John Grimwood

John Grimwood (born 25 October, 1898 in Marsden, Tyne and Wear) was an English footballer who played as a half-back. He joined Manchester United in May 1919. On 11 October, 1919, he made his debut for the club in the first Manchester derby, as a replacement for Lal Hilditch who was away on international duty. Able to play in all three half-back positions, he was a utility player for the club. He helped United gain promotion to the First Division in the 1924-25 season. However, he suffered a knee injury for most of the next season, and needed to undergo an operation. In 1925-26, he played at centre half-back regularly, sharing the position with Frank Barson. After scoring 8 goals in 205 appearances for United, he left the club for Aldershot Town in June 1927. He later joined Blackpool and Altrincham. He later worked in the milk industry.
