Harry Bradshaw is appointed manager of Woolwich Arsenal
1899
After years of mid-table Second Division mediocrity, Woolwich Arsenal appoints manager Harry Bradshaw, who leaves Burnley despite ending third in the First Division.

Henry Norris takes over Woolwich Arsenal
1910
After a decision by the board in March to liquidate Woolwich Arsenal Football Club and reform into a new limited company, Henry Norris - property developer, Mayor of Fulham and Fulham FC chairman - becomes the majority shareholder at the reformed Woolwich Arsenal. The club is having massive financial difficulties at the time, so Norris' initial plan is to create a London super club by merging Woolwich Arsenal and Fulham, but this is subsequently blocked by the Football League. The plan to have both clubs share Craven Cottage is also blocked.
