On 22nd and 23rd June 2023, the Soccer Mad Boffins were in London to attend a British Academy of Management (BAM) sponsored event at Birkbeck, in University of London's City campus.
The two day event featured eight academic papers as well as a key note by Richard McDermott, company secretary at the Football Association (and Birkbeck graduate).
Our own paper was on the early years of the FA, but others focussed on football clubs in England, Scotland and Brazil, sustainability, regulation, and more. The common approach was to examine the way that club football has evolved, using historical or longitudinal studies.
Special thanks to the BAM Business & Management History Special Interest Group, and to our friends at Birkbeck especially Sean Hamil and Professor Geoff Walters who helped to organise the event with us, and to everyone who chaired sessions.
Here are some photos of our presentation:
