jay1992 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I'm currently in my third year of study at Cardiff Met university and for my dissertation I'm looking into the effect commercialisation has had on football and if the importance of money and the need to make money from football and the fans in particular is having a negative effect in any way? I am looking for opinions on whether you believe the need to make money, and the importance of money to Professional Footballers and Clubs is ruining the game or not? Is the cost of supporting your team driving you away from the matches? and finally if you think success in professional football is possible without enourmous financial backing? Any replies would be really appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackNwhites Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Gather a collection of sound bites of all league clubs fans booing, that should make an impression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello chap, if you could just do a list of questions you'd like answered, around five or six questions worth about a paragraph of explanation each time, that might help. That's rather a 'large' question you've got there that could be answered in alot of ways, might be best to have some very clear questions about for example rising ticket prices or expensive club shops etc. It'd help you get some more replies I suspect.

Animal is a Ram Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 This is the best way how I can explain I think money has ruined the EPL. Arsenal ticket vs. Bayern Munich: £95. Season ticket for Bayern Munich: £95 - and they are the cheapest in the Bundesliga. Also, with said season ticket: Home games in the first group stage of the Uefa Champions League are already included in the price of seat season tickets.

jay1992 Posted March 8, 2013 Author Share Posted March 8, 2013 Hello chap, if you could just do a list of questions you'd like answered, around five or six questions worth about a paragraph of explanation each time, that might help. That's rather a 'large' question you've got there that could be answered in alot of ways, might be best to have some very clear questions about for example rising ticket prices or expensive club shops etc. It'd help you get some more replies I suspect. Thats a good point. I would specifically like answer to whether any fans think that money has too much power over success in professional football? If you believe that Derby could return to the premier league, and compete, without enourmous financial backing? Answers to either would be really useful.

dcfc_mugman Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Unfortunately sport is big business, especially in the UK where most people have a gloomy outlook on life and seek their thrills come the weekend. With this in mind it is very difficult to establish a set of rules or regulations to dictate how money is spent or requested - take for example the forthcoming introduction that hopes for clubs to 'spend what they earn' (and therefore cutting out the potential for clubs amassing astronomical levels of debt) - some clubs are even looking to get around that, allowing the companies owned by their multi-billionaire owners (take Etihad/Man City as an example) to buy stadium 'naming rights'. In doing this, they are able to 'negotiate' vastly-overvalued sums of money into the club, fudging their accounts so the money just comes in under a different category of earnings on their published accounts... Business is business. You'll never control it, so let's just put the kettle on and wait for this whole thing to blow over. The world will probably melt soon, be extinguished in a ball of flames or be blown up by a 'playboy' Korean dictator anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
