COMPETITIVE MINUTES. FACT.
Steve Black’s methodology will keep your prize assets, as well as your no-so-prized assets, available for selection for the maximum period throughout the season.
We offer an 80% reduction in the frequency of soft tissue injuries through the use of Steve’s advanced methodology and professional expertise.
Reducing your injury list consitently throughout the season can make the difference
The logic is undeniable. Having your best players on the pitch gives any team a better chance of winning, which in turn gives the team a better chance of finishing higher up the league, increasing revenues, building momentum, increasing sponsorship levels, and ultimately keeping everyone from the groundstaff to the manager in a job.
Lose your best player to a structural injury e.g. a broken leg and that is unlucky. However, lose that player to a groin strain and it will have been preventable through Steve’s expert knowledge. and techniques.
Black’s Method lets you do more with less, a crucial advantage to have in today’s ‘financial fair play’ arena. Smaller squads mean the player you do have need to be available.

We are offering a consultancy package based on performance.
Steve Black’s methodology will cost an upfront retainer of £25,000 plus vat and travel expenses. The retainer is refundable in the event of non-performance.
Our fee is a simple 20% of the reduction in wasted wages paid to players sidelined with soft tissue injuries.
The Maths
One star player out for 3 months with a hamstring pull could cost upwards of £1m+ in wages paid for no return. We offer those weeks back and all the benefits that go with it.
We propose to assess and agree the club’s soft tissue injury bill over the past five seasons. Once we agree a figure, we will simply invoice for the reduction at the end of each quarter. The performance is easily measurable and statistically accurate.
A fair commercial package for an exciting sporting opportunity. Rather than asking “can we afford this?”, the real question is:
Can you afford not to?
NO RESULTS, NO FEE.
Calling All Chairman, MDs, CEOs & Finance Directors
In 2010 the English Premier League moved up to £800,000 per place. Similar figures are seen in the Champion’s League where a single win in the group stage merits £800,000. Turning a loss into a draw is worth £400,000.
Selecting from a fuller squad is an extremely profitable benefit. It allows clubs to compete more effectively across several competitions as well as offering more selection options for crucial games.
Win More
One key player missing at a crucial time of the season can make the diffference between the season being successful or a failure.
The stakes get higher at the end of the season; with players needing to be available for cup finals and crucial play-offs.
Higher Position
With your best players on the pitch and a fuller squad to choose from, the reduction of soft tissue injuries stands to help you finish higher in the league.
This potentially makes the difference between relegation, europa or champions league places, with all the financial consequences of either.
Increased Revenue
Finish 3 places higher and the club will receive an additional £2.4m in prize money.
Higher finishes have compound effects; european qualifications, increased sponsorship revenue, happier players, and increased merchandise sales to happier fans. A powerful positive momentum.
CAN YOU AFFORD IT?
Example Cost
Club X has averaged a cumulative spend of £4.6m per season paid to players unavailable for selection due to soft tissue injury; hamstring pulls, groin strains, calf strains etc. This figure is calculated by taking each players wage (e.g £25k per week), multiplying by the period of the injury (e.g. 4 weeks) and calculating a figure (4 x £25k = £100k wasted wage). Over a season this cumulative figure adds up to a very significant seven figure spend. This total is easily verifiable from independent records widely available.
We charge 20% of the reduction in this cumulative figure. This figure is unlikely to exceed £1m and the financial benefits are highly likely to exceed £5m when all taken into account.
Steve’s methodology offers exceptional value financially, as well as offering exceptional value on the pitch.
