This book provides a complete picture of the development of competitive
balance in the major European football countries over an extended period
of time, along with some policy prescriptions for the governance of the
European football market.
It presents three new indices which show that European football
competitions become less exciting over time. It is also shown that the
lower the average number of goals per match, the more imperfect the
referee and the stronger the home and away (dis)advantage, the higher the
level of competitive balance will be. In the final chapter it is argued that to
safeguard the competitive balance and the longstanding traditions of
European football, a decommercialization of football is required. Using
standard welfare economic theory, the author shows that free-of-charge
public broadcasting is the preferred policy.
This book is highly relevant for sports economists, higher vocational and
academic students of sports studies and for policymakers in football
governing bodies and competition policy agencies.
