Item description from seller

Neuware - 'A very funny book that tackles some serious football issues.'Gary LinekerEver dreamed of setting up your own football club Join the team behind The Price of Football podcast as they start a (fictional) football club and discover what's really going on behind the scenes of the beautiful game.Buying a football club will set you back a few quid, but you've also got to pass the Premier League and EFL's 'fit and proper persons test'.

Where to find a shirt sponsor What should the mascot be - is a dog called Rover too obvious Can they pay the women's team the same as the men's team (Spoiler alert: hardly anyone else does.) And how can they get Messi to the Kleanwell Stadium next season, like they promised the fans Roofing over the toilets, paying the electric on the floodlights, salary caps, parachute payments and avoiding bankruptcy, never mind relegation - owning a football club isn't all about stuffing prawn sarnies and quaffing champagne in the directors' box.Unfit and Improper Persons is informed, funny and, thanks to exclusive interviews with those who've been there, done that, it lays bare the labyrinthine world of football finance.…
