  • 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).

Francis Piasecki était le numéro 10 de cette inoubliable équipe, un organisateur sachant aisément se muer en buteur et avant tout un homme de caractère. Durant neuf saisons, de 1977 à 1986, Francis Piasecki porta haut l’étendard du Racing Club de Strasbourg. Une période débutée en fanfare, avec la constitution astucieuse par Gilbert Gress d’une équipe mêlant individualités expérimentés et joueurs prometteurs du cru. A cette ossature alsacienne maintes fois fantasmée se sont greffés de véritables cadres du football français des années 1970 : Novi, Vergnes, Jouve. Piasecki n’était toutefois pas à cet instant un joueur « achevé ». Natif de la vallée de la Fensch, c’est naturellement qu’il débute au Football Club de Metz. Après un court passage à Valenciennes, il croit son heure arrivée au FCM mais fait les frais de la fameuse grève des joueurs de la fin 1972, mouvement national dont il fut perçu comme l’un des meneurs en Moselle. Envoyé à Sochaux, où il ne s’épanouira pas, il rejoint la capitale où Daniel Hechter tente de bâtir une équipe capable de remplir le flambant neuf Parc des Princes. Aux côtés de Dahleb et M’Pelé, Francis Piasecki endosse enfin le rôle de meneur de jeu dont il était privé à Sochaux.

La presencia del Hansa Rostock como último equipo que defendió el pabellón de Alemania Oriental era la confirmación de la unión de los dos estados a lo largo del 1991. Era el reflejo más inmediato de los trascendentes cambios políticos que sacudieron a Europa. También el Dinamo de Kiev fue el último campeón soviético porque como consecuencia de la desintegración de la Unión Soviética se dio paso a un ente deportivo internacional fantasma, la Comunidad de Estados Independientes, para dar espacio legal de manera circunstancial a la nueva conformación de Europa. Yugoslavia también empezaba a desmoronarse como república federal y se registraban los primeros movimientos separatistas.

  • Ethics and Sport in Europe Drugs, Extremism and Other Forms of Discrimination It Is Currently Facing
    SPORTS POLICY AND PRACTICE SERIES Defending ethics in sport is vital in order to combat the problems of corruption, violence, Ethics and sport in Europe drugs, extremism and other forms of discrimination it is currently facing. Sport refl ects nothing more and nothing less than the societies in which it takes place. However, if sport is to continue to bring benefi ts for individuals and societies, it cannot afford to neglect its ethical values or ignore these scourges. The major role of the Council of Europe and the Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport (EPAS) in addressing the new challenges to sports ethics was confi rmed by the 11th Council of Europe Conference of Ministers responsible for Sport, held in Athens on 11 and 12 December 2008. A political impetus was given on 16 June 2010 by the Committee of Ministers, with the adoption of an updated version of the Code of Sports Ethics (Recommendation CM/Rec(2010)9), emphasising the requisite co-ordination between governments and sports organisations. The EPAS prepared the ministerial conference and stepped up its work in an international conference organised with the University of Rennes, which was attended by political leaders, athletes, researchers and offi cials from the voluntary sector. The key experiences described in the conference and the thoughts that it prompted are described in this publication. All the writers share the concern that the end result should be practical action – particularly in terms of the setting of standards – that falls within the remit of the EPAS and promotes the Council of Europe’s core values.
