Senior Teacher in Accountancy and member of Football Industries Group, University of Liverpool I'm a chartered accountant who has been involved in financial education since 1989. I teach a number of courses at Liverpool on financial reporting and management accounting. I am a member of the Football Industries Group, which is a team of football industry experts. We run the original and still the only Football Industries MBA (FIMBA), in partnership with FA Learning, for those in pursuit of a career in the business of football. I love mixing technology with teaching, have won the UK's best finance lecturer award, as well as a number of local ones from when I taught in higher education in Manchester. Love my football team, my cricket team, my dog and my wife (not necessarily in that order). I have had fun and games appearing in the media on BBC national and local TV and Radio, Granada, The Times, FT, Independent, Guardian, Manchester Evening News and others talking about general finance and business issues, specialising in sport finance, the budget. My aim is to take the fear out of numbers, if you can add 2+2 that's all that is required, the rest is just detail.
