  • Letting Time Serve You: Boot Camps and Alternative
    LEAGUE STRUCTURE & STADIUM RENT-SEEKING—THE ROLE OF ANTITRUST REVISITED David Haddock, Tonja Jacobi & Matthew Sag* ―O wad some Power the giftie gie us‖† Abstract Professional North American sporting teams receive enormous public funding for new and renovated stadiums after threatening to depart their hometowns, or by actually moving elsewhere. In contrast, English sporting teams neither receive much public money for such projects, nor move towns. This Article argues that no inherent cultural or political transatlantic variations cause the differences; rather, it is the industrial organization of sports in the two countries—the structure of league control—that enables rent-seeking by American teams but not by their English counterparts. Cross-country time series data contrasting American professional football and baseball stadiums with English soccer grounds support our claim, as does data contrasting the stadiums of geographically flexible National Football League teams with those of functionally immobile major collegiate football teams. North American sports leagues are cartels: they control entry of teams, then collaborate to maximize effective rent-seeking, stave off competition, and keep prices high. In most of the world, competitive merit determines entrance into leagues via a system known as promotion and relegation, which demotes the worst performing teams in one competitive tier to the next lower tier at season‘s end, simultaneously promoting an equivalent number of top teams from the division below. The fluidity created by promotion and relegation severely undermines the credibility of a team‘s threat to leave town by creating alternative, less costly entry points into the league.

It was only their second World Cup appearance and they have not been back since. It took Turkey ten attempts to qualify for their first UEFA European Championship final tournament, and after losing all three matches at EURO '96 they reached the quarter-finals at UEFA EURO 2000 under Mustafa Denizli. They went one step further eight years later in Austria/ Switzerland, a dramatic penalty shoot-out win over Croatia putting Fatih Terim's team into the semi-finals, where they lost 3-2 to Germany. After missing out in Poland/Ukraine, they returned to the finals at UEFA EURO 2016 by qualifying as the best third-placed side over the nine preliminary sections.

  • 03-The-Digestive-Nov-2019
    Editor Notes Alex Everson And so the season rolls on, as we move past the last International break of 2019, Reading now face a gruelling stretch of 10 games in the next 40 days up to and including Fulham away. The last month has provided some respite for us Royals fans as we have seen an uptick in fortunes under the start of the Bowen tenure, as Jordan looks at in his review. ReadingDeep returns to examine how Bowen is differing his tactical approach to that of his predecessor. Alongside those, we also have a throwback to the glory days of both the Simod Cup as Dave Stevens touches on the glory at Wembley, with a reminder that sometimes managers with no experience, no wins and sitting in a relegation zone sometimes turn out ok from Matthew Williamson who ventures back to the McDermott hiring. We also have a piece on the importance football plays in many fans lives, and how it can provide both comfort, and escapism for many. This is one of the more poignant pieces we've received to date and is a must read. If you want to get involved with writing in the next issue of The Digestive, please don't hesitate to contact me on Twitter @Readingfanman, or fill in the form on our website www.elmparkroyals.com We will speak again at Christmas time, but until then, get behind the team, and fingers crossed that the current unbeaten run perhaps is the start of the upswing we've all been waiting for.
