Charlton, Sir Bobby

British athlete

byname of Robert Charlton

born October 11, 1937, Ashington, Northumberland, England

football (football (soccer)) (soccer) player and manager who is regarded as one of the greatest English footballers. On April 21, 1970, he became one of the very few players to have appeared in 100 full international matches; from 1957 to 1973 he made a total of 106 appearances for England—a national record at the time.

A forward on the Manchester United team from 1954 until he retired in 1973, Charlton survived an airplane crash (near Munich, West Germany, on February 6, 1958) in which eight Manchester United regulars were killed. His inspired play then led his team, composed chiefly of reserves, to the Football Association Cup final match that year. He played on the English national team that won the World Cup in 1966 and was voted European Footballer of the Year for his efforts. Charlton captained Manchester United when they were the first English club to win the European Champions Clubs' Cup in 1968. He managed the Preston North End team (1973–75) and was later director of the Wigan Athletic Football Club. In 1984 Charlton became director of the Manchester United football club. He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in 1994.

Charlton was the author of My Soccer Life (1965), Forward for England (1967), My Manchester United Years: The Autobiography (2007), My England Years: The Autobiography (2008), and other books.
