You don't have to be a Palace fan to enjoy it, nor do you have to be particularly fond of Simon Jordan. While we do get to learn about how he built his multi-million pound fortune, the majority of the books is based on his work in football, and only briefly touches on more personal issues - which is good. Of course it's only one man's story, and of course he will most likely have been kinder to himself than to his enemies, but regardless it still provides a great insight into the bizarre and illogical world in which football operates, and the many shady characters within it.I was one of the many football fans who disliked Simon Jordan for no reason than his unusual appearance and smarmy personality on TV, but over the course of the book I grew to like him to a certain extent, and really feel sorry for him towards the end. I shared his frustration at agents, and at the football establishment in general, which is severely in need of modernisation.After finishing a few football books that were heavy on data, statistics and tactics, this was a nice, relaxed read. Something that would be perfect for a summer holiday. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you truly want to know what's goes in behind ... *by P***O on Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2017* If you truly want to know what's goes in behind the scenes at a Premier League club, and see things through the eyes of its owner, then this is the book for you. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ English soccer is a mess *by J***D on Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2013* Insightful and gripping. Clichéd adjectives, I know, but true. This is the story of Simon Jordan, a self-made British multi-millionaire whose abiding wish was to use his money to buy the soccer club he and his father grew up with and make it into the Premier League success he knew it could be. The tale does not have a happy ending. The very same single-minded grit, determination and brashness that made him such a success in the early days of cell phones caused him to run afoul of every entrenched interest in English soccer. 23 million pounds sterling later he walked away a sad and disillusioned man. The bottom line: Crass and unsophisticated as he could be, English soccer winds up looking far worse. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/150262837-be-careful-what-you-wish](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/150262837-be-careful-what-you-wish) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
