THE NO.1 BESTSELLER!’I read it in one sitting, it’s a superb book’ Eamon Dunphy, The Stand ‘An astonishing expos ‘ Martin Ziegler, The Times Over the course of fifteen years, John Delaney ran the Football Association of Ireland as his own personal fiefdom. He had his critics, but his power was never seriously challenged until 2019, when Mark Tighe and Paul Rowan published a sequence of stories in the Sunday Times containing damaging revelations about his personal compensation and the parlous financial situation of the FAI. Delaney’s reputation as a great financial manager was left in tatters. He resigned under pressure, and the FAI was left hoping for a massive bail-out from the Irish taxpayer.Champagne Football is a gripping, sometimes darkly hilarious and often enraging piece of reporting by the award-winning journalists who finally pulled back the curtain on the FAI’s mismanagement.____________’Excellent’ Irish Sun’A jaw-dropping story … brilliant’ Irish Times’Essential reading’ Irish Daily Star’Astonishing … Side-splittingly hilarious’ Guardian’A damning account’ Sunday Independent’An instant classic, one of the all-time great Irish sports books’ Alan English’Excellent … includes staggering detail’ Daily Mail’A cracking read … [An] incredible amount of jaw-dropping detail’ Matt Cooper ‘One of the most hotly-anticipated sport books of the year’ Brendan O’Connor ‘A masterpiece’ Tommy Martin’At last, the truth of his ruinous reign has been rigorously and painstakingly exposed’ Irish Daily Mail ‘An absolutely extraordinary book’ Eoin Mc Devitt, Second Captains ‘Remarkable.
