. Hakan Berument a,∗, Nildag Basak Ceylan b, Gulin Ogut-Eker c a Department of Economics, Bilkent University, Ankara, Turkey b Department of Management, Atilim University, Ankara, Turkey c Department of Turkish Language and Literature, Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey Abstract This paper assesses the effect of three major soccer teams’ wins on the returns of the Istanbul Stock Exchange (ISE). We argue that the effect of soccer wins on ISE returns increases with the fanaticism of the teams’ supporters. © 2009 Western Social Science Association. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. 1. Introduction This paper reports the estimates of an empirical exercise that ties the success of Turkey’s three major soccer1 teams (Bes¸iktas¸, Fenerbahc¸e and Galatasaray), each having a more or less equal number of fans across the country, to stock market returns by using the daily data from Turkey from July 3, 1987 to November 10, 2006. The hypothesis that we tested in this paper is whether the returns on the Istanbul Stock Exchange (ISE) can be associated with the wins of teams and the strength of the emotional ties that supporters who happen to be brokers/traders have to their teams. To be specific, we are concerned with three questions: (i) Are the wins of the three soccer teams associated with higher returns? (ii) Are the returns different, depending on which team won? (iii) Are these returns tied to the fanaticism of the fans of these three teams? In behavioral finance, emotional and visceral factors are often considered important deter- minants of asset pricing (see Stracca, 2004).

  • Foreign Ownership and Local Fans: Turkish Football Fans' Perspective

These clubs see significant benefits from foreign investment. However, in Turkey, this practice has not yet been implemented. Furthermore, there has been no general discussion about the applicability of this system in Turkish clubs, despite almost all Turkish football clubs being in a state of financial turmoil. To fill this void, this study aims to research the views of Turkish football fans regarding the possible sale of their club to a foreign investor. A total of 1172 football fans across Turkey completed a questionnaire form for the research. The distributions of fans’ views were analyzed by forming crosstabs and using the chi-square test of independence. A total of 66.8% of Turkish fans who participated in the research are against the possible sale of their club to a foreign investor, while 33.2% of the fans support this situation.

  • The Effect of Player Transfers on Stock Prices
    Master Thesis The effect of player transfers on stock prices An event study on European listed football clubs D. de Bakker BSc ANR: 874098 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. L.D.R. Renneboog Second reader / Chairperson: Dr. O.G. De Jonghe Department of Finance Graduation date: 14-11-2016 Abstract This study is conducted in the field of behavioral finance where certain events, in this case player transfers, are linked to asset prices. For 15 listed football clubs, player transfers as well as player and club characteristics have been examined for their effect on the stock price of the accompanying club through affecting the mood of investors. The results show that investors do appreciate both the acquiring of players as well as selling them, since significant higher stock prices were found at the first, second and 9th day after the deal was closed. These effects were also found on the short term, namely for the interval from the day before until the day after the transfer deal. Moreover, the more fees a team receives from transfers, the stronger the positive relationship between transfers and stock returns tends to be. This holds especially for the acquisition of middle aged experienced players, while buying a particular younger or older player for a high fee is followed by a negative impact on the stock price of buying clubs. This confirms the ‘overpricing’ effect partially, since the effect is not incorporated in all transfer making. The higher a club’s interest coverage, the lower stock returns are after sales, while higher stock prices are found after acquisitions whenever the club has high return on assets.

It is stated in the literature that one of the factors affecting the investors' mood is the results of football matches. In this research, the effect of match results of national football teams on stock markets is examined. In this context, England, Italy, France, Spain and Turkey, where football is very popular, are included in the sample. Event study method, which is frequently used in the literature, is used. Findings show that the results of the matches in different countries cause different reactions in the markets; no common result for all countries is obtained. Keywords: National Teams’ Performance, Football Matches, Sports Economics, Cumulative Abnormal Return (CAR) 1. Introduction The idea that individuals are not rational in taking investment decisions is claimed and supported by many researchers especially after the emergence of behavioral finance. Individuals may show irrationality or limited rationality in their investment decisions due to psychological reasons.

    CONTRACTUAL STABILITY IN PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL 0 Contractual Stability in Professional Football: Recommendations for Clubs in a Context of International Mobility Diego F. R. Compaire (Italy/Argentina) Gerardo Planás R.A. (Paraguay) Stefan-Eric Wildemann (Germany) July 2009 This research was written as a Master Thesis for the FIFA International Master (MA) in Management, Law and Humanities of Sport and was awarded the “Professor Madella Award” for the best project of the 9th Edition. CONTRACTUAL STABILITY IN PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL i - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY - “Contractual stability is of paramount importance in football, from the perspective of clubs, players, and the public” FIFA Circular Letter 769. Contemporary football is caught between two very powerful concepts: the freedom of movement of players on the one side and contractual stability on the other. As it was shown by sport historians (Lanfranchi and Taylor, 2001), international migration has been part of football from the beginning. The decisions made by the European Court of Justice in relation to the Bosman case in 1995 entailed some large-scale changes in the transfer system of professional footballers. In particular, players could now freely move within the European Union at the end of their contract as any transfer fees for out-of contract players were declared illegal. Second, the ‘3+2’ rule was abandoned for EU nationals. Certainly, these legal decisions have stimulated the freedom of movement of players. As can be observed from the profile of expatriates in the top 5 European leagues (England, Spain, Italy, Germany and Spain), cultural, historic and structural reasons continue to play a vital role in the migration patterns of players (Poli, 2008).

The book is written as a cross between a scholarly work and a real-life thriller. The status of Turkey as a neutral country made it a center of espionage, a sort of actual equivalent of the film Casablanca . Aspects of the story include the Allied-Axis struggle to get Turkey on their side; the spy rings set up in the Middle East and the Balkans; the attempts of Jews to escape through Turkey; the Allies’ covert war in Greece, Yugoslavia, Hungary, and other countries; and the first accurate account of how the Germans recruited the British ambassador’s valet as a spy, who could have been their most successful agent of the war if only they had listened to his warnings.

  • The Signing of the North Atlantic Treaty
    İşletme Fakültesi Dergisi, Cilt 6, Sayı 2, 2005, 33-57 THE SIGNING OF THE NORTH ATLANTIC TREATY: A CASE FOR MULTILATERALISM Nejat Doğan* ABSTRACT This article demonstrates the adoption of a multilateral mindset by great powers in the aftermath of the Second World War. It argues that after 1945 the United States, Britain, France, and Canada started to cooperate on security issues based on the basic principles of multilateralism. They came to believe that security is an indivisible issue and that cooperation in security issues should be based on reciprocal obligations in such a way of not to discriminate against any participant. Moreover, they believed this cooperation should target a long-term relationship illuminated by mutual understanding rather than quid-pro-quos driven by short-term national interests. Keywords: International organization, international security, multilateralism, the North Atlantic Treaty, NATO. ÖZET Bu makale, büyük güçlerin İkinci Dünya Savaşı sonrası diplomaside spesifik bir yaklaşım olan çoktaraflılığı kabul etmeleri ve bu yaklaşım etrafında işbirliğine gitmelerini konu edinmektedir.
