Guy Woodward started his journalistic career at AB Europe, a now defunct magazine for the casino industry. He then progressed to the sports section of The Guardian, from where he went on to a 10-year stint at consumer wine title Decanter, latterly as its editor. After editing the independently published Food and Travel Magazine, he moved to Harrods Publishing as deputy editor before taking up his current role at Club Oenologique.
A former chair of the British Society of Magazine Editors, he has made regular appearances on TV, radio and in the national press commentating on wine, travel and media. That all got a bit much though, so these days he likes to spend as much spare time (and, where appropriate, work time) visiting nice restaurants and chronicling their bathrooms, among other things.
Until this year, he was the embattled chief executive of the world’s most famous football club. Now Ed Woodward is more concerned with the terraces of the Douro Valley than Old Trafford. Guy Woodward (no relation) hears his story
