Super. Teams ignore older fans because of concepts like lifetime value. They ignore how many of us support a team or follow a sport because of grandparents. Nothing entrenches emotion like a little respect from them.
Real Betis invited 11 of the club's oldest members to be mascots, a thank you for their loyalty and to support International Day for Older Persons 💚 How lovely 🥹

More to come. It's a race to the bottom. But if people won't pay for quality content then what do you expect?
Three reputable football websites have been taken over by parasite SEO firm Clickout Media. Now AI-reporters are churning out error-strewn copy to help promote gambling websites pressgazette.co.uk/news/ai-r…

Fascinating thread. Far too many BS, unchecked stories going out on legitimate outlets
This is an entirely untrue news story. A wild claim made by a fake ‘journalist’ on social media, and several prominent journalists have fallen for it, including at @thetimes This is very niche but I will explain…

So the UK are banning social media for under-16s. For me, this will be a big change for sports teams and their approach to social, given the emphasis on enticing young fans. Yes, everyone will say "they can just get around the ban". And they can, of course.

This will ripple out across Europe too, despite the lawyers attempts to stem the bleeding. Sports teams, with their (often dubious) pretensions to social good and CSR, may have to change their approach.

Smoking and betting (along with alcohol and porn) are restricted to minors. They can not be advertised on the front of football shirts. Social media has just been put in the same bracket

Fascinating results but so much changes after that. When kids get phones they stop reading. Social factors play such a part in sport participation. Finding their tribes and identities
Gen Alpha kids are more interested in, well, almost anything else but watching pro sports... (Morning Consult survey of 1,000+ U.S. parents of kids ages 0-12, May 2026)

How NOT to do a kit launch video. Young audiences are looking to hammer #AIslop. And this is bad AI slop #digisport #smsports youtube.com/watch?v=4Q2EC2BL…

Incredible success story in the sport-entertainment space. Would this ever work in the U.K.?

This is marvellous
This would be hilarious if Europe's answer were NOT to create administrative bloat to manage enshitification.

Fascinating to see the reaction to this interview. General fans been critical, mostly on the optics Mansfield fans have supported/defended them Because they argue, these two have worked hard, grown the club organically over long term & given Stags' fans something to be proud of
One of the most chaotic Sky Sports interviews you are ever likely to see! 😆 Mansfield Town's CEO and chairman sat down to discuss their FA Cup draw with Arsenal but the conversation was derailed by their kids and pet dog Casper 🐕

Well chosen and executed by Matchroom. Was surprised it has not been done before. Then again, in the U.K. at least, boxing is one of the few sports where fans are content for their stars to earn obscene amounts. It is a negative elsewhere
