A Driven Life - Ant Smits - Bog

- Anton Johnson

Bag om A Driven Life

An Outrageous, Unbelievable (but True!) Story of a Business MagicianAnton Johnson lifts the lid on secrets behind football's boardroom doors (as a football club's owner). He kept a lion for a pet, kept two crocodiles in a nightclub, was nearly drowned by a squib, and once tied to a tree by a bull! Anton Johnson has rubbed shoulders with the famous and infamous, including Margaret Thatcher and Reggie Kray, plus many sports and entertainment personalities. From humble beginnings as a butcher's son, he carved a career in entertainments, farming, pub and club management. He realized a dream to own a football club, but corruption and boardroom back-stabbing turned that dream into a nightmare. Anton was in the way when he refused to bend the rules for those putting personal profit before football. He lost everything, but left a football legacy that no one is likely to match. True to form, The Showman bounced back and made a fortune again. No-one can put him down. His charity and sponsorship work spans a lifetime, including as a volunteer at the 2012 Olympics. This is truly a great, inspiring story of a man who would not give up. Pick your copy up today.
