The initiators of the newspaper are Michael Martin and Daniel Schaub. Both worked for many years in the sports editorial department of the Basler Zeitung. They already publish the football magazine Rotweiss. The editorial team also includes Philipp Schrämmli, previously a part-time editor at Baslerstab; Steven Hürlimann, editorial assistant at Basler Zeitung; freelance journalist Basil Gygax and former Volkesstimme editor Daniel Aenishänslin.
The title has a circulation of 20,000 copies and is published in four-color tabloid format. Advertising sales are managed by Publicitas. The title's partners include Basler Kantonalbank, Teleclub, Basel United and Sporttip.
According to a press release from the initiators, reporting on the flagship FC Basel will be an important part of the title. However, the city's number 2, FC Concordia, will also be given space. There will also be stories about the 105 regional football clubs in the city and state of Basel, the national team and this year, of course, Euro 2008.
The title will be published on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays from February 2 and will cost CHF 1 at newsstands. The subscription, which will be delivered from February 16, 2008, is available as part of a promotion until March 31, 2008 for 125 francs for a full year and 70 francs for half a year. After that it will cost 140 and 75 francs respectively.
