  • 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).

  • Concacaf Club Index 2021
    Concacaf Club Index 2021 CONCACAF CLUB INDEX 2021 The draw for the 2021 Scotiabank Concacaf League is set for June 16th and Concacaf has now unveiled the slot allocation ranking for positioning in the Scotiabank Concacaf League (SCL) draw. The allocation ranking has determined the seeding of clubs for the upcoming edition of the SCL. Clubs qualify for the Scotiabank Concacaf League based on criteria set by the respective Member Associations (i.e. tournament champion, runner-up, Cup champion, etc.). The specific method of qualification for each club results in an assigned slot to each qualified club (i.e. CRC 2, CRC 3, etc.), which is used as the basis for the draw’s seeding. The system does not rank individual clubs. It is based on the on-field performance of the various clubs of the same Member Association that have occupied those respective qualifying slots. For example, each year Nicaragua qualifies two clubs to the Scotiabank Concacaf League. Per the competition regulations, the 2020 Apertura or 2021 Clausura champion with the most accumulated points in the 2020-21 season will be assigned slot NCA1. The total points awarded to NCA1 (shown in the table below) are not those obtained by a single Nicaraguan club in previous appearances, but rather those obtained by the last five Nicaraguan clubs that qualified as NCA1 To determine the total points awarded to a Member Association’s slot(s) (i.e. NCA1) in any single edition of the Scotiabank Concacaf League, Concacaf utilizes the following formula: 2 points for 0.5 Point per 1 Point for
