David Frank Bellotti (born August 13, 1943) is a British politician and former chief executive of Brighton & Hove Albion F.C.
Bellotti contested the seat of Lewes in the 1983 and 1987 general elections under the Liberal banner. He then won the parliamentary seat of Eastbourne for the Liberal Democrats in a 1990 by-election following the murder of Ian Gow MP by the IRA. Two years later Bellotti was defeated by Nigel Waterson in the 1992 general election in which John Major's Conservative Party was re-elected.
David Bellotti returned to local government regaining a seat on the council. He then became CEO of Brighton & Hove Albion, a position which gained him much local notoriety due to his involvement in the sale of the club's ground. For a time he was also the chairman of the Sussex police authority.
After leaving the football club and losing his council seat Bellotti moved to Bath and became election agent for Don Foster MP. In May 2003 David Bellotti was elected councillor for Lyncombe ward on Bath and North East Somerset council.
