'Most intriguing, however, is Celtic’s decision to expand its esports offering beyond football simulation. The $1bn esports industry has shot to mainstream prominence in recent weeks following the widespread coverage of the Fortnite World Cup. With many major football clubs making inroads into esports, it could be that Celtic’s involvement is a bellwether for other British clubs looking to try their hand at global event'

'It is the thing that many devout football fans dream of; to pull on the shirt of your beloved team in fervent competition. This is exactly what is happening for Celtic fans Sean O’Connor and Shea Sweeney, albeit not in the conventional sense.

O’Connor and Sweeney will be lining up for the Celtic FC Esports team at the Call of Duty World League Championships after the Scottish Premier League champions signed the player’s team this week. The two Scots will compete alongside fellow Brits Ben Bance, Byron Plumridge and Sam Dineley at the military shooter’s most prestigious tournament.

The tournament takes place from the 14-19 August in Los Angeles, with 32 teams battling it out on futuristic shoot ‘em up Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 in an attempt to win a share of the $2m prize pool.

Celtic will become the first British club to sign an esports team for a major competition outside of the FIFA football series. Premier League clubs Manchester City and West Ham have their own dedicated FIFA players, but until now British clubs have not followed the lead of European clubs such as Paris St-Germain and Galatasaray. The French and Turkish clubs have teams competing in other esports such as multiplayer battle arena games Dota 2 and League of Legends.'

he recent Fortnite World Cup in New York drew 2m live viewers from around the world for a total prize pot of $30m (£28m).

'In Europe, revenues are expected to grow 23pc per year to reach €670m by 2023. Deloitte estimated there was around €3.9bn investment in the sector worldwide and 68 merger and acquisition deals as investor interest intensified.

Several of Europe’s professional esports teams have experienced worldwide success. Teams like London-based Fnatic secured $19m of investment earlier this year on the back of success in games like League of Legends, an online fantasy game.

Professional sports teams have also invested in esports. Barcelona FC has launched an esports team for games including Pro Evolution Soccer, as well as other, non-football related video games.

Sam Boor, a sports business expert at Deloitte, said traditional sports teams were increasingly turning to esports as a way to appeal to younger fans who preferred to play games online or stream them on their smartphones. '

Wouldn't be surprised if that's a PWHITE alias.
He's on another thread thanking him....no one does that unless they are him!

[bellesimo1] 14/8/2019 14:25

[homebrewruss] 14/8/2019 14:25

Girdz, yes sorry looks like I got that wrong re the strapline.

Nice to see a picture of the BIDS offices in their tweet though - they don't look too fancy which suggests they are not getting to carried away on office spend at least.

[bellesimo1] 14/8/2019 14:19

niggle, looks like you have a fan...

EA's strap line is not get in the game, it is "it's in the game"

[homebrewruss] 14/8/2019 14:05

Girdz, yes see the actual tweet beneath from BIDS.

Maybe I'm wrong about the strapline 'get in the game' though.
I'm sure I've seen it used before eg.

[angel333] 14/8/2019 14:05

Steady stream of selling today says one market maker.....
Looking like Friday's close will be sub the 30p level.

2-10 Yield curvee almost inverted... Melt up or melt down, either way the next 18 months will be interesting. Hopefully we take off before then. Note to JD - time is limited as of today.

[til fat lady sings] 14/8/2019 13:54

I think EA's strapline is actually 'It's in the Game', isn't it?
