Keith Haslam is a former owner, CEO and chairman of Mansfield Town. Haslam bought the club in 1993. During his tenure, he amassed personal and inter-company loans of over £1,000,000 at their peak.

On 26 April 2008, following the club's relegation to the Conference, Haslam was punched and kicked by Mansfield fans, requiring hospital treatment. At the end of the 2007-08 season, he sold the club to a consortium led by Andy Perry. In December 2008, Haslam controversially announced a club dividend of £2.44m, £2.36m of which went to a company belonging to him. The legality of that was challenged by the new owners.

Year Of Birth Missing (living People)
A year or annus is the orbital period of a planetary body, for example, the Earth, moving in its orbit around the Sun. Due to the Earth's axial tilt, the course of a year sees the passing of the seasons, marked by change in weather, the hours of daylight, and, consequently, vegetation and soil fertility. In temperate and subpolar regions around the planet, four seasons are generally recognized: spring, summer, autumn and winter. In tropical and subtropical regions, several geographical sectors do not present defined seasons; but in the seasonal tropics, the annual wet and dry seasons are recognized and tracked. A calendar year is an approximation of the number of days of the Earth's orbital period, as counted in a given calendar. The Gregorian calendar, or modern calendar, presents its calendar year to be either a common year of 365 days or a leap year of 366 days, as do the Julian calendars. For the Gregorian calendar, the average length of the calendar year (the ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
