The significance of the research subject depends on the interest in hosting mega-events such as the Olympic Games and the World Fairs, which generate a competition among cities. Turkish cities are recently being involved in this competition. In addition to that, mega-events have large-scale and long-term impacts on the built environment, which has not been thoroughly discussed in urban studies. The methodology which is based on a qualitative analysis comprises three steps: a historical analysis made on the Olympic host cities, and two case studies. The first case is Athens as the 2004 Olympic city, the second case is Istanbul as an Olympic bid city since 1990. This study recognizes but qualifies the concept of mega- event hosting. It is shown that mega-event hosting is a capacity-building process, whilst it has a potential to generate overdose investments problem in the built environment. The most significant conclusion of the study is that the ability of coping with this problem is correlated with the ability of absorbing the investments made. Key words: mega-event, mega-sports event, mega-event hosting, physical capacity- building, over-capacity problem, absorption capacity, Olympic Games, Olympic host city, bidding, Olympic candidacy. iv ÖZ DEV ETKĐNLĐKLERE EV SAHĐPLĐĞĐ YAPMANIN MEKANSAL ANALĐZĐ: OLĐMPĐYAT KENTLERĐ VE OLĐMPĐYATLARA ADAY KENTLER Erten, Sertaç Doktora, Şehir ve Bölge Planlama Bölümü Tez yöneticisi: Prof. Dr. Đlhan Tekeli Ocak 2008, 236 sayfa Bu tez çalışmasının amacı, dev etkinlikler ve onlara ev sahipliği yapan kentler arasındaki ilişkiye yeni bir bakış açısı getirmektir. Araştırmanın önemi, giderek daha çok kentin Olimpiyat Oyunları, Dünya Fuarları gibi dev organizasyonlara ev sahipliği yapmak istemeleri, bunun için yarışmaları ve bu yarışta Türk kentlerinin de yer almaya başlamasıdır. Ayrıca, dev etkinlikler kapsamında kentlere büyük çaplı yatırımlar yapılması, kentsel araştırma konusudur. Yöntem olarak, Olimpiyat ev sahibi kentlerinin tarihsel analizi ile iki alan araştırmasını içeren nitel bir çalışma geliştirilmiştir. Alan araştırmaları, biri 2004’te Olimpiyatlara ev sahipliği yapmış Atina, diğeri 1990 başından itibaren Olimpiyatlara dört kez üst üste aday olmuş Đstanbul üzerinde yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucunda, dev etkinliklere ev sahipliği yapmanın bir kapasite inşa süreci olduğu ve bu sürecin kapasite fazlası altyapı yatırımları problemi doğurma gücü olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Araştırmanın en önemli bulgusu, bu problemle baş etme becerisi, kentlerin bu yatırımları hazmetme becerileri ile ilişkili olmasıdır. Anahtar sözcükler: dev etkinlik, dev spor etkinliği, dev-etkinlik ev sahipliği, fiziksel kapasite inşası, kapasite fazlası altyapı problemi, hazmetme kapasitesi, Olimpiyat Oyunları, Olimpiyat kenti, yarışma, Olimpiyat adaylığı. v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor Prof. Dr. Đlhan Tekeli for his sincere support throughout the study.

European Athletics is delighted to be back in Greece for the 2015 European Athletics Team Championships First League in Heraklion. Staging an event is always an organisational challenge and I extend my thanks to the Heraklion 2015 Local Organising Committee, its staf and volunteers who, with the assistance of European Athletics, continue to work hard to make the event a success. I also wish to pay tribute to the invaluable support of the national sponsors and suppliers supporting the event. Located on the beautiful island of Crete, the stadium hosted part of the football tournament during the 2004 Athens Olympic Games and is currently the home ground of Greek Superleague football team Ergotelis. Crete forms a signiicant part of the economy and cultural heritage of Greece. It was once the centre of the Minoan civilization, which is regarded as the earliest recorded civilization in Europe.

If their fortunes could not have differed more greatly from four years ago, something similar could be said for Spain. • Spain drew 1-1 with Greece in their second outing at UEFA EURO 2004™ before a 1-0 defeat by Portugal then sent them spinning out of the tournament. Luis Aragonés's team, by contrast, made sure of their quarter-final place with a game to spare on Saturday after a last-gasp victory against Sweden. • David Villa's 92nd-minute goal snatched three points against Sweden after Zlatan Ibrahimović (34) had cancelled out Fernando Torres' 15th-minute opener. Villa built on his opening-game exploits against Russia, scoring a hat-trick (20, 44, 75) before Cesc Fàbregas (90+1) registered his first international goal in a 4-1 triumph. • Spain went into the teams' UEFA EURO 2004™ meeting in Porto as favourites and took a 28th-minute lead through Fernando Morientes, but a 66th-minute Angelos Charisteas strike earned Greece a share of the spoils.

    UEFA-Abschlussbericht: Effizienzpotenziale im strategischen Stadionmanagement Effizienzpotenziale im strategischen Stadionmanagement Abschlussbericht zum UEFA-Forschungsstipendium 1 Bayreuth, den 31. März 2016 UEFA-Abschlussbericht: Effizienzpotenziale im strategischen Stadionmanagement Vorwort „Vielleicht sollten wir Spieler einfach zusammenlegen und selbst ein neues Stadion bauen.“ (Stefan Effenberg, 2000) Seit Ende der 1990er Jahre durchlebt die europäische Stadionwelt eine Renaissance. Das Zitat des ehemaligen Spielführers vom FC Bayern München – zur Stadiondiskus- sion in der bayerischen Landeshauptstadt – verdeutlicht dabei überspitzt die wirt- schaftliche Relevanz und finanzielle Problematik von Stadioninvestitionen im Profifuß- ball. Aufgrund der erheblichen Einnahmepotenziale moderner Stadien verglichen mit traditionellen Spielstätten, sind Fußballstadien nicht mehr nur emotional aufgeladene, mitunter nostalgische Orte, sondern Ausgangspunkt für die Entwicklung des europäi- schen Fußballs. Allerdings geht mit den Potenzialen moderner Stadien auch ein er- höhtes finanzielles Risiko einher. Oftmals beobachtbare Überkapazitäten und mithin unzureichende Auslastung der Veranstaltungsstätte sind ein augenscheinliches Indiz ökonomischer Ineffizienz und führen im schlimmsten Fall sogar in den finanziellen Ruin. Es stellt sich deshalb die Frage, welche interdependenten Beziehungen im Sta- dionmanagement vorherrschen, die gezielt zur Erhöhung der „Stadioneffizienz“ ge- steuert werden können. Die vorliegende Forschungsarbeit basiert auf

Yet if Turkey are underdogs, nobody will be underestimating Fatih Terim's side who have captured the imagination at UEFA EURO 2008™ with their ever more miraculous comebacks. • After losing their opening game 2-0 to Portugal, Turkey revived their hopes by coming from behind to defeat co-hosts Switzerland, Semih Şentürk cancelling out a first-half Murat Yakin goal before Arda Turan snatched all three points two minutes into added time. • If that was dramatic, Terim's team raised the bar even higher in their last Group A match as they fought back from two behind against the Czech Republic. Trailing to strikes from Jan Koller and Jaroslav Plašil, they halved the deficit through Arda's 75th-minute goal before Nihat Kahveci's quick-fire double on 87 and 89 minutes turned the game on its head.
