http://pitchinvasion.net/blog/2010/03/1 ... iga-model/In today’s installment of our week-long examination of fan ownership, we turn to Germany. The Bundesliga is often held up as an ideal example of this and a model that English clubs should follow. But, as Terry Duffelen reports, while there is much to admire about the German model, it would be a mistake to see it as a panacea for all football’s problems.
You know when English football is in trouble when it looks to Germany for guidance. Certainly, there is much to be admired about the structure and rules that govern club ownership and management in Germany. However, like all management models, it is not perfect.
A British article from a while ago. But In England, Germany and Australia same issues still apply. Maybe HAL clubs need to start looking at the security of community ownership?
If it means clubs actually making profits, lower ticket prices, higher attendances and live games for free to air TV. Its a definate yes from me!!
