CJ October 2013.Indd 1 20/09/2013 12:26 PROUD and HONOURED Club Journal October 2013 The magazine for all CIU members 75p THE UNION’S SUPPORT IS NEEDED MORE THAN EVER An economic recovery may be on its way but clubs are continuing Football strip to feel the effects of the recession and that means the Union’s support and advice is needed more than ever. We continue to see clubs wait till things are too late before seeking the advice of the Union. All our Branch Secretaries are or have been long-serving club officials and know the problems that face clubs but too many Committees bury their heads in the sand and refuse to acknowledge that they are in trouble. Then when they do find themselves in trouble they take the false economy of trying to save a small amount of money by leaving the Union. As well as our legal and financial expertise we have behind us a team of National Account companies whose services can save your club the price of their fee many times over. Add to that the Union’s education courses and their range of sporting competitions and it remains one of the best bargains around. FLAGSHIP CLUB As we report on Pages 10 and 11 Canley Social Club in Coventry, once one of the flagship clubs of the Midlands and the first to receive a grant from the National Lottery, chose to leave the Union in 2000 and its long slow decline had its final chapter this year.

The five-a-side competition will be held at the Marveld Resort recreational park in Groenlo in the Netherlands, just 25 miles south of TR’s office in Oldenzaal. The competition has evolved over the last 35 years to include firefighters, military personnel, and other individuals responsible for the safety of others, and now attracts more than 200 teams from 54 countries from all over the world. TR is sponsoring the teams from the Met’s Sutton branch by paying for their match kits. The Sutton teams, who are travelling to the event for the 8th consecutive year, are entering two categories this year: the Men’s team and the Men’s over 45s team. The tournament sees each team competing in 16 minute games, firstly in a group stage, and then in knockout rounds before the finals decide the winners of the coveted tournament trophies. PC Mark Towler, who has been organising the Sutton teams’ involvement for the last eight years and plays in the Men’s over 45s team, says: “We’ve had an overwhelming response this year from people wanting to join our squads, and 2017 will see us taking our biggest group yet to the Netherlands.

    Wisla Kraków v Blackburn Rovers FC MATCH PRESS KIT Wisly, Krakow Thursday, 19 October 2006 - 16:45 local time Group E Wisła Kraków will be hoping to make their European experience count as English side Blackburn Rovers FC head to Poland for the first match of their UEFA Cup Group E campaign. • The two teams have never met before in European competition. • Wisła boast a wealth of experience having made 74 appearances in European competition, winning 34, drawing 16 and losing 24. • However, they are yet to tackle English opposition in any of those matches and will be eager to make a positive start against Blackburn. • The Lancashire team have not enjoyed many happy times in European competition since making their first appearance in the 1994/95 UEFA Cup, going down to a 3-2 aggregate defeat by Trelleborgs IF of Sweden. • Of their 18 European games to date, Blackburn have won just two, drawing seven and losing nine. They beat Rosenborg BK 4-1 in the final game of their only UEFA Champions League group stage campaign in 1995/96, while a 2-0 win against FC Salzburg earned them the 4-2 aggregate win that put them through to this season's UEFA Cup group stage. • Blackburn secured their only previous success in a European tie on away goals against PFC CSKA Sofia in the 2002/03 UEFA Cup. • The Ewood Park side have met Polish opponents twice, taking on Wisła's arch-rivals Legia Warszawa twice in their ill-fated 1995/96 UEFA Champions League campaign. Polish international Jerzy Podbrozny scored the only goal in Warsaw in a 1-0 win for Legia before the sides drew 0-0 in the rematch in Blackburn.

  • Football Agents in the Biggest Five European Football Markets an Empirical Research Report
    FOOTBALL AGENTS IN THE BIGGEST FIVE EUROPEAN FOOTBALL MARKETS AN EMPIRICAL RESEARCH REPORT FEBRUARY 2012 Raffaele Poli, CIES Football Observatory, University of Neuchâtel Giambattista Rossi, João Havelange Scholarship, Birkbeck University (London) With the collaboration of Roger Besson, CIES Football Observatory, University of Neuchâtel Football agent portrayed by the Ivorian woodcarver Bienwélé Coulibaly Executive summary While intermediaries acting in the transfers of footballers have existed since almost the birth of the professional game, the profession of agent was not officially recognised until 1991 when FIFA established the first official licensing system. In November 2011, there were 6,082 licensed agents worldwide: 41% of them were domiciled within countries hosting the big five European leagues: England, Spain, Germany, Italy and France. This research project firstly investigates shares in the representation market of players in the five major European championships. By presenting the results of a survey questionnaire, it analyses the socio-demographic profile of licensed football agents in the above mentioned countries, the business structure of their activity, the different kinds of services provided, and the way in which they are performed from a relational point of view (network approach). The analysis of shares highlights that the big five league players’ representation market is highly concentrated: half of the footballers are managed by 83 football agents or agencies. Our study reveals the existence of closed relational networks that clearly favors the concentration of players under the control of few agents. Footballers are not equally distributed between intermediaries. Conversely, dominant actors exist alongside dominated agents. One fifth of the agents having answered to our questionnaire manage the career of half of the players represented on the whole.
