Remembering some of the greatest names in British (and worldwide) sport - recounting highlights of their best stories, and providing an insight into the personalities that entertained so many people.My story began in Manchester in the early 1980's. The City was alive with a vibrant business community and that mixed with a sporting heritage that is second to none. It provided the inspiration for what became MBN Promotions who entertained over a million guests, until I sold the organisation in 2006.The baby boomer generation and many others will enjoy cherished memories of such heroes as, Sir Stanley Matthews, Sir Henry Cooper and Freddie Trueman OBE. Add great speakers like Gordon ‘Broon from Troon' Brown, Wilf McGuinness, Jack Blanchflower, Jack Charlton, Willie John McBride, Geoff Miller, David Lloyd and many more.Enjoy a trip through the golden age of great sporting speakers and comedy personalities, from the organisers point of view, with some of the greats of British sport.
