    Chapter 2 Economic Model of a Professional Football Club in France

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Stirling Online Research Repository Chapter 2 Economic model of a professional football club in France Nicolas Scelles and Wladimir Andreff The economic model of football clubs is a revenue model but also a cost model in relation to their objective. It can be defined as the search for balance between revenues, costs and objective, and the latter can vary: profit maximization, sporting maximization under strict constraint (“hard” constraint), or “soft” budget constraint (Andreff, 2009). In France, the revenue model of football clubs has evolved with time. This mutation fits in the switch from an SSSL (Spectators-Subventions-Sponsors- Local) model to an MMMMG (Media-Magnats-Merchandising-Markets-Global) model at the European level (Andreff & Staudohar, 2000). Before 1914, sport financing came mainly from practitioners (Bourg et Gouguet, 2001, p. 19). Thereafter, with competitions as spectacle, spectators have become the primary source of revenue, ahead of the subsidies granted by the local authorities and industry patrons. Advertising revenues have gradually become more and more important and, in the 1960s and 1970s, sponsorship increased significantly as firms were seeking more direct identification in terms of audience, image, reputation and sales (Andreff et Staudohar, 2000, p. 259) . In France, during the 1970s, operating revenues of first division football clubs came mainly from the spectators, supplemented by subsidies and sponsorship. The SSSL model was at its peak, with its “L” finding its justification in the fact that the revenues were generated from local or national residents. The 1980s is the starting point of a continuous increase in the share of TV rights income for French clubs.

    VOGO Picked by Three New French Clubs and Signs a Distribution Agreement with INFRONT In

    Press Release Montpellier, December 19, 2018 FOOTBALL VOGO picked by three new French clubs Distribution agreement signed with INFRONT in Italy Montpellier-based SportTech company VOGO (ISIN code: FR0011532225 - Ticker: ALVGO) is rolling out its VOGO SPORT spectator solution at several football clubs, both in France and abroad, for the 2018-2019 season. VOGO SPORT solution gains traction in French football On December 2, Toulouse Football Club (TFC) launched the VOGO SPORT solution, for the press and VIPs, in the North stand of the Toulouse Stadium. The club is currently pitching VOGO SPORT as a Premium service, but could shortly extend it to all spectators. The match that day was between TFC and Dijon Football Côte d’Or (DFCO), which integrated VOGO SPORT into its proprietary mobile application this summer. Montpellier Hérault Sport Club (MHSC) subsequently rolled out the VOGO SPORT service for the first time at the Mosson stadium on December 4, for a game against Lille Olympique Sporting Club (LOSC, Lille). This was a strategic decision by the local club, which is due to move to its new Louis Nicollin stadium (capacity of 30,000 seats) by 2022. That same day, at the opposite end of the country, Racing Club de Lens (RC Lens) tested the VOGO SPORT solution for the first time at the Bollaert-Deleis stadium, during a home game against Stade Brestois 29 (SB 29). These latest roll-outs testify to the ground being gained by VOGO among professional French football clubs, most of which play in French premier league, Ligue 1 Conforama. VOGO SPORT first penetrated this market in 2017, when OGC Nice (Olympique Gymnaste Club de Nice) integrated VOGO SPORT’s “Live & Replay” service into its mobile application “Expérience Stade” at the Allianz Riviera stadium.
