E2: James Brown - Four Four Two

As founder and editor of Loaded magazine in the 1990s, James Brown (@jamesjamesbrown) was the architect of Lad culture, the influence of which pervades the football media landscape today. A lifelong Leeds Utd fan, he’s now back in the world of magazine publishing at the helm of FourFourTwo. We talk about his plans for world domination, whether The Damned United was any good, what makes a great magazine and wonder if the current generation of football fans are missing something.
