Michael Knighton first came to the attention of the public in August 1989
Michael Knighton first came to the attention of the public in August 1989, when he made a takeover bid of 20 million for Manchester United. At the time, this was a record figure for a British football club and the offer was accepted by chief executive at the time. Knighton promised to invest 10 million in the teams stadium, Old Trafford, as well as re-establish the club as Englands top side.
