The downfall of eurosport.com


A few months ago one of the most visited sport information websites ( www.eurosport.com) was bought by the giant web services provider Yahoo. This might have brought some good money into the pockets of the people who owned eurosport but became a huge disappointment for the visitors of the old site.
The new site removed all the stats from most of the football leagues, and the new owners ignore all the requests for getting the stats back from the site visitors.
Football fans all over Europe have stopped visiting the site since Yahoo bought it, this is seen very easily just by looking at the number of visits the site had in the past months . If you know people with management roles in Yahoo please contact them and ask them to bring the old stats back, the sport fans all over Europe need it badly.

New blog on air

Sunday ,21st October 2007, this is the day in which this site starts. Oh, just another sport blog some would say, well I can't argue with that , and I will try in the next weeks to prove you ,the visitor, that this blog is one worth reading. As this project is at its beginning I will focus at start on 5 sports, 4 of them you can already see , the 5th one I will leave up to you , in a poll open till the end of 2007. In the meantime, I will focus on writing quality articles concerning football , formula 1, ski jumping and biathlon. I also intend to write some articles about events taking place in the sport info business, starting with my comments about what is happening when a good full of info site is taken over by a huge player in the internet industry (the aquisition of eurosport.com by yahoo).
