Di bawah ini saya sisipkan beberapa ringkasan hasil studi. Empat studi
sosiologi olah raga saya jadikan contoh. Selanjutnya di bawah ada paparan
singkat tentang studi sosiologi sepak bola di Eropa (beberapa poin penting saya
ketik dengan font biru).
Ini bukan hanya supaya terlihat cerdas, bukan untuk dramatisasi. Saya cuma
hanya ingin mengangkat fakta bahwa segala yang berkembang di Eropa dan Amerika
merupakan hasil satu desain besar yang dipersiapkan secara matang dan
diterapkan melalui berbagai macam strategi: baik strategi pemasaran (marketing
n management), pemassalan (sosiologi, komunikasi massa, termasuk PR n
advertising, dan psikologi massa), dan ekonomi (makro maupun mikro, termasuk
konsep ekspansi dan invasi pasar).
Di sini saya cuma berharap Bola-ML menjadi melting pot pemikiran dan gagasan
serta anggotanya bisa melihat fenomena olahraga tidak an sich sebagai
"peristiwa alam", melainkan secara kritis bisa mengambil posisi yang lebih dari
sekadar "pasar timur jauh". Syukur2 bisa ada gagasan soal olah raga nasional
seperti yang diminta Pak Suryo dari Bolavaganza. Iya kan?
Jangan menanggapi segala hal dengan sinislah. Kuno itu. Ada orang pake
terminologi lalu dibilang istilah aneh. Kita kan saling berpendapat dan saling
menghargai pendapat. Dikritik karena pake bahasa kekerasan kok marah. Penulis
di koran dan majalah juga kerap dikritik karena menggunakan bahasa beraroma
kekerasan seperti dikangkangi, dilibas, disikat. Dan mereka menerima tuh. Tanpa
kritik dan pengembangan, kita gak ke mana-mana donk.
Motif saya cuma satu: saya punya impian satu saat bisa memandang sepak bola
nasional sejajar dengan sepak bola Eropa. PSSI susah diharapkan? Ya kita mulai
diskusi di sini. Hubungannya dengan sepak bola Eropa? Kita ppelajari mereka
sebagai studi kasus, kita transfer hal-hal baiknya ke sini. Itu aja kok.

The Sociology of Football:
Anthony King has published widely on football, social theory and, latterly,
the military. Although diverse, Anthony Kings research is unified by the
attempt to connect broad historical transformations with detailed and situated
ethnographies of particular groups, to an illuminate contemporary social
change. His first book, The End of the Terraces (Leicester University Press,
1998), sought to explain the institutional dynamics behind the development of
the English Premier League in early 1990s and the way the commercialisation of
football impacted on fan groups at Manchester United. The European Ritual:
football in the New Europe (Ashgate 2003), extrapolated from this study to
examine the transformation of European football from the 1950s to the present.
The fundamental argument of The European Ritual is that European football is
now becoming transnational. From the 1950s to the 1990s, European football was
organised on an international basis in which the national
federations retained sovereignty over independent national leagues, with more
or less discrete player markets, and the competitions between European club
sides were conceived as international matches. A new regime is now emerging. A
pan-European player market has emerged post-Bosman and the major European clubs
have become nodes of economic and playing power. They exploit local talent
while simultaneously creating powerful transnational networks which are
subverting the autonomy of national leagues and federations. The clubs have
paradoxically become more local and transnational at the same time. The
emergence of this transnational order has induced parallel responses from fans
across Europe who are reformulating their solidarities and social identities.
New forms of localism are emerging among the fans in response to this
transnational order. The fans are also establishing new transnational links for
themselves. Like the clubs, the fans are becoming more local and
transnational. In this way, the book has sought to connect the concrete and
often visceral expression of identity by fans at a local level with dramatic
institutional transformations at the level of multinational media corporations
and the state.
