THE NO.1 BESTSELLER! 'I read it in one sitting, it's a superb book'
Eamon Dunphy, The Stand 'An astonishing expose' 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
last year, 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. In Champagne
Football, Tighe and Rowan dig deep into the story of Delaney's
career and of the FAI's slide into ruin. They show how he
surrounded himself with people whose personal loyalty he could
count on, and a board that failed to notice that the association's
finances were shot. They detail Delaney's skilful cultivation of
opinion-formers outside the FAI. And they document the culture of
excess that Delaney presided over and benefited from, to the
detriment of the organization he led. 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'

Martin 'At last, the truth of his ruinous reign has been rigorously
and painstakingly exposed' Irish Daily Mail 'An absolutely

desperate story of Irish football but also a book about how Ireland
works. Outstanding' Dion Fanning
