In August 2010, Everton Football Club unveiled the Everton Timeline. Stretching around Goodison Park, the 123 monochromatic images chart the major events in the club’s illustrious past. Though updated periodically, the final image on Goodison Road celebrates the signing of Romelu Lukaku in 2014. Did time stand still for Everton Football Club, or has it simply failed to acknowledge the struggles which occurred during one of the most eventful periods in its 145-year history?

Incorporating a foreword from Dr David France, this is the book that fills in all the gaps, on and off the field, during the tumultuous years of Farhad Moshiri’s ownership. More than a book about modern-day football, The Unofficial Everton Timeline documents unbridled ambition crashing into chaotic reality between 2014-2023. It is a comprehensive and detailed chronical of important matches, big dreams, colossal financial investments, unproductive transfers, property deals and engineering marvels. But most of all, it is a book about people: moneymen, conflicting egos in the boardroom, highly rewarded players, and the real heroes of the story – a community of passionate Everton fans.
