Management
After a brief spell at Oldham Athletic he was appointed the first ever manager of Aston Villa in 1934. Before his appointment the team was selected by a Committee. However, the move proved disastrous, resulting in Villa's first ever relegation in 1935-36 after 61 years in the top flight. He later managed Notts County (1936–1937) and Sheffield Wednesday (1937–1939). He died in November 1964.
