English
soccer
manager
, born in
Sheffield
, South
Yorkshire
.
Howard Wilkinson was never a great player, being released by his hometown club
Sheffield Wednesday
after three seasons as a pro, but he more than made up for it as a
manager
.
He started out at
Notts County
before being headhunted by his former club and taking up the job at
Hillsborough
following the resignation of
Jack Charlton
in 1983. In his first season in charge of
Wednesday
, he took them up to the
First Division
and built a hungry, physical side that finished 5th in the League and upset the likes of
Manchester United
and
Liverpool
on the way.
Leaving
Hillsborough
in 1988, he went to
Leeds United
and led them to the
League title
in 1992.
Howard remained at
Leeds
until 1997, when he was sacked. Since then he has been a part of the
England
national team setup, as
Under-21s
coach, Technical Director and
caretaker manager
.
