The Price of Football: Understanding Football Club Finance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781788216838)

The first edition of The Price of Football quickly established itself as the go-to guide to understanding football club finance for the serious fan. Kieran Maguire, one of the UK's top football finance analysts, shows how professional clubs operate as businesses and explains, in non-technical language, how to read, understand and interrogate club accounts.

As a clear-headed analysis and presentation of the financial imperatives and challenges facing football clubs across the English and Scottish Leagues, it has become a welcome resource not only for students of the industry, but by a wider constituency of supporters looking to understand their club's latest transfer deal, or season ticket price.

This fully revised and updated third edition includes analysis of the most recent club accounts, the latest rulings on club governance, as well as coverage of recent regulation breaches, changes of ownership, bankruptcies and financial irregularities.
