The Matthew Harding Tapes: Part 2 (with Mark Killick)

Mark Killick was best friends with Matthew Harding, the pair finding kinship owing to a shared love for Chelsea Football Club. Killick was also an executor of Harding's will following his tragic death in October 1996 and speaks publicly with The Blueprint for the first time. In a varied interview, Killick provides new insight to Harding's hopes and ambitions for Chelsea, including making the Blues the preeminent club in London and the Premier League. Harding also sought new investment for Chelsea, which Killick explains may well have involved the billionaire owner of Virgin, Richard Branson. *** The full eight-part narrative series of The Blueprint: How Chelsea FC Changed Football will follow "The Matthew Harding Tapes" on 31 May 2023 as we tell the inside story of modern Chelsea.
