I've no idea. I'm so crap at things like this that it took me an age to figure out how to get an avatar. When the penny finally dropped, I picked this one at random. But I've kind of grown fond of the little fella if truth be told.
My first visit to the club shop aged 6, and sporting a Liverpool FC bag (coz I thought I knew best) he took me to one side and asked me why. Not accepting my rationale "I follow the crowd, Ive seen what happens to the two kids in my year who support Brighton, Liverpool are the best team in the country" I left the shop with an Seagulls mug & a programme and these words in my ear "we'll beat Liverpool when we get to the top flight" Two years later we reached the promised land and I still treasure the victory's over Liverpool and being able to laugh at the crowd.
That and he took us to the cup final in a helicopter!
For those not old enough to remember - this is a brief summary of his achievements.
One of Bamberís first moves was to sign as manager the outspoken Brian Clough, an appointment which brought the club into the national spotlight. Clough moved on after nine months but always regarded Bamber as the best chairman he worked for.
In 1976 he appointed fellow Walk of Fame personality Alan Mullery as manager, and the club enjoyed a hugely successful period which saw it climb from the Third Division to the First, then into top flight of football.
Under Bamber's leadership the Albion battled to the 1983 FA Cup final, drawing 2-2 with Manchester United before losing the replay.
