Description
This dynamic study of the business of football considers its income and cost drivers, its capital structure and its accounting policies through UK examples and international comparison. Also addressed are the conflicts arising out of the incorporation of football and the dichotomy between sport and business, leading to a suggested contemporary framework for accountability and business behaviour. STEPHEN MORROW lectures in financial reporting and accounting theory at Heriot- Watt University. His research concentrates on the financial aspects of the football industry and he has had several papers published in that area. He is a regular contributor to both Radio Scotland and Radio 5 Live on issues relating to the football business.
