Well jeffs esports are all over the club website I see, it’s a pity he and fosun aren't as passionate about the actual club of Wolverhampton wanderers than they are about “ wolves esports team”

According to Wikipedia, Esports is short for electronic sports and is a form of competition using video games.
Esports often takes the form of organized, multiplayer video game competitions, particularly between professional players, played individually or as teams.

View Wikipedia for more information.

Basically playing computer games online in large competitions (mostly the new versions of FIFA which I believe is now called FC26, after FIFA pulled the plug on copy rights) buddy.

Me and my mates always laugh that we were born in the wrong generation as you now get grown arse adults making an INSANE amount of money to play footy games like FIFA professionally! We used to play them at Uni enough to be deemed pro I reckon but back then we were just sad cases, now it'd be a good career move! ?

You could argue it is a bit silly but then again. Us getting so emotional over a bunch of overpaid people running around on a grass field after a round ball. I guess it's a matter of choice.

Is the e sport business part of the Wolves football club or another arm of Fosun?
If it is, there appears to have been zero income in the accounts coming to the club so far despite all the noise?
One for the future or Fosun merely using the brand to help themselves not Wolves?

OK thanks. That’s a genuine question as I don’t know. Is it therefore correct that Fosun are using Wolves brand in China in esports very successfully? If they’re making a lot of money then I suppose they’re not really desperate to preserve our Premier status. Am I wide of the mark on this please?

V good q 47.
Does the brand rely on Wolves premier league status?
This is probably the question upon which Wolves season hangs as with a huge spend in January is might still be possible to survive - albeit it is going to be very tight and will require an amazing never seen before transfer window!

If you go on internet wolves esport, the income and invest numbers are available. Then you can compare with the fotball club numbers and investments. I can't at the moment because it's Friday night and I am in garage destroying my body with Black Sabbath and whisky.

Tks Skrekken.
I have had a look and the info is somewhat patchy with a figure as you said for income, (but none for costs), and a number for an investment.
The conclusion reached by the report I read seems to be that e sports makes no money whatsoever - which would seem to fit with the Wolves FC accounts .
However as this thread commented Wolves are investing in the activity fairly heavily i.e.

it is sucking cash out of the club.
Maybe at some distant date in the future it will make sense but right now it is an irrelevant distraction that obviously is more of interest to Jeff than the real game and the real business.
He clearly is not just incompetent but a fool as well!
Fiddling whilst Rome burns!
