The Cost of Modern Football

  • Sam Smith
The project highlights the manner in which fan ownership can now have an effect on the cost of ticket prices in the modern age of European football. By using a colour coded map of Europe, I was able to display the countries in the top five leagues of Europe where clubs are owned by the fans and then compare this to the revenue made by the clubs during that particular season. After this comes the comparison of the cost of matchday tickets and attendance by the same clubs during the same period to highlight that fan ownership can have an impact on the price of tickets in the modern footballing age.
