Jon Woods of Everton FC accused of shady business deals

To his fellow football fans and business folk, Jon Woods is a figure of respect in the English football game but one family is warning that the man is untrustworthy and has effectively denied them millions of pounds in lucrative business deals.

The sorry saga begins in 1997 when Mr Woods entered a business partnership with James Kenny, an extraordinary businessman and keen property developer.
