[edit] Managerial career

[edit] Burnley 1899–1902

Mangnall started his managerial career with Burnley in 1899 and in his first season the club were relegated to the Second Division. In the 1902–03 season, Burnley were forced to apply for re-election to the league and Mangnall left the club.

He was hired as the third secretary of Manchester United and the second after the club changed its name from Newton Heath (the term 'manager' was not used at United until the arrival of Jack Robson). He was to become the first successful manager at United. He started his management at Manchester United in 1903 and saw his team narrowly miss promotion in his first two seasons before success at the third attempt. In the first season in the First Division the club finished in mid-table. However, in only their second season in the First Division, he managed United to their first ever League Championship in 1907–08 by a nine-point margin over Aston Villa. The following year saw United drop below mid-table but the club won its first FA Cup with a 1-0 victory in the final against Bristol City, the winner scored by Sandy Turnbull. The following season saw no new silverware but the team improved its league position to fifth. The following season the club were champions again, again beating Aston Villa into second place, this time by just one point; that would be club's last league championship for over 40 years - its longest ever run without a league title. The next season was his last in charge at the club; he would eventually leave for a similar position at Manchester City.

Mangnall managed for twelve years but did not win anything.
