Brian Scovell was one of Fleet Street’s most celebrated sports writers, serving 40 years on the Daily Mail. An author of 26 books, Brian asks: ‘are today’s ghost writers more keen on making money than producing a quality book about a famous sportsman…?’
Brian has had four books nominated for the British Sports Books Awards and has won two national newspaper awards. He has ghost written 11 books, including Football Gentry: The Cobbold Brothers, about the former chairmen of Ipswich Town Football Club, and Time on the Grass, the first autobiography of Sir Bobby Robson, former manager of England – and Ipswich Town. His recently published accounts of Roy Keane and Kevin Pietersen achieved bestseller status.
