This book offers an original Marxist critique of the European
football business. It argues that the Marxist account of the
difference between profits and surplus value is crucial to an
understanding of the fluid and contradictory nature of the
commodification of football. Section one analyses the nature of
modern professional football and section two highlights attempts,
via government agency and football clubs, to corral fans into ever
greater identification with business logic aimed at breaking
traditional social relations. Section three draws on a number of
cases studies across Europe, to analyse how some fans are
attempting to mount a counter ideological response to the assault
of neo-liberalism on the game.
