The ECHO’s Everton reporter Chris Beesley is joined by author and Evertonian Nathan O’Hagan for the latest edition of the Royal Blue podcast as the pair talk all things Colin Harvey.

Chris dives into Nathan’s new book Succession about Colin Harvey and his time as Everton manager.

Having written novels The World Is (Not) A Cold Dead Place; Out Of The City and The Last Sane Man On Earth, Nathan has also penned articles about football, culture, current affairs and men’s mental health for The New World; Byline Times; Four Four Two; Men’s Fitness and Metro.

Succession explores an often-overlooked period in Everton’s modern history under arguably the greatest servant the club has ever known. The book offers a sympathetic, clear-eyed account as it tracks the initial enthusiasm surrounding Harvey’s appointment, the weight of expectation and his struggle to replicate the success he helped create as a player and coach.
