Synopsis
This is a story about one man's fight to save a football club... and how a real fan can make a difference.
When Dick Knight took over in 1997, Brighton & Hove Albion were on the brink of extinction. The Goldstone Ground had been sold without any proper plans for a replacement, a groundshare agreement had been signed for the team to play 75 miles away in Kent, fans were furious... oh, and the club was two games away from relegation out of the Football League!
When Knight stood down 12 years later in 2009, construction had begun on a stunning 23,000 capacity community stadium and the club had won three promotions in four seasons. Mad Man is the story of how the maverick advertising guru behind Wonderbra's famous 'Hello Boys' poster campaign led Brighton & Hove Albion back from the brink, then home to Brighton and eventually into the new Amex stadium.
The inside track on two decades at the club - from the struggles to take over the failing club to the seemingly endless battle for Falmer, not to mention 10 managers and numerous rollercoaster seasons - Mad Man is a fascinating, inspiring and often hilarious insight into this critical period in the history of the club, and also into what it's really like to be chairman of a modern football club.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. The inspirational story of the man who rescued Brighton & Hove Albion FC from oblivion, a 15 year struggle that saw the homeless club battling for survival until the triumphant opening of their brand new Amex Stadium in August 2011. The inside story of a saga that captured the hearts and minds of football supporters up and down the country, Mad Man explains how advertising executive and lifelong Albion fan, Dick Knight, took over the club after its ground had been sold to property developers, rescued it from immediate extinction and then began the long and tortuous battle to find a new home. Galvanising the local community, Knight's incredible triumph was to mobilise and maximise fan power and use it to defeat the greed and opportunism of a small number of businessmen, and then overcome the monumental hurdles of bureaucracy and planning that stood in the way of the new home that was essential to securing the future of the club. Told with immense humour and packed with hilarious anecdotes, Mad Manis a football feelgood story from the heart and soul of the game. The inspirational story of the man who rescued Brighton & Hove Albion FC from oblivion, a 15 year struggle that saw the homeless club battling for survival until the triumphant opening of their brand new Amex Stadium in August 2011.
