George Allison

The series on George Allison is one of a series of articles on Arsenal’s managers published by the AISA Arsenal History Society.

A full index to the series on managers can be found here 

As with so many of the series of articles on our blog, this is work in progress.  If you would like to add an article or correct an error – or expand on one point, we would love to hear from you.  If you have a complete article please send it to Tony.Attwood@aisa.org   If you want to comment or correct a point, just drop it in the comments section at the foot of the article.

Obviously we hope eventually to have the most comprehensive review ever of all the Arsenal managers – it is, as I say, work in progress.
