[QUOTE="mhnessie, post: 528220, member: 4324"] It depends what is most important to you. We had this discussion here before - just take ticket prices for example. They are still affordable in Germany. My two season tickets for HSV are 360 Euros each, that means roundabout 22 Euros per home game, thats affordable. The cheapest season ticket for the standing area is about 180 Euros or 11 Euros per game. German stadiums are modern, quite new and well-attended. Personally very important to me - no mess with profit oriented owners who might think about changing the club crest or even team colors if it could help the marketing department to sell the "product" better. Just think of "Hull City Tigers" or Cardiff, well known as the Bluebirds, and whose owner decided to change the team colors to red - ridiculous. :rolleyes: Btw- to me Football is not a product, its part of our culture ! I know, this may sound weird if you are growing up in a professional sports system like in the USA where all is nothing but business. And no doubt that the EPL is the largest market and most popular football/soccer league in the world, but its not the most successful league anymore. Clubs are heavily indebted, ticket prices are nearly unaffordable and the National team is mediocre or even less. [/QUOTE]
