Champions League Final: Liverpool vs AC Milan

Filed under Business, Liverpool

My prediction, Liverpool will win Champions League 2007 with a small margin. Either it be 1-0, 2-1, 3-2, 4-3 etc. Steven Gerrard will become a match winner. No penalty shoot-out anymore though Liverpool have Pepe Reina! And Rafa Benitez is a master tactician of European football.

It’s all right if you don’t like football. But you must know one fact, football is a multi-billion industry. I repeat, multi-billion. Football is the most popular sport in the world. World Cup is the dream of every player and UEFA Champions League is the most hardest competition in the world. English Premier League is the most expensive league on the earth. And Malaysia … er… no comment.

Let us look what type of business you can do with football even though you dislike it.

1. Restaurant / Cafe

I don’t know why, Malay restaurant simply choose to telecast Akademi Fantasia rather than English Premier League. Just a simple comparison, during English FA Cup Final last weekend all 3 kedai mamak (I had a dinner at Bangi during the final) were full of Manchester United & Chelsea fans. And Malay restaurant which aired AF Final … *sigh*

2. Jersey / merchandise

Fanatic football fans are all crazy. They will collect everything to show their passion to their beloved team (Hey, me just follow haircut style of Harry Kewell ;) ) You could sell anything from jersey, flag, towel, t-shirt, watch, poster, car sticker and others to them. I’ve met a Liverpool fan who spent RM 900 just to buy a classic original Liverpool jersey.

3. Blogging about football

I just do it ;)

Business / Investing Lesson Learned

A simple business principle in this topic is, if you’re not a market leader (G-14 Group) , just follow what a market leader does. If you’re not managing multi-million of funds to invest, don’t try to counter them. If you are not following the market, you’re the most fool among the fools. Just try to tap in with them.

Why do you want to sell UPB-MyTeam jersey if you know you could sell Liverpool jersey & merchandises much more better?
