Research




Text Box: Average Premier League player salary: £44,000 – a week 2.29million a year


Text Box: Representation – Footballers. While the individual actions of some footballers matter, and often attract a frenzy of media attention, we should also consider the positive role football players and clubs are having on their communities. There are evidence-based examples of how the footballing community uses the influence of players to drive positive change, such as through programmes like Premier League Reading Stars that uses football as a hook to change the attitudes of reluctant readers and improve their literacy skills.
 










Agents
Football agents, for many, epitomise everything wrong with the game today. But they are are motivated by their client's welfare, not by money, they argue. 

Highest-priced matchday ticket

Despite their lowest-priced ticket being a reasonable £27, Arsenal charge the most for a single, standard entry. It could set you back as much as £97 to enter the Emirates on match day.

The film follows Manchester City in the wake of the club's takeover by Sheikh Mansour through the 2009-2010 season, capturing their emotions in victory and defeat. Whilst the documentary will also give an "access all areas" view into Manchester City Football Club including footage from the dressing room, boardroom and players' homes such as Carlos Tevez[8] with exclusive in-depth interviews from chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak and manager Roberto Mancini.
Although the film reviews the highs and lows of the 2009-10 season and the transformation of the club since September 2008, the film places heavy emphasis on the Manchester City supporters and what it means to be a football supporter. The film documents a group of Manchester City fans as they follow their team across the country in their 1995 Renault Espace nicknamed, "Helios"

I just finished watching this movie which gives you a good inside view of the lives of some "hardcore" MC-fans. These guys really don't have a life, and the worst part is they don't even realize it. I mean, if the most imported things in your life are your local soccerclub(where no locals are playing) and some pub, you're living in a very small world. Or maybe it is because you're living in a very small world, these things are so important to you......hmm, might be something to chew on for a psychiatrist. Don't get me wrong, i'm a soccerfan myself, but these guys are really pathetic in my book. I wonder what they would do when their club stopped to exist tomorrow??
