W. J. Smith

W. J. Smith

W. J. Smith was a secretary/committee member of Aston Villa F.C. from August 1926 to May 1934. During this time, this was the equivalent of the modern day managers position. Before 1934 the team was selected by a committee. Smith was the last person to be a "Secretary," Jimmy McMullan was appointed as manager when WJ Smith retired.

Name

In all official correspondence his name is noted as WJ Smith and as such his real name remains something of a mystery to the modern day fan.
