The Worst-Run Club in the Country Everton's Downfall Under Farhad Moshiri by Richard Buxton
The Worst-Run Club in the Country offers a comprehensive account of Farhad Moshiri's tenure as the majority shareholder of Everton Football Club, spanning six and a half years. Upon his arrival in February 2016, the British-Iranian billionaire immediately set out to awaken one of English football's long-dormant giants. Managers were equipped with generous transfer budgets, as efforts were made to address the ongoing challenges of finding a new stadium to succeed the beloved yet ageing Goodison Park.However, Moshiri's ambitious plans fell apart just as swiftly as they were initiated. The Toffees found themselves in turmoil both on and off the pitch, as their cherished Premier League status hung by a thread. A staggering ten-point deduction compounded their woes, while division festered among the fanbase, fuelled by the hierarchy appointed by Moshiri. This prompted Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher to label his childhood heroes as 'the worst-run club in the country'.
