ARTICLES RELATED TO Jack Charlton - Personal life | | | |  Jack Charlton - Personal life: Encyclopedia II - Jack Charlton - Back to Elland RoadIn 1967 Charlton had a mixed time. Leeds missed out on domestic honours again and Charlton picked up an injury while playing for England in an infamous 3-2 defeat to Scotland at Wembley, during which he scored. However, he ended the season as the Footballer Of The Year and his future after football as an after-dinner speaker was mapped out by his long speech at the awards ceremony, which earned him a standing ovation.
Charlton finally won some domestic honours with Leeds in 1968 with a League Cup victory over Arsenal. This wasn ...

| | | | Jack Charlton - Personal life: Encyclopedia II - Jack Charlton - Twilight honours at Leeds Leeds won the Fairs Cup again in 1971 but Charlton's goal which gave his side a 1-0 win over Arsenal proved immaterial as the Gunners still snatched the title off Leeds in the last week of the season, before duly completing the "double" with a win over Liverpool in the FA Cup final. Leeds had gone out of the FA Cup with a humiliating fifth round defeat against lowly Colchester United. By now, Charlton was 3 ...

| | | | Jack Charlton - Personal life: Encyclopedia II - Jack Charlton - An honorary Irishman Charlton drifted into the distance to enjoy his pursuit of field sports - he was devoted to hunting, shooting and fishing - before a call came from the FAI to take on the job of managing the Republic of Ireland. Ireland had some great individual players at the time - Liam Brady, Ronnie Whelan, David O'Leary among them - but had no history of qualifying for major tournaments. Charlton, with a little luck, some industrial tactics and a crafty s ...

| | | | Jack Charlton - Personal life: Encyclopedia II - Jack Charlton - Management He was quickly offered the job as manager of Middlesbrough and he led them to promotion back to the top flight in his first season by such a considerable margin that he was given the Manager Of The Year award, an honour never before bestowed on a boss from outside the top division. He famously appeared on a football programme on ITV during this period where he said he'd once had a "little black book" of names of players whom he intended to hurt or exact some form of revenge upon during his playing days. He later said this was ...

| | | | Jack Charlton - Personal life: Encyclopedia II - Jack Charlton - A world champion The Germans took an early lead through Helmut Haller, though Charlton later said he could have blocked the shot but thought goalkeeper Gordon Banks had it covered which he didn't. England equalised shortly afterwards through Geoff Hurst and then as the second half wore on, Charlton came close to scoring the goal which would have put England ahead.
Alan Ball's corner reached Hurst, whose shot from the edge of the area was partly blocked, taking the ball into a high loop in the air. As it dropped, Charlton - up with the attack as ever - ...

| | | | Jack Charlton - Personal life: Encyclopedia II - Jack Charlton - Early seasons with Leeds So began a remarkable one-club career which lasted two decades and, after initial struggles and a flirtation with mediocrity, became one of the most decorated and glittering as football entered the modern era. He played in the Leeds senior team for the first time in April 1953 and within another two years, was a regular fixture.
Leeds were a lower division side in the 1950s, containing one superstar in John Charles and a bunch of honest journeymen professionals. But they won promotion to the First Division i ...

| | | | Jack Charlton - Personal life: Encyclopedia II - Jack Charlton - England comes calling A month earlier, with Charlton approaching his 30th birthday and veteran status, he was called up by manager Alf Ramsey to play for England against Scotland at Wembley. The game ended 2-2 and Charlton was impressive enough to keep his place. With England hosting the 1966 World Cup in just over 12 months' time, the incentive to stay in the side was obvious.
Ramsey chopped and changed other areas of his team as the World Cup neared, but Charlton's partnership at the back with captain Bobby Moore remained a constant. Charlton got his fir ...

| | | | Jack Charlton - Personal life: Encyclopedia II - Jack Charlton - The pit the beat and the pitch Despite being born into a footballing family (his uncle was Jackie Milburn), Charlton didn't seem to be cut out to be a footballer in his younger days, overshadowed completely by the skill of his younger brother Bobby, who was taken on by Manchester United while Jack was doing his National Service.
After quitting a job in a coal mine after just one day, Charlton applied to join the police but was then offered a trial by Leeds in 1950 after they'd spotted him playing as a central defender in an amateur match. The trial game clashed wit ...
