Editorial Reviews
Review
"[This book] is solid scholarship, providing extensive documentation, a wonderful reference list, and is profusely illustrated with graphs and charts.... The style is lively and informative.... I highly recommend it to those sports economists studying the European scene, or for those looking for a technically proficient jump-off for their own analysis of NA or European sports team data." Review of Industrial Organization
Product Description
This book presents an original economic analysis of the English professional football industry. The economic influences on decisions taken by owners, managers, players and spectators are all considered, using theoretical and empirical methods of economic investigation. The empirical analysis draws on English club-level data, with extensive international comparisons. Concludes with an extended discussion of a number of major economic policy issues affecting the future of the football industry, including European super league proposals, contractual arrangements in the players' labor market, and football's evolving relationship with the broadcasting media.
