Jonathan Fowler Chaplin (10 October 1882 – 15 April 1952) was a Scottish football player and manager. A left back, Chaplin played for Dundee over two spells,[1] winning the Scottish Cup in 1910, and represented the Scottish League.[2] He also played for Tottenham Hotspur[3] and Manchester City in England.[4]

## Career

[edit]

Chaplin signed for Tottenham Hotspur in May 1905 and didn't make his debut till November which occurred in the Western League against Plymouth Argyle.[5] He went on to make a total of 102 appearances for the club.[5]

He later managed Huddersfield Town[6] after serving as trainer under Herbert Chapman (formerly his teammate at Tottenham and boss at Leeds City),[7] leading the club to runners-up finishes in the Football League in 1926–27 and 1927–28, and to the 1928 FA Cup Final which they lost to Blackburn Rovers.[8]

His brothers were fellow professional players George Chaplin and Alex Chaplin.[9]
