Drama, deadline days and a rollercoaster ride through the highs and lows of professional sport. With unprecedented access to the board room (and dressing room), Josh Lewin takes readers behind the scenes of English football on a warts-and-all journey into the heart of Reading FC and its new American ownership.
What does it really take to run a football club? And how does a new owner win over a rabid fanbase still feeling the bruises of the recent past? Especially when that owner is an American who unapologetically shoots from the hip... Rescuing the Royals is the remarkable inside story of a club on its way back from the brink and an all-access view of life outside of the Premier League bubble.
Detailing everything from recruitment and academy policy to the lives of the players, hopes of the fans and balancing of the books, this is an essential read for anybody with an interest in English football beyond the pristine, manufactured point of the pyramid.
