Supposedly this Greg Sankey's #1 book. Parallels between the EPL and college sports are amazing. Details the history of the EPL from its founding in 1992,carving itself out from the English Football Association (Prince of Wales is the honorary chairman). Like the NCAA, it governs all level of competition. The 5 wealthiest clubs got sick of abiding by rules set up to benefit small, near 0 budget clubs, much like the Power Conferences vs Division 3 in the NCAA. NCAA Player movement has evolved to match the EPL. Everyone is a free agent at the end of their contract. Transfer windows exist, but blatant 365 say a year tampering is common business, and the only way for the richest clubs to compete fit championships. The wealthiest clubs have sugar daddy owners/boosters who cared much less on financial ROI, than lifting trophies. They can piss away as much money as possible, as long as their team wins I'll add more as I get a chance.
