How did English football - once known for its stale pies, bad book-keeping and hooligans - become a commercial powerhouse and the world's premium popular entertainment?

This was a business empire built in only twenty-five years on ambition, experimentation and gambler's luck. Lead by a motley cast of executives, Russian oligarchs, Arab Sheikhs, Asian Titans, American Tycoons, battle-hardened managers, ruthless agents and the Murdoch media - the Premier League has been carved up, rebranded and exported to phenomenal 185 countries. The United Nations only recognizes 193.

But the extraordinary profit of bringing England's ageing industrial towns to a compulsive global attention has come at a cost. Today, as players are sold for hundreds of millions and clubs are valued in the billions, local fans are being priced out - and the clubs' local identities are fading. The Premier League has become the classic business fable for our globalised world.

Drawing on dozens of exclusive and revelatory interviews from the Boardrooms - including Liverpool's John W. Henry, Tottenham's Daniel Levy, Martin Edwards and David Gill at Manchester United, Arsene Wenger and Stan Kroenke at Arsenal, Manchester City's sporting director Txiki Begiristain, and executives at Chelsea, West Ham, Leicester City and Aston Villa - this is the definitive bustand boom account of how the Premier League product took over the world.

Sobering yet encouraging
Format: Kindle
As always David Jeremiah is clear and precisely on target. We already see what he's pointing at. He just makes sure that we don't miss what it means both in terms of the future and in terms of what we need to do in the present.

Be ye oh so ready!!!
Format: Kindle
This treasure will get you focused on your heavenly home but not without thinking about the ones who don’t know Jesus. You will consider others and their readiness, you will being to think about what can you do that you haven’t already done. But thought the leading of the Holy Ghost, Lord what can I do??? Be the Bible that they can see, see what you say, the love of God, the peace of God resting on you causing others to question do they really have it as good as they think, because if they don’t have Jesus Christ, the answer is No. Be the one they can turn to as they consider their final resting place. Trust in the Lord and the power of the Word of God and the Blood of Jesus.
