Bio
My name is Dr David Kennedy. I am a researcher / author whose previous work has looked at football club governance. I graduated from Leeds University in 2004 after completing my PhD thesis ‘The Division of Everton and Liverpool Football Clubs into Hostile Factions: The Development of Professional Football Organisation on Merseyside, 1878-1914’
This website is designed to showcase my own writing on football governance and the social history of Merseyside professional football.
