Jabba's Comments |
Jack Lambert was very much 'the one that got away' for Leeds. He
played in just one Division Two fixture before being released to
Doncaster Rovers. 18 months later, Arsenal paid £2,000 for
his services and he was to prove a vital part of Herbert Chapman's
multiple championship-winning side, and bagged a goal in the 1930
FA Cup Final win over Chapman's old club, Huddersfield. He had a
brief spell in management with non-league Margate, but had returned
to Arsenal on the coaching staff when he met his death in a car
accident in 1940.
