The Worst-Run Club in the Country: Everton's Downfall Under Farhad Moshiri

Regular price £16.99

Tax included.

From the publisher:

The Worst-Run Club in the Country is the definitive story of Farhad Moshiri's six and a half years as the majority shareholder of Everton Football Club.

From the moment of his February 2016 arrival, the British-Iranian billionaire set about trying to rouse one of English football's perennial sleeping giants. No expense was spared in arming managers with substantial transfer budgets while he also sought to right the wrongs of the club's endless quest for a new stadium to replace their spiritual yet outdated Goodison Park home.

But Moshiri's grand designs unravelled as quickly as they had begun. On and off the pitch, the Toffees soon descended into chaos, with their long-standing Premier League status in repeated jeopardy, the club hit with a record ten-point deduction and division sown within the fanbase by Moshiri's appointed hierarchy. All this led Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher to declare his boyhood heroes to be 'the worst-run club in the country'.
