In other news, the tickets* for the resecheduled Chelsea v Liverpool are now on general sale - for a mere 240gbp each (*non-hospitality Westview)
The old #sportsbiz model of squeezing money out of loyal fans to fund overpaid performers has its best-before date, y'all know right?

💸 “If sport can be considered as a B2C business, it would be re-rated as such, the same way Tech companies are in Silicon Valley: per user!” …and also why those coming from the betting industry are doing rather well in #sportsbiz, and a necessity of B2B2C in #sportstech. 👇

🇮🇳 Interesting how it’s still old methods to engage new audiences in the new regions. Chelsea has just hosted their official fan visit in India, too. Is it the best, forward-looking way for global tier 1 teams? And what about the local teams? #sportsbiz

🏉 Some hard-hitting truths by @RPMComo on how rugby is facing an existential crisis due to the “same old” #sportsgov legacy structure not having a forward-looking vision - and #sportsbiz investors not doing their homework. Make no mistake - applies to other Tier 2 sports, too.

❓Is it even an “overhaul”? Part of me is glad with this long-overdue #sportsgov effort to *preserve* the beautiful game as we know it. But I’m also torn at *conserving* a century-old business model that doesn’t fit modern standards. It may mark the start of a decline. #sportsbiz
