'Jaw-dropping' - Daily Mail 'A gripping tale, full of insight. Blackhurst is an enormously talented writer' - City A. M.
Manchester United is more than just a football team; it's an institution. But, when the Glazer family took charge in 2005, they immediately plunged it into record levels of debt. Their reign has coincided with fan protests and a decline in Manchester United's fortunes on the pitch . . . if not on the balance sheet.
Informed by interviews with key behind-the-scenes figures, The World's Biggest Cash Machine sees award-winning reporter Chris Blackhurst chart the history of Manchester United - from its start as a community-driven club to the sale of a minority stake to British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe - as the Premier League turns into a playground for billionaire owners.
'Brilliant . . . [a] very insightful account' - Simon Jordan, talkSPORT presenter and author of Be Careful What You Wish For
