In eight short years English football was completely transformed. In 1989, with clubs already banned from Europe, the Hillsborough disaster tragically exposed football`s crumbling groups, self-serving administ-ration and callous neglect of iys followers. Football was in disgrace. Who could imagine that now? Today, cleaned up and sitting down, fotball is the sport of the 90s, much hyped ny the newly adoring media. But football is more than a game in recovery. It is now big business. Since the Taylor report forced English clubs to spend 600 million rebuilding their grounds and since Sky and the BBCp put 1 billion into the game, serious businessmen have arrived in football and have mostly been welcomed because of the money they were investing into the long-term health of the game.

This text uses statistical and documentary evidence to illustrate how football works as a business, and the techniques of business strategy to explain why some clubs are winners and others are not. After a historical description of football's finances, the book moves to a contemporary analysis of the state of the game financially. Embedded in the text are various analyses of the modern English game including a league table of major teams that compares success on the field with that off the field since the war.

The concept of First and Ten on the Twenty..Is it Football, Business or Life? was derived from the following universal concept-- one has to go through the thirty- yard line before one gets to the forty, and then the forty- yard line until one gets to the fifty- yard line, reaching the halfway point before progressing through another fifty yards to score a touchdown . The same is true in business and in life. All progress and achievements are built on incrementalism. While this was not the only comparison between business and life to football, the books concept was born. Football is more than a game; there is a process for accomplishment and success built into it. It is a process that can be replicated in both business and in life, even if one is not a devout football fan. Watching and observing numerous football games, the process began to clarify and to take shape. In First and Ten on The Twenty is it Football Business or Life? topics are covered such as Attitude, Preparation, The Fumble, The Person in The Skybox, Creating Fans, Crossing the Goal Line, The Defense-Obstacles, The Draft, Preparation and much more. The book details twenty-five distinct items that will greatly assist in creating a well organized and thought out plan. To quote the book, A great attitude coupled with a well thought out and executed plan is the path to success. A great attitude without a plan is only a party. You bring the attitude and First and Ten on the Twenty is it Football, Business or Life? will provide the process to create the plan for your success.

This edited book delves into several aspects of sports and sports management from a vantage of uncertainty and turbulence unleashed initially by COVID-19. The book, divided into three broad sections, deals in strategy and governance of sports organizations, use and evolution of technology in sports, and sports consumption and media. It starts from the backdrop of how sport assumed a new-found importance in people's lives while reeling under several phases of pandemic-induced lockdowns. Consumers felt how integral sports was in their lives when there were no live games to watch and bond on. Players, leagues, organizers, and media are still recovering, along with viewers, as sports makes a tentative comeback in our lives. COVID-19 was a precursor of the disruptions to come. Both the supply and demand sides have taken note of those disturbances to prepare themselves for any such potential derailments. The organizations, franchises, athletes, media, health care, logistics on sports have been reworking their strategies to keep coping with uncertainties. On the other hand, the consumers have transformed their sports consumption behavior over these two years, aided by the enormous technological changes. Such a backdrop paved the way for researchers to understand how the sports industry has dealt with this impact and has rediscovered itself to take its coveted spot. This book is a snapshot of several global sports changes and how they continue to evolve in an increasingly turbulent and uncertain world. It will be a rich resource not only for academics studying sports management, but also event management organizations, administrators, and policymakers.
