Managing until death
editFrom my records John 'Jack' Robson managed Manchester United till 31st October 1921, upon which time he resigned as manager due to ill health. He did not manage United until his death just a few months later. He did however remain at United in the capacity of assistant to the newly appointed John Chapman until his death.(JD)
John Chapman was immediately given the job of manager then until a scandal in 1926 cost him his place. —Preceding unsigned comment added by jshd17 (talk • contribs)
