Charlie Webb
Charles Graham "Charlie" Webb (4 September 1886 – 13 June 1973) was an Irish association football player who represented his country once as an amateur and three times as a professional. He was employed by English club Brighton & Hove Albion for nearly forty years as player and manager.〔
==Early life and career==
Webb was born into a Scottish military family at the Curragh Camp, a military camp in County Kildare, Ireland, where his father, Sergeant William Webb of the Black Watch, was stationed. The family moved around following Sgt Webb's postings so the young Webb spent some of his childhood in Edinburgh Castle before settling in the Worthing, Sussex, area.〔Carder & Harris, ''Albion A–Z'', pp. 254–55.〕〔 As a 16-year-old, Webb played first-team played football for the town club, Worthing F.C., and in his second season, he contributed to Worthing winning a treble of the Sussex Senior Cup, the West Sussex Senior League, and a local charity cup.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History )〕〔Vinicombe, p. 16.〕
In 1904, Webb followed in the family tradition by enlisting in the 2nd Battalion of the Essex Regiment. His trade in the Army was a clerk,〔 and while serving in Ireland, he furthered his football career playing for his regimental team in the Leinster Senior League, and later, in the Irish Football League for Bohemians.〔 He scored freely for his regiment – in November 1907 he scored all seven in a 7–4 defeat of Dublin University – and early the following year was the only player from outside the Irish League to be selected for the Leinster representative team to play Ulster. He had a trial with Scottish club Rangers in 1908, and later that year was chosen to represent the Irish League in a match against the English League.〔 In November, he was capped by the Ireland amateur national team, in a match against the England amateurs in Dublin. Described by ''The Times reporter as "distinctly the best of an indifferent forward line", he scored Ireland's late consolation goal in a 5–1 defeat.
In January 1909, while on Christmas leave from his regiment, Webb played and scored for Brighton & Hove Albion in a Southern League match against West Ham United.〔Carder & Harris, ''Seagulls!'', p. 50.〕 On his return, the Army discovered he had appeared alongside professionals and banned him from military football for 12 months. The Football Association fined the Brighton club £5 "for having approached and played Webb in violation of the Rules of the Association."〔〔Minutes of the Football Association Emergency Committee, quoted in 〕 Rumours that the military authorities would prevent him playing for Bohemians in the semifinal of the Irish Cup proved unfounded, but when Webb finished on the winning side, the ''Irish Times'' reported that Glentoran, the losing club, intended to protest his inclusion, on the grounds that playing in the Southern League made him ineligible to appear in the Irish Cup competition. The result stood, though by the time the final was played, Webb had left the club. Forced to choose between his military and his football career, he bought himself out of the Army and signed for Albion as an amateur.〔
